Merlin was trying to find something nice to wear for the feast.
"Which dress should I wear?" Morgana asked. Merlin looked over and saw Morgana had a light blue dress and a green and red dress.
"The green and red. It's fancier." Merlin answered. Morgana got ready. Merlin groaned as he tried to find his shirt.
"What's wrong?"
"I can't find my shirt."
"Have you look on your bed?"
Merlin looked on his bed and found it. He saw that he had made a mess.
"I found it on the bed. Now, I have to clean the room." Merlin sighed.
"We're going to be late. You can clean the room later." Morgana replied.
"Fine."
Merlin got ready. When he was ready, he waited for Morgana.
"Merlin, can you help me with this fastening?" Morgana wondered. Merlin went over and helped Morgana.
"You look beautiful." Merlin whispered as he kissed Morgana.
"We should get going."
SO, they went to the feast. When they got there, Arthur and Gwen were waiting for them. They greeted each other.
"You looked beautiful tonight." Arthur said.
"Thank you." Morgana replied.
"The two of you can sit next to us at the head of the table."
"Are you sure?" Merlin asked.
"Very. Now, go sit down." Gwen answered. Merlin and Morgana sat down next to Arthur and Gwen. When everyone saw Morgana, they gasped and glared at her. Morgana looked down at her hands. Merlin grabbed her hand and squeezed.
"It'll be ok." Merlin whispered.
"I think I should leave." Morgana answered.
"Then I'll go with you."
"No, you should enjoy yourself."
"But I won't be able to enjoy myself without you."
"What's wrong?" Arthur wondered.
"I want to leave but I want Merlin to stay and enjoy himself." Morgana answered.
"Both of you should stay. They'll see sense."
Arthur stood up.
"Lords, ladies, and knights. As you can see, we have a sorceress in this room. Morgana has come asking for forgiveness. She has taken the job as Guinevere's servant. As we all know, rumors have been spread that the Sarrum of Amata had tortured her. Those rumors are true. We all know that the Sarrum's torture is far more than anyone ever deserves. I say that we all give Morgana a second chance." Arthur explained. No one answered. "Let the feast begin."
So, the feast began. They all ate.
Merlin and Morgana talked to Arthur and Gwen. When they finished eating, they talked to some of the knights and the people who forgave Morgana. Then they were approached by a lord.
"I see that you have corrupted the king." He said.
"No, I haven't." Morgana answered.
"Don't lie to me or else you will pay the price."
"Leave her alone." Merlin warned. The lord pushed Merlin away and grabbed Morgana.
"I will put an end to this." The lord hissed. He was about to leave the room with Morgana but was stopped by Percival and Gwaine.
"Where do you think you're going with Merlin's girl?" Gwaine asked.
"To get rid of her."
"Then you'll have to get rid of me first."
Merlin went over and took Morgana away from the three.
"Everything will be alright, Morgana." Merlin whispered. They went over to Arthur and Gwen.
"I think I'm going to go home." Morgana mumbled.
"I'm going with her."
"Are you sure?" Gwen asked.
"Yes." Morgana replied.
"We'll see you tomorrow."
Merlin and Morgana went home. When they were in their chambers, Merlin cleaned the room while Morgana got ready for bed. She laid down on herbed and cried. Merlin heard her and went over. He opened the curtain and sat down on the bed.
"I'm sorry, Morgana." Merlin whispered. Merlin pulled Morgana close and hugged her.
"I know I asked to be treated that way, but I didn't realize that it would be this bad." Morgana cried.
"Soon, they'll forgive you."
Merlin kissed Morgana. She kissed back and allowed him to help her lie down. Merlin laid down next to her and the two fell asleep. When they woke up, it was morning. Merlin kissed Morgana's nose and smiled at her.
"Today will be a good day." Merlin promised.
"I hope so." Morgana answered. They got up and got dressed. They went downstairs and saw that everyone was waiting.
"Look who's awake." Arthur teased.
"Says the one who wakes up at noon." Merlin replied. "I have to be up at the crack of dawn."
They opened their presents. Morgana was opening the one from Merlin. She saw the dress and gasped.
"It's beautiful." Morgana gasped.
"There's more." Merlin replied. Morgana looked and show the shawl. She wrapped it around herself and smiled.
"I love it."
"There's still more."
Morgana saw the jewelry and saw a small box. Merlin kneeled in front of her and took the box. He opened it.
"Will you marry me?" Merlin asked.
"Yes." Morgana exclaimed. Merlin put the ring on her finger and they kissed. Everyone congratulated the two. A week later, the two got married. Within that next year, Morgana was given more and more freedom by the people. A few months after Merlin and Morgana had gotten married, Morgana found out that she was pregnant. Several months later, she gave birth to their son Luke. Arthur was able to repeal the ban on magic but didn't tell Merlin or Morgana till Christmas day. They all met in Gaius' chambers. Arthur handed Merlin and Morgana a present.
"This is very important, and I need an answer as soon as possible." Arthur said. Merlin opened it and saw the documents. Merlin and Morgana read them. "Now, that magic is legal again, I need a court sorcerer or sorceress."
"I'll do it, but the people won't listen to me." Morgana replied.
"But Merlin doesn't have magic."
"Yeah, about that." Merlin sighed as he made a flame appear in his hand.
"How long?" Arthur questioned.
"Since birth. I only used it for you, Arthur."
"I know or else the two of you would have conquered Camelot."
"I'm sorry."
"We'll talk about it later. Will the two of you be my court sorcerers?"
"Yes." Merlin and Morgana replied. So, everyone was finally happy. Magic was free and the birth of Albion was complete.
