β Merlin, you would do well to cast aside this snow-white maiden, for I see only doom awaiting the once and future king should winter's grace lay claim to his crown and to his heart. β
πππ πππππππ πππ carved into stone, Merlin recognized with a wise solemnity far beyond his years. He was born to forge Arthur Pendragon into the great king Albion dreamt of, to stand by his side as the religions old and new were reconciled and became one. Yet his peace was not fulfilled, for he had gazed upon a looking glass and in its reflection, he saw earth fall into despair, a maiden withering in her sleeping death as the once and future king wept tears of ruby-shade, and of magic waging war to every land it touched.
He did not intend to be reunited with Lancelot in a fortress filled with bandits nor for his noble friend to implore him to lead his beautiful companion to the heart of Camelot for her safety. He needed only to look into her eyes of warm hearth to know the mirror mirage will come to pass β her destiny was intertwined with that of the promised prince's, as it was foretold a thousand years ago and would be remembered for a thousand more.
My name, the fair maidβher hair as dark as ebony, her lips red as the roseβlies, is Snow.

The Lady Athena (Merlin and Morgana's Daughter)
I hesitate. Why did I have this strange feeling? This strange aura behind the door. It wasn't like a threatening kind of feeling. But it was strange. Like if I opened this door, it would change my life forever. I hear a knock again. I shake my head from these feelings and thoughts. I then open it and look down to see a young child with a hood on. "Hello? Did you need something?" I ask. The child looks up and takes her hood off, revealing her long, black hair. The young girl looks up at me, showing her blue eyes. "Can I help you with something?" "Yes. I'm looking for my Father." Athena says. I ask, "Do you know his name?" "Yeah." she nods. I smile. She was a adorable little girl with blue eyes. I can't help but think she looked awfully familiar. "Well?" I say. "You." she says. I then feel a deep pit in my stomach. She can't be. "Pardon?" "You're my father. Merlin. Servant to the King." she says. "....no." I say softly. This can't be happening. "I'm your daughter." she smiles. My daughter. Who I didn't even know existed until now, is standing right in front of me. Will be responsible for the fall of Camelot. The beginning of Morgana's rule. And the death of Arthur. ------------------------------------ Merlin on the path to restoring magic to the Kingdom and protecting the once and future King Arthur Pendragon is now faced with a dilemma after seeing a vision of his daughter killing Arthur. Especially since she is at his door looking for him. On top of his destiny to protect Camelot and Arthur, he needs to be a Father to a daughter with magical abilities like him and seer powers like Morgana which seem to grow stronger every day. Will the vision be true? Or will he need to do something drastic to stop it from ever happening? Will she be the very thing that helps him save Camelot or the thing that destroys Camelot? Would he be able to kill her? Or protect her? Save the Kingdom? Or save his daughter?

What will Arthur do, when he finds out? Based of the series, but not completely. Featuring Merthur, Arthur 'not being a stupid prat', Good Morgana, Gwen and Lancelot and a whole lot of cuteness. Here's a snippet from one of the chapters: "I do not want your gold! I want to live without being hunted, without fear. I want magic to be alive again!" He said and Arthur grinned. He didn't even have to think about it. Anything for you, Merls. "Done." --- *Disclaimer* I can't take credit for the cover as I found it on Pinterest, I don't own Merlin either, if I did Merthur would be more than just fanfiction, all rights go to the creators.

Swords & Spells (Book One):The Magic of Emrys
Emrys has always known that it is her destiny to turn the spoiled Prince Arthur Pendragon into the greatest king Camelot has known since magic was expelled from the kingdom. But if Emrys guides Arthur to his destiny, she leads herself to her own doom. Emrys hopes to be able to change her fate, but it's hard to focus on that when she's busy trying to keep the prat of a prince from being killed by everything else. ***This is a fanfiction based on the BBC show Merlin and features MAJOR canon divergent. There are original characters in this, some taking place of canon characters and others added in as side characters. Many of our favorite characters will both look and act a little differently, as such, but this is just to help them all fit better together. This story contains a lot of original plot points, with a sprinkling of beats from some favorite episodes, but I hope you'll give it a chance and still enjoy it!***Complete
It's not Betrayal
"Merlin has-" The ghost of Uther Pendragon has told Arthur that Merlin has magic. Arthur struggles to deal with it, until he's forced to once Camelot has a familiar new visitor. ~ Morgana crooned to the guard, her words cold but soothing, smile apparent in her voice. The sharp clicks of boots snapped against the cold dungeon air as a high-headed, cold-hearted sorceress stood proudly in front of the old man. Dark hair, wild like a bloodthirsty animal, contrasted sharply against her pale, creamy skin. A dangerous smile lingered on her lips, watery green eyes gleaming with malice as she tilted her head to survey her prisoner with mock sympathy. ~ Heads up, this fic is as straight as a ruler, so don't be expecting gay smut.
