Merlin is the lost prince of Draconia. It has been 13 years since his uncle attacked his kingdom and he was forced to flee. His uncle still searches for him. What happens when some knights from Draconia show up in Camelot asking for help to defeat a dragon? I suck at descriptions. *HIATUS* Note: I may or may not have found out what happens at the end of season 5 of Merlin. *cries* so I haven't had the heart to watch season 5. Nothing from season 5 applies. Takes place at the end of season 4. Lancelot's alive. Aithusa is good. This goes for the whole book: I DO NOT OWN MERLIN. *sadness* I DO NOT OWN THE PHOTOS ALL RIGHTS GO TO RESPECTIVE OWNERS

I wrote "Pygmalion's Lover" for an English course where we were required to write an adaptation of a Greek/Roman mythological story in play form. I decided to write my paper on the Greek myth of "Pygmalion", being drawn to its peculiar take on obsessive love. write about the story of "Pygmalion". "Pygmalion" is a story featured in Ovid's famous work Metamorphoses which holds a vast selection of famous Greco-Roman myths. In the process of writing my paper, it sparked an idea for a future short story for a modern-day twist of Pygmalion. I hope you enjoy this one for now though!

Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw, named after a Greek mythological figure. It was first presented on stage to the public in 1913. In ancient Greek mythology, Pygmalion fell in love with one of his sculptures, which then came to life. The general idea of that myth was a popular subject for Victorian era English playwrights, including one of Shaw's influences, W. S. Gilbert. Shaw would also have been familiar with the burlesque version, Galatea, or Pygmalion Reversed. Shaw's play has been adapted numerous times, most notably as the musical 'My Fair Lady' and its film version.
