Summary: No one was allowed to bury those with magic nor mark their graves. Merlin did anyway.
Camelot Drabble Prompt 525: Grave
As Merlin built another cairn, another sorcerer's silent tomb, he thought about the laws of Camelot. Those of magic were not allowed a final resting place. No tombstone, no marker, no acknowledgement of who and what they were could sully the landscape.
Uther wanted to wipe their existence from the face of the earth.
Merlin knew better. It didn't matter where they were buried. A thousand thousand sepulchres were already beneath his feet, the whole world an unmarked grave. But those who had come before, and those would come again would always be remembered. Merlin would make sure of it.
