Irony of Secrets - Dreams
Galaya
This is my first (posted) fan fiction. This is set in season 4. I really like stories in which Merlin helps Arthur in plain sight (as Emrys.)
Also, if you see any misplaced words (words that don't make sense where they are, for example "Merlin, for all he tried, could not get the sell to work,") blame it on my keyboard. It doesn't always cooperate with me.
Chapter one: Dreams
Merlin collapsed onto his bed after a long day's work of serving the King of Camelot and keeping his true identity a secret. What was the point of keeping his magic a secret if the guilt, deceit, lies, and distrust were a fate worse than death?
'Because, if you don't, Camelot could fall,' the young warlock reminded himself.
Sighing, he rolled over and looked at the ceiling. He often hated his destiny. Why couldn't it let him be, let him live a normal life? With those questions plaguing him, Merlin slipped into unconsciousness.
His dreams proved to be quite unusual that night. First, there were the giant, fire-breathing pigs. Then, of course, there were the perilous, pink griffons trying to steal his spell book. And, well, many other strange things.
But then his dreams took on a darker twist.
He found himself, in the dream, in a spacious, damp, and dark room. Peering around cautiously, he was quick to discern that he was the only one there.
An ominous, and unmistakably female voice broke through the eerie silence.
"Eeeeemryyyysss! Eeeeeemryyyyssss! Eeeemryyyyssss!" it whispered.
"What? What do you want?" the warlock shouted.
"Eeeemryyysss," was the only reply he got.
"Please, answer me!"
"Eeeemryyysss…"
"Wait!" Merlin cried out.
But it was too late; the dream was already fading.
I know. Short chapter. But it is only my first! Who knows what I will do next? Will I have griffons steal his spell book? … Well… I guess not… But it would be fun, though! I'm writing a story, based off of this chapter, about Merlin's dream. It is called, The Midnight Misadventures of Merlin's Spell Book. Please check it out! Also, in Merlin's dreams, I was going to have giant, fire-breathing grasshoppers, not pigs. But I wasn't sure grasshoppers would fit with the story, so, they're pigs.
Anyways, please review! Next chapter: Conversations and Council Meetings
