It was time, Merlin was about to finish the spell, all he had to do was mutter some words and then his magic would be bound, what would it feel like? Would it be good or bad? He closed his eyes and breathed out a breath that he hadn't realised he had been holding, there was only one was to find out.
"Mo draiochta ceangal leis an fainne seo"
The words were out his mouth in a flurry of golden as he felt his strength escape him and the feeling of warmth left him, he opened his eyes that he realised he had closed and looked around him, the bowl that he had been using was empty except for the ring that lay in the middle, he bit his lip as he stared at it for a few moments and then put his fingers into the bowl and scooped it up, he could feel the raw power pulsating inside of it as he held the small object, he smiled softly to himself and heard something from the other room. Quickly he hid the ring in his pocket and cleared up the mess as his mentor came in.
"What are you doing Merlin I thought I heard shouting"
"No, your mind must have been deceiving you" The young Warlock or man seemed to cheekily reply as his mentor just scowled and waved him down for breakfast that he accepted and wolfed down in a hurry so he could get to Arthur and not be shouted at because of being late.
As he walked down the familiar corridors he could feel the difference inside him, the once great strength that he felt he had was now gone, he felt skinny and dead, like he had no energy left, he felt tired and weak. This was weird. When he had magic he had felt strong, not weak and he had been able to go many days without feeling hunger but now that his magic was bound to the ring, he could feel that hunger ripping at his stomach, a voice inside his banging head seemed to resonate, had binding his magic really been a good idea?
Well he hadn't a clue but he could try it out at least go a little while without magic and see what would happen, what was the worst thing that could happen? The knights didn't have magic and they were still alive. But then again that was only because he protected them. He shook his head shaking his thoughts but making his headache more pronounced as he shuffled into the prince/regent kings room.
"Wakey Wakey" he shouted as he opened the curtains, he felt like he was swaying as he held onto the bed post as he watched Arthur wake up, he pointed to the mans breakfast and gave a forced smile, which Arthur seemed to sigh and just eat.
"I have chores for you today and a lot of them" smiled the prince with an evil smile as Merlin just seemed to sigh and rub his forehead.
"What's wrong Merlina?" asked Arthur as he studied his manservant with a look of humour.
"Just a headache" he replied weakly as he studied the list of chores that Arthur had made up and bit his lip trying to force the pain away but without his magic it was no use, yes having no magic was a bad idea.
"I'll start on them right away" he gave another weak smile and almost stumbled away as Arthur gave a worried glance at his manservant/friend.
