Merlin's wedding


It was balmy evening. The sun was low but the midsummer's nights were long. Arthur listened how the birds sing. And how they sing! It was so bright and glorious. And it sounded like they were singing in perfect harmony. Arthur watched his friend. The war was over and it was finally the time of love and happiness. And it was Merlin if someone who deserved it all.

Merlin was standing near the lake's shoreline and waited, looking into the water. And there was something in the water. Someone rose from the lake, walking toward Merlin who was now smiling wildly. Young woman with dark long hair, her eyes locked at Merlin. The dress was white and made of bright pretty things. Arthur wasn't sure what the fabric really was. The crown was made some yellow flowers and they shine like a halo made of summer. Waves were able to beach her, and Merlin stretched out his hand.

Merlin wasn't told anything who his betrothed was and now Arthur's heart skipped when he saw the bride of Merlin. He was identified the woman. She was the same who he was killed those long years ago. He couldn't believe it!

The whole wedding ceremony was like a dream, a beautiful and fragile dream. It seemed to Arthur that if he had breathed properly, he would have woken up.

Arthur watched Merlin who seemed to be crazy of love. His eyes never leaved his bride's face. Not even when the old region's high priestess gave Merlin the goblet and he drank. When Merlin said his vow, he spoke the old language what Arthur didn't understand, but he felt the warmness and love and knew that there was magic around them. Then Merlin offered the goblet to his bride who drank too.

And when Freya said her vow, it was like singing. Gwen shook Arthur's hand firmly, and he glanced at his wife. There were tears in her eyes, but her face was shining with joy.

Merlin's and Freya's kiss was quick and shy and both blushed when the guests burst to the laud hurrahs and applauses. And then Merlin suddenly wrapped his arms around Freya and kissed passionately his wife. Arthur burst laughing.
