Arthur Pendragon is going to be the greatest king in history, but he is not expected to do it alone. There is a prophecy that Arthur will not only unite Albion, but that he will marry a woman of peasant blood. Uniting not only the Kingdoms, but the people as well. Arthur Pendragon is immediately entranced when he meets Gaius's niece Edelinne. She spoke to him with honesty as well as kindness. She didn't care that was a Prince, as Pendragon's have treated her kind with hatred. But despite that her heart is not filled with hate and anger. When Arthur tries to see her he learns that her heart belongs to another. ||||| I do not own Merlin. I own Edelinne and the characters I create. This story is loosely based on BBC's Merlin, it has it's own storylines as well and ones followed in the show.

The Queen is by much the most powerful of the forces - Howard Staunton Arwyn was very much a political pawn, as many noble young women before her, despite her unconventional attitudes. With an unbreakable alliance in mind, her father sends her to Camelot with the hopes that her affections may be won; but the trials of the heart soon grow complicated with a long line of enemies to the crown and an impatient King who desires nothing more than his son's share of her kingdom. Every move is a power-play in the race for the crown and Arwyn soon learns that ignorance is no longer bliss. In a world of magic and love, she plays a larger role than her stubborn naivety would allow and as her destiny and those around her dictate to whom she should hand her heart, she had better pray that she can protect her king before they're caught in checkmate.
