The Exile, Two Spoilers

Last weekend I sat around writing and posting to my blog. I wrote a couple Exile spoilers per reader request.

I
Guinevere studied the clip. A sun carved from bronze, it's rays lucisous black curves. When she’d worn it the gleaming black had seemed to emanate from her hair as if it were not simply an adornment, but somehow a part of her. This one from Matilde was not identical to the one Arthur had given her, yet it was similar enough to stir anger, confusion, that same sense of bereftness that she had felt the morning she left Camelot, and other feelings that Gwen did not want to examine. 
She remembered Synove’s shocked face. Seeing the barrette in the other woman’s hair had been like seeing Synove on Arthur’s arm. She let her fingertips slide over the metal, savoring the gentle warmth that seemed to be a part of it.
Gwen took a deep breath and turned to Ylsa who sat on her bed reading. 
"I think its time I speak with Matilde."

Merlin studied the sign above the door, a sleeping angel. This must be the place. He lifted the heavy knocker and let it drop. It wasn’t long before he heard a muffled shout and then the little door window opened. A pair wide dark eyes in a dark face peaked out at him. 

"Who is it?"

"My name is Merlin. The Mistress of the house, Ms. Alfonsa is expecting me. Are you she?"

The window closed and a moment later he heard locks turning. 

"I’m Ylsa."

The door opened and he could see that the speaker was a petite woman with a crown of cloudy dark hair.

Right Now....

I am working on an Arthur chapter. He's finally remembered that Morgana invaded right before the Elfstroke.

Exile Teaser: The Question on Arthur's Mind

So I've got this Guinevere and Arthur, fanfic, The Exile. I've been writing it on and off for a while, but its been some time since its last update. Today I have a little teaser for you. Merlin wasn't perfect and it didn't treat Arwen well in the end, but I loved them.

Upcoming moment in The Exile, Arthur wants to know if Guinevere is alive:
 
...The surface of the liquid was still, placid, black almost to the point of being unseen, it reflected not even light. Arthur could not, but stare at it, trying to understand a thing that he could see, but reflected no light. The heady warm scent of the incense his aunt had set to burning at the start of this puffed over him and he remembered her instructions "think of your question".

        Guinevere, was she alive? Was she well? Would he yet see her again?  This had been with him since Sarah Goode jumped to her death, the feeling that Guinevere was not, as her brother insisted dead. The placid surface rippled, in the darkness there was light, a shape took form. Guinevere! His heart began to pound.

She wore an expression he had never seen before.

Arthur had observed his love in joy, in anger, in sadness, in the more subtle sorrow, in grief, in relief. He could recall with ease the way joy had mixed with dumbfounded disbelief when he'd asked her to marry him, or the languid, satiated expression he'd been allowed to observe on more than one occasion, or even the sleeping innocence he'd observed that chaste night she'd fallen asleep on his shoulder.

What he had never seen on her face was the cool rage he observed now, a murderous expression he had never believed Guinevere could wear….
