Sorry for the wait, school has been very distracting and brain-frying recently. Plus writers block.

     Merlin and Freya felt a rush of magic. To them it felt amazing. It was so raw and so powerful. They were both envious of Anias and her obvious comfort with her gift.

The three of them appeared in a long room. A man who was obviously the king and Anias' father sat in a chair all almond at the other end of the room.

The man was just as regal, if not more so than his daughter. He wore royal robes and a blue and gold cape. On top of his head was a crown made fully of live vines. When he saw his daughter appear he stood.

The three that had just magically appeared in the room began the long walk to the throne.

"Father," Anias said, "I bring to you today Emrys and the Lady of the Lake, Freya."

Malin, the king, simply nodded and waved his hand making two servants appear. The servants were a man and a woman and they escorted Merlin and Freya to two rooms that they would stay in until the day came that they were wed.

            Over the course of a year Merlin and Freya became accustomed to their new home. They allowed themselves to use their magic more freely and learned a few more tricks. On top of that they were both taught how to use actual weapons. And one day Malin asked Merlin a question he never thought he would be asked.

             He asked Merlin if he would like to become a knight of Venecan. Merlin thought about that question for a week or so until he eventually said yes.

             A week later Merlin was in full armor and a blue and gold cape walking down the main hall to be knighted.

Sorry for how short it is. I just needed to get something out after so long.
