Morgana was in an awful state, Hunith tried to comfort her and eventually after making a chamomile tea Morgana gradually settled "Hunith do you believe that dreams can predict the future?"
"Yes I do my child there are those who do have such gifts, why do you ask?" Hunith asked gently.
"Several times in the past after my nightmares what I dreamed about has come true." Morgana admitted "Do I have magic? If I do Uther will kill me!"
"He need never find out my lady. Was this nightmare like that?" Hunith asked as she continued to hug Morgana
"I saw Arthur he was dying, a sorcerer attacked him during a feast, no one could stop him….it won't happen it can't" Morgana started to get worked up once more.
"Child such dreams are a warning they may not come to pass, sometimes by trying to change things you can cause them to occur. If you do have the site you need help to manage it" Hunith said "Do not fear it, if you are so blessed the gods favour you"
Morgana looked at Hunith with fear "You mean I have ….magic"
"If you are a seer you may not have magic, not all seers do, but it is a gift and should be nurtured, but child you are right you must not let your guardian know, for he fears anything he doesn't understand, we can hide it from him do not fear you will be safe."
"I have worried for so long, I have feared what it was, thank you…thank you for believing in me and not being frightened"
"My lady I bore a son who had magic from the first months of life why should I fear you. I fear for anyone who does have the gift, in these times, but my husband had it and he was a good man, my son is an innocent who wouldn't willingly hurt anything. Magic is not evil. Look on it like a sword. A sword is not evil it depends on the user, the same is for magic" Hunith smiled at Morgana "if your gift is as a seer there is no reason for anyone to know. Now sleep my lady I will sit beside you"
Arthur also couldn't sleep that night, what he had been told was going round and round in his brain. The trouble was he believed every word, which made him wonder about his father and what he should do. He had been stunned to learn that there was a dragon under the castle, for years his father had told everyone that there were no dragons why had he lied? Why had he kept such a magnificent creature as a captive if not only so he could use it at a later stage? Surely like using the sorcerer's for his own ends it was hypocritical of him. How could he burn so many yet use them himself. Arthur wished he were older and more experienced. He knew one thing he wanted to get to know Merlin and Hunith, but he would need to be very careful not to make his father suspicious.
In the end Arthur decided to wait and do as the dragon had advised and wait for an opportunity, although he did speak to his sister and warn her to take care. "I will act, but not until I am sure what I do won't make matters worse. Please take care for both your and your maid servant's sake."
Morgana agreed to wait, she herself was unsure whether to tell Arthur about her dreams, she wanted to and was sure she could trust him but she was scared. But what worried her far more was her last dream and what she had seen. Should she warn Arthur he was in danger or just try to do something herself.
