CHAPTER 1

In a land of myth, and a time of magic. The destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young boy. His name… … Merlin.

Arthur's POV.

"I need someone that can pose as a lady." Uther said to his son Arthur.

Hmmm…. Arthur was thinking why? So he asked, "Why father do we need some girl to pose as a lady?"

"Because Lord and Lady Darnin and their daughter are coming and I have a feeling that they want to marry their daughter to you. So we need someone that no one knows and have never been seen. Someone that looks like a lady and can act like one to."

"But don't you usually want me to marry for the good of the kingdom?"

"Yes, but this time it will not help the Kingdom. It will be a horrible thing. For their daughter will run the servants and people to the ground if she doesn't get what she wants."

Just then Merlin goes to speak up but thinks better of it. But Arthur sees this and turns to Merlin and asks, "Do you have something to say Merlin? If you do then I suggest that you say it."

Merlin goes to say that he knows someone but Uther interrupts, "What would a servant know? No we will do this ourselves."

"Merlin, do you know someone that will be willing to do this?" Arthur asks as he ignores what his father said.

Merlin nods his head. "She lives in Elador and she will help if I ask her."

Great she's probable not even pretty. I shouldn't have asked Merlin. I go to say no but my father interrupts and says, "Good will you send her a letter asking her to come here to Camelot and I will then explain it to her when she gets here."

"But father…" I argue.

"No this is our only chance for they will be here in a couple of days and Elador is only a day or twos ride from Camelot." He says out loud but whispers to me, "If she doesn't look nice then you will have to deal until they leave."

We all leave the room and I go to grab Merlin, "She better be good looking or I will make your life a living hell."

Merlin just smiles to me and then leaves as I let him go, saying as he leaves, "Of course sire."
