Chapter Two – Royal Guest

"The day Camelot's blood is taken to the magical Side

The Sorceress will be Free and that will be the Time

For the Royal blood of the Isles to have

Camelot's blood spilt in the name of the Craft."

Morgana's eyes opened with a snap that had her gasping, her eyes scanned her familiar bedroom and glimpsed at the flags waving outside her window. She took a huge breath and rubbed the sleep from her eyes tiredly, she hated these dreams, these nightmares, a burden every female Le Fay carried ever since the dawn of time. But for the past months, her nightmares had been reduced, however ever since the death of her mother, they had returned at full force to haunt her down.

She pushed the button by her nightstand to alert the servants and stood up to go to the bathroom of her suite, her clothes for the day were already chosen and set for her, she glanced at the black she had refused to stop wearing yet and sighed, the death of her mother signaled huge changes in her life, changes that had been only speculations a couple of weeks ago, now she was called to answer the call of duty and to do so right.

She turned on the warm water, stripped from her nightgown and moved inside, she felt the hot water running down her body and she closed her eyes, imagining the water taking away all her pain and fears , she wished it was that easy.

In the past days, following her mother's death, Morgause had taken full action on her plans. The official proposal to Camelot had been sent mare hours after the burning ritual, and an answer was being awaited, because of the boycott they could not know Camelot's decision as there was no ambassador but Camelot would answer soon with the decision taken.

Morgana took a shaky breath at the thought of the next levels of the plan, go to Camelot, spy upon the male heir, Arthur, take him to her side, reveal the truth about his true nature of his birth, then let the son kill the father… and then, come back and marry Merrick of Mercia… that was probably the hardest part, she was only twenty four and he was fifty nine…

He had no son after four failed marriages with his wives either divorcing him and fleeing the country or dying; and she would be his wife… the mare thought of that old man with the wrinkled face and hands being above her in her first night with a man on a bed made her feel sick. She shivered at the thought and pushed it away, that was far away in the future, if she was lucky, he could die until she's done with Camelot…

'What do you think, father?' Arthur Pendragon asked and his father, Uther looked at the right of the table, where the male heir was, waiting, the meeting had ended a few minutes ago and ever since that moment, Uther Pendragon had been silent.

'I think the Le Fays think they're smarter than anyone else…' Uther said and Arthur smirked and nodded.

'Whatever they're hatching, these two birds… we can fight it because we're united.' Arthur said and this time Uther smiled and clapped his son on the shoulder, a rare gesture for a man like him.

'That's true, Arthur, but I have to warn you, if little Morgana has just a bit of her mother's brain, she can be trouble for everyone… and let alone her looks… Vivienne Le Fay did justice to both her daughters and especially that little one.' Uther said and Arthur smirked once again, he knew how the Le Fays looked, he had seen them in various times in the news about the visits to Mora, the occasional festivals between the Isles, Escetia and the North, where the two Princesses were always keeping the rest of the kings' attention, it would not happen in Camelot however, indeed, Morgana Le Fay was an absolute beauty but some looks and a couple of spells wouldn't work on him, he knew better than trusting witches.

'No worries father, I can bed her, fuck her but she won't play with my head…' Arthur said and Uther smirked and raised his glass of wine for his son.

'Now you can go, our royal guest will be arriving soon and I want you to be good with her, having a close eye on a witch requires manners, sweet talk and all that crap, and as far as I know these witches love that so do it, play her game but remember, you're a Pendragon, women do not rule these lands…' Uther said strictly and Arthur nodded his head and stood up, the talk was over and he was surprised it lasted even that long and included light moments of manly humor.

He exited the chamber of meetings and bumped on his best friend who was too careless to look before his nose for other human beings.

'Merlin! Don't you ever look before you?' Arthur asked as Merlin moved a step back and smiled at his friend, Merlin Emrys was the Godson of Gaius, Arthur's personal tutor in earlier years and current counselor of the crown, the two boys had grown up together and Arthur was always like a big brother as Merlin was five years younger, not a fighter, not a soldier but a great man who would be a good counselor and lawyer for the court or even an ambassador for Camelot in one of the rest of the Kingdoms. 'Now that the boycott is over, if you keep up being useless I could arrange for you to be the first ambassador for Avalon in twenty years… I'm sure all these wizards and witches would love to play with you…' Arthur said and Merlin kept the grin on, yet he kept looking behind him as if someone was chasing him.

