Thank you for the reviews.

You all reacted the way I thought you would. And maybe the conversation that you wanted is about to happen.

Just to warn you, this might be the last chapter I upload for a week. I have got so behind with writing and it is starting to get to me. I am trying so hard to catch up but when I plan to write every day and I basically don't have a weekend anymore, it is becoming harder to find the time to write. As well I am prioritising fanfiction writing over trying to get my coursework sorted out. So I am sorry to leave you on this chapter, but I need a week to sort myself out and hopefully get a place where I am happier.

Chapter 10

Morgana was still shaking from her dream. She jumped when Gwen placed a hand on her shoulder to hand her a drink. The images were replaying over in her mind.

"What happened?" Balinor asked.

She raised her head to see that Balinor, Hunith, Merlin and Arthur were in the room. She knew that she had to tell them but it would reveal her magic to Arthur.

"Uther had sacked Drugonia. I was walking down the halls, in my wedding dress. The corridors were silent. I looked out onto the courtyard to see it covered in bodies and blood. I think one of them was Gwen's. I ran to each of your chambers in hope to find you. When they were empty, I made my way to the chapel. I was stopped by the bodies lining the corridor to the council chamber. Balinor, you were tied to your throne, with arrows shot into you. Merlin ..." She stopped. She didn't want to tell them how she found her future husband.

"Morgana." Merlin said.

"Please Morgana. Tell us what you saw." Balinor said.

"Merlin was hanging from the ceiling. He was still alive but I would have thought that he would have been there for a while. He told me to run. As I backed out of the hall, Uther grabbed me around the waist from behind, said long live Drugonia and then slit my throat."

Merlin waited for his father to nod at him before he walked over and pulled her into his arms. He held her close as she buried her face into his chest.

Balinor sighed. "More men will be sent to the border. Uther won't be able to cross it without us knowing about it."

"Hang on, it was a bad dream. Morgana had them all the time. Gaius used to give her a sleeping draft for them." Arthur said.

"Now we know why it hid itself for so long," Balinor commented.

"What?"

Morgana looked up at Merlin and he nodded at her. She still wasn't ready to tell him, but he did have to know now.

"Arthur." She waited for him to turn to her before he finished. "I have magic and I am a seer."

Arthur stared at her and blinked a couple of times. "Sorry? What?"

"My dreams have a meaning to them. It is the reason we haven't married yet. I have been in training, to learn about my magic and learn how to control it. It is also why I can't go back to Camelot. Not while Uther is king. I wouldn't be safe there."

Morgana felt Merlin pull her closer to him as they allowed Arthur to have a chance to think over what he had just been told.

"How long will your training take?" Arthur asked.

"A couple of weeks," Balinor said.

Merlin let Morgana go slightly. "I know what you are thinking because I am thinking the same. I know we were going to wait but maybe we can't wait. We need to show Uther that Morgana belongs in the North without revealing her magic to him. We need to bring the wedding forward. It takes a couple of weeks to get to Drugonia from Camelot and Uther would have to get his men together anyway."

Arthur still looked like he was struggling with the idea of Morgana's magic. "I don't know how dreams work or anything like that but maybe I could buy us a little more time by writing to my father."

The wedding had been brought forward and the last preparations were being made before the morning. For in the morning he was going to be married to Morgana.

Merlin couldn't help but smile. This day had finally come around. He loved Morgana and wanted to spend every waking moment with her. At least this way he knew that he would be able to spend more time with her, at night, outside of his duties. Not that he was entirely happy about what would happen. Gwaine had been giving him tips about what he should do once they retire for the night and have to consummate their marriage.

"Are you nervous?"

Merlin turned to see that Arthur had joined him in watching the servants putting up the decorations.

"Why wouldn't I be? Especially after Morgana's dream. Goddess, I can't believe that I am marrying Morgana, tomorrow."

Arthur chuckled. "Nor can I."

"I know that you now know Morgana's reasons as to why she can't return to Camelot but she also asked me to promise that she wouldn't have to go back to Camelot, not while Uther is king. I fear that I won't be able to keep it."

"Once you are married, Morgana is technically your property. My father can curse any god but that is what she is in law. She would have no place in Camelot. Her place would be in Drugonia."

Merlin winced at the use of the word property.

"I don't like the term either," Arthur said when he noticed. "Especially with Morgana's name in the same sentence. You are more likely her property."

"I would happily be her property."

Arthur sighed. "Once the wedding is over, I will return to Camelot as soon as I can and tell my father that I didn't get there in time to stop the wedding. I will tell him that there is nothing more that we can do and that Morgana is now your wife and she willingly left Camelot to go to Drugonia with you. If I can stop my father going to war, I will. However, if it does go to war, I will fight for Camelot."

"As I will fight for Drugonia. We are the Princes of two great kingdoms. I don't want to fight you, Arthur."

"And I don't want to fight you, Merlin."

"You may be a better man but I doubt that Uther will be stopped, even if it is you who tells him that nothing more can be done. We are heading to war Arthur. And I believe there is very little that we could do to stop it."
