Summary
Guilt wears many faces.
There is the kind you inherit — before you ever speak a word.
The kind you forge yourself — in blood and haste.
The kind born of silence — when you should have acted and didn’t.
And the kind that lingers longest — when love is offered too late.
Most people carry one.
Some carry all of them.
Guilt does not fade with time.
It simply waits — quietly — to see whether you will carry it like a burden, or let it carve you into someone worth becoming.

Day 11: “You Dare Accuse My Own Ward Of Becoming A Traitor?” by cactuscandle

Summary
Merlin glanced warily down the corridor before slipping into Morgana’s chambers again. Instantly, he felt a sharp poke into his chest as Gwen held a candlestick threateningly before lowering it down with a hasty apology once she saw his face.
“I thought you were the guards,” she explained and Merlin waved her apologies away.
“No, no, that was good. Arthur’s leading searches for the boy,” he said as he opened his bundle of fruits and breads. “I heard Lady Emilia’s maidservants were thoroughly questioned after one slipped and mentioned a druid lover she used to have.” He pushed past the curtain to find Morgana cradling the boy in her lap. “How is he?”
“Still asleep, but he’s much more pale than he was before.” Morgana accepted an apple gratefully and gestured for the others to eat as well. “Of course Arthur’s trying to find him. So desperate to get on Daddy’s good side. He would try to find the boy by himself so that Uther will praise, like a dog would perform for a master,” she said with a growing smile. Merlin snorted involuntarily.
Or what if Mordred's first appearance in Camelot went a little differently?

Summary
Every story has a beginning; some just have a better beginning than an ending.
We create and imagine a good ending for each story we read. So, what if there isn't a happy ending? What if we were doomed from the beginning?
Our fate has already been written in the stars by the flutter of a butterfly. Perhaps not all stories require a satisfying ending to be a good story.
