“Morgana.  Morgana, wait!”  Merlin raced after Morgana.  He grabbed her elbow,quickly backing off when she lashed out with her other hand.  “Come back in here. We’ll talk. I do believe you.”

Her face crumpled.  “But you just said-”

“I know what I said.  It’s just that it’s scary, alright, talking about, well, what you were just talking about.  Please come back inside, Morgana.” Merlin looked around carefully before he took a deep breath and let the tiniest bit of his magic color his eyes golden.

Morgana gasped, “Merlin!”

“Yeah.  Let’s talk inside, alright?”

A tiny glimmer of hope shone in Morgana’s eyes as she followed Merlin back into Gaius’ chambers.