'That would be cruel, royal brat, especially now that the most beautiful of Avalon is about to arrive…' Merlin said and Arthur frowned at his friend as they started walking down the corridor of the castle.

'How do you know this? The invitation has just been sent and the announcement to the press will be made in about an hour…' Arthur said and Merlin grinned.

'Sir Leon's long face was enough answer the moment I saw him moving down the corridor,' Merlin said as he glanced behind him again and this time Arthur gripped his friend's head in a lock, causing him to shout in pain as servants passed by and laughed, these boys never grew older than ten.

'Why you keep looking behind? Who's after you this time?' Arthur asked and he too glanced behind them.

'Leave-me! It'-s Fre-ya! Ar-thur stop!' Merlin gasped and fought to be freed from the strong lock and Arthur finally grinned and let him go.

'What did you do this time?' Arthur asked and Merlin shrugged and shook his head.

'She thinks again I'm unfaithful,' Merlin said and Arthur punched his friend's arm a bit too rough this time, causing him to rub the spot in pain.

'She has a right to think that?' Arthur asked and Merlin shook his head frantically.

'It was Gwen who kissed me, it's all a misunderstanding, but I'll make it better before the beast in Freya wakes up for good…' Merlin said and Arthur grinned and shook his head.

'I admire you for making it in a relationship, sometimes I pity my poor future wife for what she'll be through with me… I fuck and go but a relationship?.. That will be interesting.' Arthur said and Merlin laughed.

'It's just that you haven't found the right girl yet, Arthur, these maids and noble chicks and visitors from the North are cute but they were all brainless…' Merlin said and Arthur smiled. 'As for your wife… well if she's lucky, you'll give her a few children to love because I can't imagine a woman loving the royal bratness of yours, but on the other hand, how are you gonna fit on a bed the three of you? you, your ego and that poor lady? I can always serve her needs, no worries my friend…' Merlin said and remained on his spot for a moment more, before he could start running, chased by Arthur who vowed he would be sending the corpse to his parents soon.

The royal limousine finally moved out of the full of people gates of Castle Le Fay to reach Avalon's airport, inside the car, Morgana and Morgause were silently sat to have the last minutes of being in each other's company, they wouldn't be seeing each other for months if everything went according to plan.

'You know how to return in case of emergency,' Morgause spoke, Morgana nodded solemnly.

'I do,' she only said and felt her older sister taking her hand in hers, she looked at the soft eyes their grandmother had.

'Take this,' Morgause said and took out of her coat's pocket a bracelet, 'Uther will even cage you if he finds out you use magic, the small treaty we achieved allows you only to worship the Deities in our Esbats and Sabbaths as the Human Rights allow… but nothing more, I will need to be in contact with you without having us watched, and this is how we'll do it. I don't have time to explain how it works, but you'll see with your own eyes.' Morgause said and Morgana frowned down at the bracelet, sighed and wore it, not sure how she felt about it, was it just the feeling of a dog wearing a collar or something darker? She didn't have time to consider about it now.

'With you, you have our new ambassador in Camelot, Alvar, he will take the greatest care of you, I don't want you to be afraid, sister,' Morgause said and Morgana finally smiled, no matter what, Morgause had been Morgana's best friend and closest person.

'I will be alright, you make sure to work things out with Cenred and have the wedding soon, I will be back for it,' Morgana finally said and Morgause smiled, Morgana thought this would be a good chance to add what she wanted. 'I don't want to marry king Merrick,' she blurted out and hated herself for having her voice breaking, Morgause gave her a stern look, the Queen was back.

'You will do what is expected of you… we have duties and limited liberties because of our sex, when we're queens of the four kingdoms, ours and our husbands' we'll set our own rules, until then, we stick to the plan, Ana… you will marry Merrick and do your best to get pregnant the soonest… You're a princess and I'm a queen, but the moment you will be married, you're taking the crown of Mora and you have duties to the throne of our father's, like I do with our mother's… is that understood?' Morgause preached and Morgana shook her head as new tears filled her eyes, it had been two days ever since the invitation from Camelot had arrived and the whole deal had been too real for her, days were flying by and soon she would be returning for Morgause's wedding and then for her own with a man of her father's age.

