Better quality image - Ao3!

For @mercelotweek - Day 7: Gaia (free day) - And since Gaia is the Earth Goddess, I wanted to do the boys out in nature - so here they are enjoying a picnic! (except Merlin seems to have forgotten to actually bring any food... (because the artist is lazy) - he did steal the nice picnic rug from Arthur though!)

Chapters: 5/5

Summary: The fates of Morgana, Guinevere, and Mithian are intertwined in more ways than one. Not only have they shared the same burdens as monarchs, but they have also shared one another's hearts. Concealed tears and captured kisses have been their own secret language of their illicit affairs over the years, but it's high time that silence is broken as the world crumbles and built once more.

Opening:

Dearest Guinevere,

I am deeply sorry to hear of your – and Camelot's – loss. Arthur was a kind man and a noble king, and I will never forget everything that he did for me and my kingdom. It is through him that Nemeth and Camelot, I hope, will remain strong allies, and I only wish I could have spared more men to aid your knights at Camlann. Please do not be a stranger, Guinevere. I would not wish to intrude upon your grief, but Arthur's manservant, Merlin, was found unconscious outside the gates by a patrol last night and I believe it would do you both good to be near each other. I know how close you were years ago. I am more than willing to accompany him to Camelot, if you so desire, or if you should wish to have a little breathing space then you are always welcome in Nemeth.

My deepest condolences,

Queen Mithian.

Guinevere set down the letter and closed her eyes. She had been expecting Mithian to be there herself at Camlann, leading her troops, but Arthur had taken her to one side when she’d questioned the leader’s absence. In Mithian’s own words, Arthur had said, her tendency to fall for Morgana’s charms, paired with the recent loss of her father, had rendered her incapable of leading anyone. Guinevere’s anger had ebbed away, then. Falling for Morgana’s charms was something they had in common, and she couldn’t resent her for wanting to keep well away if possible. Guinevere herself had been nervous to be so close, but she hadn’t been about to abandon Arthur.

Day 1: Ladies First

A quick thank you as well to @donttouchtheneednoggle @theinternetwearingatrenchcoat @fluffypotatey for their help with Gwen and her attitude towards lying! Thanks as well to @onceandfuturehimbo for helping me out when I was in a doubt spiral about Mithian having a knife (this is that anon fic, hello 😊), and to @little-ligi for being a wonderful cheerleader 💖

A special mention as well to @atlantablack whose fic was so well-written that I thought it was canon and inadvertently included a mention of it in the final chapter!
