on poor life decisions and poorer timings

[bellator]

Time is not on your side, child, you must never confuse it and name it your friend.

There is much to be done yet. You say a kingdom is never build in a day.

I shall remind you it shall not fall to its knees in one, either.

Not without help.

[bellator]

[ Ah, Morgana. If there is one being she is actually pleased to see. ]

Not without help indeed, sister. It shall be cruel not to provide it.

[youwillgotohell]

[Morgause is the one person Morgana always wants to see, even if it's difficult to stay strong for her.]

I would if I could, Morgause, you know I would.

[bellator]

And you can, sister and in time you will.

[ a small frown as she studies her. ]

Something troubles you.

[youwillgotohell]

[She spends a lot of time in game pretending to be fine, having someone she can confide in is a relief.]

I've been held prisoner. For my own good, they say. [Three guesses how she feels about that.] I haven't been sleeping.

[bellator]

Who dares to hold you captive? Such a grievous mistake to make.

[ for they shall have to pay with their lives, certainly. She reaches for her hand. ]

Nightmares, again? Is the bracelet I gave you not helpful?

[youwillgotohell]

[And Morgana grasps her hand tightly, because she has allies and even a friend or two, but no one who cares about her well being the way Morgause has. She's missed her sister]

We call him only the Admiral. I'm meant to redeem myself. [And from the sound of it, she'd like nothing more than to make him pay.]

It isn't the future that haunts me, this time. Your bracelet still keeps those at bay.

[bellator]

There is only one thing that you are meant to do and that is to sit upon the throne which is rightfully yours. All who claim otherwise will see it in due time.

But tell me sister, why are you not sleeping?

[youwillgotohell]

[Oh, she forgot hos nice it was to have someone else believe that so fervently.] As soon as I escape, I will take it.

[Annd that is not a pleasant topic, and she hesitates.] I was held captive by monsters, for four days. [Her jaw works, her shoulders tense.] Others as well, from the Admiral's ship. They - hurt me. [Torture is not an easy thing to talk about.]

[bellator]

Are you injured sister? I can heal your wounds.

[ she is concerned, heavily so. Revenge will come, those who hurt Morgana will be slayed, certainly. But first there is Morgana herself and her sister was crucially important, the other matter shall have to wait. ]

[youwillgotohell]

[Her hand goes to her side, where there is a scar now, but she shakes her head.] I was healed.

[Physically, anyway. She tries to smile, assuage some of Morgause' concern, because as nice as it is to see her sister care for her, she doesn't want Morgause to worry.] I'm all right. These nightmares just refuse to leave me be.

Perhaps if you were having a very good day.

[bellator]

And a good day shall come for the rightful ruler of Camelot, certainly.

[ex_ammunition215]

Indeed. They can say what they like — I believe you could raise a kingdom and castle from bare stone before sunset, and raze it again by dawn, my sweetest sister.

[bellator]

You mean to say you could, brother. It is an individual truth. Most kings would not manage the former, certainly not the latter.

[ex_ammunition215]

My ability has only ever been a product of your excellent tutelage. Were it not for you, where would I be? Downtrodden and powerless, chafing in Arthur's shadow.

So it is you I have faith in, for now I cast my own.

[bellator]

And soon, the shadow of Arthur shall be gone from this land, brother.

Soon it shall bow to yours.
