The drums start to play, like every other execution. The new queen stands strong on her platform. To her right stand, 4 chained people not sure whether to be happy, cry or comfort everyone else.
The prisoner is brought in chains and tied to the stake. He stared up at the royal box. He should be begging for his life but instead he wants forgiveness.
Guards came from each side and drop their torches. The stake caught on fire. Arthur Pendragon felt tears going down his face. Crying for the man who was his father. Even when knowing most but not all of the lies that his father had told. He tried to lean towards Merlin, he needed his lover right now even if his father would never have accept them.
Merlin chained up next to Arthur, didn't know what to feel. On one hand this man dying had destroyed his life, people and family. But, his heart was going towards his best friend and love, who was about to lose his father. Merlin knew exactly what that feels like.
Gwen tried to comfort her friend and prince. She felt nothing towards the man burning. He ruined her whole life.
Gaius had tears going down his face. He remembered when this man was a friend and didn't kill innocent people. When he had a beautiful wife and ruled the kingdom kindly. He cried for the friend he lost long ago.
The prisoner started to scream from the pain coming from the fire. Morgana sat down on her throne, for reasons unknown her legs wouldn't carry her. The burning man might have scared her but he treated her like a princess. He gave her a good life.
She whispered while the fires went higher. "Sorry father, but you deserve this for your crimes", but she wasn't sure if she meant it.
The fire covered the stake. The prisoner's last breath left his month. Uther Pendragon left the earth the same way he had forced all those innocent people. But, his death gave motivation to his son to get Camelot back.
