Hey, look who updated in a decent amount of time! You all must be so proud of me right? This is one of my longer chapters, so I hope you enjoy it. Also, I want to make a specific cover for this story, but I'm horrible at any kind of art, so if any of you are capable, and want to help me out, PM me!

Gwaine turned the page to the next entry, took a sip of wine that had appeared on the table, courtesy of Merlin. "Alright. Reading another man's diary."
"Just do it Gwaine." Merlin smiled.
"Fine."
Dear Diary,
Well, I'm still alive, and my plan worked... Sort of. I got the head of the snake. And Prince Prat says that I'm useless with a sword.
"Wait, you can use a sword?" Everyone looked at Merlin, who grinned.
"Not really, I just have good reflexes. I do better from a distance than up close anyway." He laughed as Arthur remembered the time he found out just how good of a shot Merlin was with a crossbow.
"Anywaaay! Back to the... diary. You know Merlin, you probably should have called it a journal, you know, less girly and all."
"Well, I didn't know that I'd ever be showing it to anyone when I started writing, now keep reading."
Gaius says that he can make an antidote with the snake venom for Sir Ewan, thank the gods. I just hope that Arthur believes me.

"Wait, do you believe in the Old Religion?"
"Arthur, the Old Religion is all around you. In the air, the trees, the castle, everywhere. You just have to feel it. It's been here long before, and will last long after the time of men. It is the source of life for all creatures of magic, such as Kilgharrah and myself. So yes. I believe in the Old Religion." Merlin had a soft smile on his face.
"Kilgharrah?" Arthur asked.
"The Great Dragon. That is his name."
"Is. Not was. Merlin, what are you not telling me?"
"The diary will get to it." Merlin shrunk in his chair, looking to Gaius for help.
"Merlin." Arthur was getting... not angry, concerned.
"The diary will get to it. Let's continue if you want to find out." Merlin snapped, and Gwaine picked the diary back up.
Well, there you go. Honestly, Valiant is probably my least favorite episode. I just don't like it. But you know, it's there, so I just have to power through it. Also! Just so you know, I'm going to start a drabbley, one shot, collection thing, just to help my muse and prevent some of the severe cases of writer's block that you all know I get. So if any of you have requests let me know. Geronimo!