'Understood,' Morgana finally said and Morgause nodded and took away the tears from her sister's eyes, almost roughly. Morgana took a deep breath as the guard's motorbikes moved by the car and entered the gate of the airport and moved straight to the royal family's jet from the private path of the Beltane Airport.

The queen and princess moved out of the car and hugged with the background noise from the people at the far end of the fence keeping the platform clear, both Le Fays were loved by the people of the isles, every girl born and blessed by the priestesses had also one of the Le Fays' name as second or even first, old prophesies that now had turned to fairy tales were talking about the Le Fays' immortality and perfection…

'I will miss you terribly, mummy would be so proud of you,' Morgause whispered in Morgana's ear only for her to hear and Morgana shut her eyes and hugged her sister tighter than ever.

'Please take care, I won't make it if something happens to you too,' Morgana whispered back, the seemingly strong and powerful women of Avalon allowed themselves to break only before each other.

The two sisters broke the hug and smiled at each other, Morgana took another breath, her last one in Avalon and moved up the few steps to the jet's door, her eyes turned amber for a moment and a firework erupted above the people in the distance, turning into a proud eagle, Mora's and therefore her symbol of power, causing the people to cheer and scream their best wishes for her. She smiled a last time at her sister who finally bowed formally, as if saying goodbye to a royal of some other Kingdom and then Morgana moved inside the plane.

She sat on her usual spot and waited for the plane to move in the air, she thanked the servant who brought her water and asked if she wanted something, Morgana shook her head, her eyes glued on the view of the Isle she was leaving behind. She could see the beautiful buildings from afar, of the capital Avalon, the Esbats Library, the Sabbaths Stadium, the altars of the city, where people gather with flowers in their hair and dance in the name of the God and the Goddess… all those beloved places she knew ever since she was a child, and now she was going to that heavy place where magic was not allowed, where women had less rights than the men and where the traitor of her father ruled…

Dearest Goddess of the Moon, help me!

'Do not worry, my dear lady, everything will be under control,' Alvar's deep voice was heard and Morgana snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him. Alvar was a man of mystery, a warlock of forty five years, he was in the royal army of Mora when her father died and moved up into power quickly, proving himself brave and proud defender of the crown of Gorlois during the great Purge, Uther had unleashed, he was one of the finest and Morgause had chosen him to be with Morgana in the new hostile environment, yet Morgana always shivered when his piercing eyes looked at her.

'The one who is not worried is a fool with no care,' Morgana said the words she had been hearing for years, Alvar smiled.

'True words from a true future queen, but just keep in mind, the one always worried is the one who ends up in the hospital with a heart attack and a bag of pills to accompany him…' Alvar said and Morgana finally chuckled and nodded, maybe Alvar wasn't that creepy after all.

The plane landed almost an hour and a half later in the Igraine Airport of Camelot city, an interesting, strict place with high buildings and Christian churches that could be seen from afar, Morgana sighed, not even one altar of course… and not a lot of green either, she could see the Arthur Park and the large Grail Avenue that ended up in Camelot castle, but apart those places, the rest of the city seemed like a maze of concrete and glass in strict rhythms, Avalon and Mora were less strict, capitals of nations of course but the buildings had the air of the people of the sea who worshiped more than one God and recognized the female.

With all formality she was received in a limousine with her guard and escort and was taken to the castle, she could see people gathered in the gates of the airport, the people of Camelot were cheering less excitedly, mostly trying to see in interest and curiosity, the press was mostly loud and blinding even from within the car, it was a historical moment as the Purge's boycott was broken and a Le Fay was in Camelot's land after two decades.

The convoy moved up the avenue that was closed for other vehicles and they were entering the gates of the castle within minutes, the building was huge, full of towers and windows, the palace in Avalon was different, there was a huge clock there, with a magical calendar around it, showing the new full moons and the eight great Sabbaths, this was different, more plain yet breathtaking.

