Chapter 10- Morgana's Fury
Arthur and his knights were released from the spell holding them to the wall. The man screamed in agony as he was burned alive. It was a horrifying sight, the maids and servants covered their ears and cried but the sorcerers stared at him without mercy.
"Stop it!" Arthur bellowed. He had seen people burn. He knew the smell of melting flesh he knew the screams. But most passed out from the smoke or pain long before the flames consumed them completely.
The flames stopped, and all that was left of the man was a charred corpse.
"Arthur Pendragon," said Merlin. But Arthur knew that it wasn't really Merlin. "He was the source of the enchantment. He had to die."
"You couldn't have come up with a better way than that?" asked Arthur.
They didn't answer him.
"We are fading," said Merlin. "Soon, we will take our rightful place in our master's heads. And they will command us once more. Merlin has an important part to play in what is to come. Do not try to go against destiny, Arthur. You will not win if you do."

Morgana felt the spell die. She knew that the collecting had been unsuccessful and she was furious. She screamed and her magic was released, killing the nearest guard.
It didn't matter. She had her army. She had thousands and Arthur had mere hundreds. He would know her wrath soon enough. And all those that had stayed behind would know it too.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
This is my gift to my readers for Christmas! Please review and tell me whether or not you liked it! The sequel will be up really soon. It's called The War for Camelot. Look out for it. And for those who hate how short my chapters are, I'll be trying to keep to a word count of at least 1000 words per chapter. So it should mean a lot longer chapters.
