A/N: *Mouth is hanging open* 31 reviews? THIRTY-ONE REVIEWS FOR ONE DRABBLE? Do you realize that's the same amount as a popular oneshot for me, or a great chapter in a popular angsty story? I LOVE YOU ALL! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? YOU DESERVE COOKIES! (Or biscuits, PPitP. Whichever.)
Now that I'm finished spazzing and thanking you all, I would like to thank some unsigned reviewers. I can't reply to you all, but I appreciate your reviews all the same. This chapter: Julie Winchester (wasn't signed in), cherrytree, gem, Starts with a D, and asdf. Most of those names are familiar to me, either because they've reviewed before or I've seen them review other people's stories. I thank you all.
Sorry it's late. FF dot net was spazzing. Again.
35. Understand (Part Two)
Arthur stood before Merlin's cell door, talking, but Merlin wasn't quite sure he understood what the prince was saying or doing. Maybe he was in shock, but it looked like Arthur was turning the key—opening the door.
"Remember, Merlin, the old woman planted the magic book and framed you. She did this because you caught onto her plan to destroy Camelot. Unfortunately, she got away. We'll keep searching. The rest was a trick of the light."
"Wait…huh? Who?"
Arthur glared. "That's what I told my father, Merlin. And I wouldn't lie to him."
The warden waved bye-bye to Merlin.
