    Summary

    If you ever come to harm again, think of me and I shall come, he had told her.

    There had been snow; cold and shining like diamonds under the sun; and thick, pearly rivulets of bloods staining it.

    (A body lying just out of a child's sight and a dagger presented to small and trembling hands.)

    Do you promise?, the child had asked, taking the dagger he offered her.

    He had nodded, solemn, I promise.

    Summary

    'Why didn't you come sooner?'

    'What do you mean?'

    Morgana keeps her gaze away from her. 'You've always known we're sisters and yet you let me stay in Camelot. With Uther,' she adds, a shiver running through her. 'Even without knowing with certainty I'd have magic, you must have expected me to have it. Yet, you left me there. You never came.' Morgana gazes up from her contemplation to stare at her. 'Why?'

    Or: Morgana asks her new sister a question.

    A missing scene taking place in the second timeline of Both are Light and Dark.
