Fascinating story, but such a melancholy ending.

Oh. This is too sad. Merlin got a taste of love with Arthur and it was yanked away. *sniff* *sniff*

Gwen was always the most pragmatic and effective ruler of the bunch.

Convoluted prophesy. Interesting.

OMG. you cruel, cruel person. I loved it and hated it.

I would have loved if you ended it with them meeting it was a great ending!

Nope nope nope nope
That was a mistake
I'm crying, I'm literally crying, and I just didn't need that. I mean watching Merlin is enough to bring me to tears because of their drama, and I just came here for some happy moments between these two, and this connection was amazing, and, and you just...
I don't want to say you're heartless because you're just amazing, but I'm crying. It's not cool really.

You made me bawl just as much as the show did! It was a great story tho. Thank you for sharing it!

I dont know what to say. That was beyond...beyond everything I know! That was so SAD! HOW COULD YOU END IT LIKE THAT? I can barely type this up because of how bad my hands are shaking! That was the most beautiful but saddest thing ever! HOW COULD YOU END IT LIKE THAT! *still crying*
That was so just omg!
Absolute...I would say perfection but that ending killed me! But damnit it really was perfection! I don't know what else to say!

I'd like to say this was a well-written fic, and it does the fandom and original stories justice, but I am disappointed it contained adultery and major character death without appropriate warnings. They just aren't my cup of tea, and I didn't expect them, considering they are so many points of view about how Arthur and Merlin could have gotten together, I usually stick to reading ones set before Arthur and Gwen marry, that have happy ever afters. I hope you don't take offence, I would just like you to keep in mind warnings in your A/Ns for future fics :)

depressing as hell

I really like how you wrote Gwen. Courageous to meet it head on. Regal and dignified. Mature. Very generous in spirit. We can all aspire to that.

This is an absolutely fantastic story. It's my third time reading it since you first wrote it.

GAHHHHHHH I CAN'T BELIEVE IT ENDED LIKE THAT! I absolutely adored this story, really reeeeeally loved it! I loved the idea of the bond and how they got it, I love that you made Blythe such a complex character and I loved how you portrayed Gwen as well. I can't believe that it ended with Arthur never getting his memory back though ( soooooo sad! Either way, great job!

This is an amazing story but I am uoset over the ending

I know you read this countless times but this was truly amazing! I just started watching the show and I totally ship MERTHUR now. This story is honestly one of the best written works I've come across on here.
