Last Chapter


Kilgarrah flapped his wings in fear at the sight of Merlin vanishing into thin air and craned his neck over to Enygues's home.

His pupil could fit inside the frame of the window and he squinted to find Enygues as his fiery breath caused her flowers to crumble in the heat.

"Enygues!" the dragon whispered in his booming voice, trying to speak low enough so no one could hear him. His amber eyes flickered left and right as he tried to scope out the home through the window opening. "Enygues I know you are in there.."

"What is it my dear dragon…" Enygues called out weakly, not showing herself.

"Where has Merlin gone Enygues? And why have you shown him the spell?.."

"Because it is his time to know; I do not know where he has gone, but we both know who would know."

"I don't know who you are speaking of." The Dragon replied coldly as his pupil became smaller.

"Of course you do. Hellaine, the Seeker would know, would she not? Have you thought of asking her?" Enygues said with every ounce of energy she had. "Oh wait, now I remember…" Enygues said as the Dragons eyelid few lower giving her an icy glare. " You won't. It is because you caused her people to perish under her eyes because of your warnings to Uther."

"I did what needed to be done for the sake of Albion. I had to warn Uther to let Gorlois die otherwise Arthur would never be! It is hardly my fault what came out of it."

"Tell that to Hellaine." scoffed Enygues.

"I know what you have done with regards to the Excalibur.." The Dragon said instead. "You did the wrong thing by showing Prince Arthur that sword this early in his youth. You have messed with fate! Now it is in the wrong hands!"

"Oh forgive me!" Enygues said dramatically with a wavering voice. "I am old and senile. I thought it was time. Now I know I should have waited…for today."

"T-Today?"

"Yes. The day I die is the day I must tell Arthur about the Excalibur. I believed the last time Arthur had come I was to die then. That is the only reason I told him about the whereabouts of the Excalibur! I feel it is today, however. It is fine Kilgarrah, I lived a long life and I've been staring at beet roots and rat tails these past few weeks. It's really not a sad thing to leave this strange and terribly dull hobby. Now I know of my mistake."

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*

Kilgarrah showed little compassion and ignored the knocking.

"Mordred has it, Enygues! The extent of your mistake is unthinkable!"Kilgarrah growled waiting for Enygues to hand over a solution.

Enygues didn't say anything but looked down in worry.

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*

"Perhaps we do not know all that is meant to be, Kilgarrah. Now, if you will, please let me live my last moments in silence."

*KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK*

"ENYGUES!" yelled a familiar voice belonging to a man. Suddenly the door burst open causing Enygues to turn to Kilgarrah.

"Oh dear, you better leave…" Enygues said to the dragon even more weakly.

Kilgarrah, unable to think, took the direction, flapped his wings and looked at the house.

"Good bye Enygues. It is a shame this subject occupied our last conversation."

And with that, Kilgarrah dove to the sky and flew away as the man who burst in dashed into the room.

"Where is he?" It was Arthur, looking eagerly around in search for another soul than Enygues. "Where is he! That voice! I know it! It's that man! It's that man that caused my mother and the great purge to occur!" Arthur yelled as ran to the window and eyed the skies, witnessing a dragon fly away in the moonlight "Was he on that dragon?"

"Something like that…." Enygues replied with some struggle as she lay on the floor with decreasing energy.

"Enygues!" Arthur he dashed over to a body fallen on the floor. Arthur held Enygues's head and shoulders up and inspected her well being. "Enygues! What's happened! What's happened to you!"

"I am dying.." Enygues coughed, trying to respond with struggle.

"Enygues… no… I will take you back to Camelot." Arthur said nervously, patting Enygues's face to keep her eyes from closing. "Please…you cannot die! I have questions! I need your help!"

Enygues swallowed and closed her eyes as she struggled to say something.

"Listen to me…Arthur. I will tell you advice that will help you forever." Enygues said, clutching Arthurs tunic.

Arthur desperately came closer, feeling more uneasy than ever.

"There will come a time … "Enygues said, coughing. "There will come a time when friends become traitors, and traitors will become friends. All you need to remember is to trust Emrys when you learn of him."

"Emrys…?" Arthur called out tensely, as he patted her face. "Enygues.. .please… don't!"

As Arthur kept patting her face and lifting her head up, Enygues fell limp and her head dropped low in Arthurs trembling arms.

A breeze blew in the window where only one soul remained in the room.
