Bastard's Beginning

"I saw Camelot in ruins. Fire, smoke, blood running the streets in rivers as it's people flee."

"And at the centre of the chaos. A young woman, wielding a sword. Clad in basic armour, laughing with a pile of bodies at her back."

King Arthur's pet seer had voiced the prophecy that foretold the fate of Mordred Le Fey. Merlin, his friend and chief advisor, convinced that the child born of the incestuous coupling of Arthur Pendragon and Morgause Le Fey would spell the end of Camelot and begin a reign of tyranny that would rival even the dark history of Uther's rule.

Raised by her mother and her lover on the island of Avalon, Mordred must learn to harness the power within her, a combination of the two most powerful bloodlines in the world, and learn to differentiate friend from foe. When magic itself starts to stir and forbidden love blossoms, the Bastard Princess will have to choose a side.

Author's Note- This book is my own take on the Arthurian Legends. Whilst some details will remain the same, most of the plot, characters and general world building is of my own creation.
