Summary
“I have been trying to figure you out,” Marco says. “You can’t just be the twin of the reincarnation of Merlin and not be connected in some kind of way.”
For as long as she could remember, Sadie Emrys and her brother Miles have been inseparable. From social outings to group projects, the two have faced everything together, which is why Sadie never suspected that the King Arthur project would be any different. But when Sadie is partnered with Marco – her brother’s tormentor- to uncover the legend of the Lady of the Lake, she soon finds her life shaken up by weird dreams, old legends, and new feelings for the boy she realizes she never really understood. -

Summary
A new spin on the Arthurian legends, with Merlin and Arthur as lovers. Basically revising a lot of the flaws I saw in the BBC Merlin series, with a lot of the same characters and events, while also drawing heavily on the old legends, and inventing some new ideas of my own. Imagine it as a reboot of the series, but in fic form.
Morgana, Gwen, Vivian, and Nimueh will all be more fleshed out, complex, and sympathetic than they were in the TV show.
This story deals heavily with Merlin's father - who is nothing like Merlin's father from the TV show, but is instead a way for me to reconcile with Merlin's character and actions in the original legends. In those stories, Merlin is much older than Arthur, is directly responsible for his birth, and does a few morally reprehensible (that is, misogynistic) things prior to Arthur being born. I've decided to give that role to Merlin's father Wyllt (named after Myrddin Wyllt, a Welsh legend on whom Merlin is partially based).
Merlin and Arthur are both faced with the problematic legacies that their fathers left behind, and the destinies which have been forced upon them.
Can they change their fates, or are they doomed to repeat the mistakes of their ancestors?

Summary
In order to aid the rebellion, Adora has left Brightmoon to gather intelligence in the distant town of Fright which lies in the shadow of one of the Horde’s fortresses.
The townspeople are well known across Etheria as supporters of the Horde and are notoriously hostile to outsiders. The mission is already difficult enough without the realisation that these people are afraid of something, something from the lake.
But hey, the enemy of her enemy is her friend, right?
(The Horde thinks they know how to deal with witches but they bit off more than they can chew this time)
