Chapter 3:

Merlin had been running for a little over a week now. Everyone was searching for him, in all the kingdoms. What had he done? By killing Morgana, he had ruined his life. His destiny altered, never to serve Arthur again.

Merlin acknowledged his fate without a fight. He knew would always be running, always be moving. He would never stop until the day he was too unrecognizable by all. The day he became Emrys.

Uther was distraught. His life slowly withered away after a few years, and one day, he decided to stop breathing. He was found hanging in his room by Gwen.

Gwen, too, was upset. But she found peace and solace in Arthur after Uther's demise and married him. They had a young son, and then a young daughter, one to inherit the throne some day.

Gaius lived to a ripe old age, and passed away in his sleep. He still stayed as court physician, even though he was punished by withholding the information about Morgana's death. He died shortly after Guinevere and Arthur's daughter was born.

Arthur permitted magic in Camelot a few years after Gaius's passing, and Merlin returned after a while. He was disguised as Emrys, and only Guinevere knew that it was him. After a year he left, too saddened by Arthur's constant talk of Merlin and when he would find and execute him. He later passed when Arthur's son inherited the throne.

Some may say that it is Morgana's fault that these sad events occurred. Some may say that it is Merlin's. They all know that they had something to do with it. But nobody really knows of what happened to Morgause, who truly started it all.
