I am Morgane le Fey

Chapter 4

I didn't think much of what Viviane had said, or what they were discussing, I just wanted to go to sleep. But when I was in my bed, I couldn't sleep, so I just thought. What could it all have meant? What about my vision? Viviane had said that I had something called 'the sight', was I special? There were lots of things I didn't know. After a lot of tossing and turning, I finally fell asleep.

The next morning Viviane told us that we were all going to go see the King. I was ecstatic, I hadn't been out of the house for a long time. So Nurse helped Anna and I dress up in our best dresses and ribbons, for we were to attend a great banquet.

Mother and Auntie Morgause dressed in gowns of the latest fashions, Mother in red and Morgause in green. Viviane's dress was the grandest of them all, made of something I had never seen before, and not at all like the dresses court women wore. It was silvery blue, and it was tight around her torso, then it billowed out below her stomach in a bell form, and strangely, it had no sleeves. The dress stopped over her breasts, displaying her snow- white arms and neck. Around her neck she had a simple chain of silver, from which hung a large, navy blue stone that seemed to move as she did. I wanted to be so much like her. She was exactly who I wanted to be, majestic, strong, and mysterious.

It took a long time to reach the palace, Anna kept pinching me to keep me awake so that I wouldn't wrinkle my dress. We finally reached it, and we went into the hall. Never had I seen more people in my entire life! It was unbelievable, the entire hall, about the size of six rooms was entirely full with well-dressed important people.

After we ate, Anna and I were sent outside to play. I knew that they were going to talk about something important, and I had no intention of not hearing about it. Anna, of course, went and sat down and began to play with a ball. I stuck back into the hall, no one noticed me for I was so tiny. I could slip in and out of them very easily. Then I saw mother coming, and I screeched and dove under a table. Fortunately for me, it was the same table mother, Auntie, Father, Viviane, the King and some other strange men went to sit down at. I grinned, I could listen all I wanted!

They began to talk about boring things, such as money and the government. Then I heard something more fascinating.

"I have now decided who is to be future king," the king said, "I am not going to be here much longer, and I have made my choice. Geneth, you are not to be king as previously planned." Mother let out a gasp, and father shook with anger. "Uther Pendragon shall be the new King."

I froze. Pendragon...Pendragon...hum, where have I heard that name? I let it pass, and I listened some more. They continued to talk about politics and such, and I soon fell asleep. I awoke instants later, and climbed out from under the table. I was perplexed by the expression on my mother's face. She had the expression of complete adoration, sublime love, and peace. I wondered what she was staring at. I followed her gaze to a tall, broad, fairly handsome man. There was something about him that was familiar...He bent down to pick up a napkin on the stone floor.

He had the markings of a great red dragon on his arm.

* * * Hey! I know, I know, it was kinda short, but I wanted to try doing a bit of a cliff-hanger...I'm not sure if it worked or not... haha, you tell me!