Morgana moved out of the car by Alvar's help and was greeted by many people, one of them in particular moved forward, he looked like a nice guy, raven hair, blue eyes and two ears too big for his awful haircut, she thought with an inner smile, his whole posture however was warm and friendly, he bowed before her formally as he was dressed in a tuxedo and a couple of medals were on his chest, like hers showed who she was on her black dress, he was close to the family of Camelot.

'Your Royal Highness, Princess Morgana, my name is Merlin Emrys and I will escort you and your people to the throne chamber, where the King and Heir are waiting for you,' Merlin said and Morgana nodded her head formally and thanked him as he showed the way to the chamber, the press people from the gates of the palace were buzzing like a huge bunch of bees.

The palace inside was more strict than outside, with a prime beauty of the medieval or even pre-medieval times, there was technology of course but there were torches too, armors set around the corridors, showing the fashion Camelot went through in the past centuries.

They finally reached a double door and the guards opened it, revealing a beautiful long chamber full of noble people of Camelot and Caerleon along the ambassadors of Mercia, Escetia and the North, at the far end, Morgana could see the man sat upon the throne and the young man before it. She started moving with her head high as Alvar moved a step behind her, a small march marked her arrival from two trumpets.

With every step she took, her eyes focused more and more on the blond prince before the throne who was standing and looking at her as well. The television didn't do him justice, he was way more handsome and beautiful now that she could look at him but a strange air of cockiness and superiority already gave to her nerves, or it could be the knowledge of how he was born because of his father's cheating, Morgause was born before him, yet he was declared the heir, damn prophesies...

'Her Royal Highness, Morgana Sybille Vivienne Le Fay, princess of Avalon and Mora.' A noble man announced, usually the isles were called "the Blessed Isles" but Camelot's dislike for magic had to change these formalities, Morgana's eyes moved finally on the king who rose from the throne with the symbols of Camelot and Caerleon on and moved down the two steps separating him from the rest, in his royal costume a golden dragon was sewed on the pure red of the rest of the costume. Morgana bowed formally at the man who was to rule her along his country for the next months.

'Princess Morgana, when I had seen you last time you were a tiny child in your mother's arms, now look at you.' Uther said in greeting with a smile that didn't quiet reached his eyes, Morgana gave a similar smile.

'King Uther, it's my honor to be a guest in Camelot… the unfortunate passing of mother's made both my sister the Queen and myself to realize that we should be friends and not enemies, especially with the Saxons close by.' Morgana said and Uther nodded as he took her hand in his, his skin rough and cold, he spoke with a much lower voice.

'I hope your sister the Queen is not plotting anything…' Uther said, and his voice reached an icy level that made Morgana shiver, she answered bravely.

'Since I'm at your mercy, I hope she is not, my lord.' Uther smirked and looked at his son who approached.

'Allow me to introduce Camelot and Caerleon's Heir, Prince Arthur Henry Pendragon,' Uther said and Morgana looked at the young man again who smiled confidently and offered his hand as Uther was leaving hers, the two young people held hands tightly, both glancing at their hands but not gasping at the sharp sensation, they knew how to hide their feelings, something like electricity had passed through their skin and to each other's core.

'Princess Morgana,' Arthur said and kept the smile on, hoping what he had just felt wasn't some magical trick of hers... 'Welcome to Camelot,' he added and Morgana nodded her head, still they didn't break their handshake.

'Thank you, Prince Arthur, it's my honor to be here…' she said and Arthur smiled and finally let go of her hand while his eyes didn't move from hers, she was gorgeous, probably one of the most beautiful women he had ever laid eyes on.

The moment she had entered the chamber, he had whispered to himself "God Have Mercy…" and he had meant it, the woman was a witch and even if she hadn't enchanted him with spell-work, her captivating eyes had been enough.

The next few months were going to be really interesting with this little bird around the royal court…

OOK what u think guys? we had the prophesy as it's been givem, we had more morgause-morgana and some of the set of the kingdoms, we also had Arthur and Merlin! yaay! i know that the scene with Arthur and Uther might was abit rough to feminine spirits but consider that Arthur has been raised in Uther's castle, with Uther's character around and no woman helping the situation... so our prince is to be a bit of a jerk sometimes :P

what u think of the new characters of this chapie and Morgana and Arthur finally meeting each other?
