I met with Aithusa in our little clearing. She greets me with a bad attempt at imitating Kilgarrah, "Hello young Warlock. What seems to be troubling you?" I laugh, "I'm not exactly what you would call young anymore. And I hate to tell you this, but your Kilgarrah imitation has only gotten worse over the years."

"Well then. It's not like I have any recent memories to base the imitation off of."

"That may be true, though it was not necessarily that great in the first place. All it ever did was annoy the crap out of him. I must say, you were even better at that than I was, and that is saying something."

Aithusa laughs, "Well thank you, I am not sure whether or not it was a compliment or not, but either way, I'm taking it as one. At the same point, I know you would not have summoned me, if it were not important."

I tell her of recent events. She said, "Follow your instincts, and destiny will fall into place," before flying off. There are times where she is as helpful as Kilgarrah had always been. And by helpful, I simply mean confusing.


A week or so later, I had gone out riding with Gwen and Arthur. It seemed just like old times, except, not quite. We conversed about old times, and I continued telling them all the times I had saved Arthur's life. Well all of the really important times. I'm not sure I quite remember all of the times I had saved his life. There were way too many to count. We made it to the clearing where I had conversed with Aithusa earlier in the week, unbeknownst to them. We decided to stop and let the horses rest, and I went off to bring them to a near by stream. As I was on my way back, I noticed that Gwen and Arthur were in a really deep conversation.

"...I love you Arthur, I always have and I always will. I continued loving you even when you were gone."

"I love you as well. I still feel the need to apologize. You had to live all those years without me, just to hear from Merlin that I would be coming back. I'm glad you didn't wait for me, though you shouldn't have had to rule alone."

"I was never truly alone Arthur, I had Merlin, and Leon, and Percival. They all helped me out a great deal. Especially Merlin. People had very strong reactions to Merlin. They either wanted him as Court Sorcerer or burned at the stake. But anyways, I always knew deep in my heart that you would come back for me. I just hope that this time our story won't end so tragically.

"It didn't end tragically last time. Last time wasn't the end, thus it did not end tragically. We will get a happy ending this time, I promise you that Guinevere."

When the started kissing fairly passionately I felt it was time for them to know. I cleared my throat, laughing as they both jumped sky high.
"I brought the horses back. I figured it would be a good idea to get back before dark. I didn't interrupt anything, did I?"

They both hurriedly shook their heads no. We headed back to my stables, talking and laughing about old times.


Hey everyone:) I'm glad to see that people are still enjoying this. I have midterms next week, so either there will be a new chapter everyday, while I'm trying to procrastinate or there won't be any until the week is up. Thinking about my grades, I really hope it's the latter. I had some really fun ideas with what Merlin did in his 1500 year break, I guess you could say. As such, I'm going to start a series of one-shots about it. If anyone is interested, please check it out, it's called 1500 Years :)
