For a while, they all just stood there, staring at the dead bodies on the ground, but then, all of their visions faded out to black. When their eyes opened again, they found themselves in a brightly-lit meadow covered in the most beautiful flowers they had ever seen. Merlin quickly found himself in his mother's arms.

"M-Mum? What happened?" Merlin questioned, confused.

"You did it honey. Morgause won't be able to hurt anyone anymore," Hunith answered gently.

"Where are we?" Merlin asked.

"This is Avalon, Merlin. We've been here before. Now that your mission has been completed, we came back," Hunith answered carefully.

"So, we're all dead again, then?" asked Merlin shakily.

Hunith hugged her son tighter.

"It's okay, Merlin. Everything is okay now," she comforted. "Everything is okay…"

Once Merlin had had enough time to think and accept the situation, he knew what he had to do. He went searching through the beautiful landscape until he found the blonde man he had been looking for.

"Arthur," Merlin called out.

The man turned toward him, his face still showing that he was worried about what had transpired between them. Merlin smiled sadly.

"Thank you."

I hope you guys like how it ended.
