During the plague when he burst in to confess to sorcery, I couldn't quite believe it. I got him out of trouble with the first excuse I could think of. Even now I'm surprised how fast I leapt to his defence.

But then, scarcely anyone had known of Gwen's father's illness. And when Morgana had come to tell me Merlin knew the cause of the disease, and where it could be defeated, I'd begun to wonder at the coincidence.

Barely breathed words, that just reached my ears as a supernatural wind fanned the torch flames towards the beast, convinced me.


A/N: I apologise for my tardiness, my first week at work caught up with me and I basically slept over the weekend, but here is your update!

Thanks to all readers and reviewers. I'd like to respond to all feedback but isn't letting me at the moment, but please know it is much appreciated.

If you have read and have time, please review. Thanks!
