I'm really sorry for such a long wait for this new chapter but I have had severe writer's block. If anyone does have any ideas for this story please feel free to suggest them in the reviews.


Sefa pulled on her cloak and prepared to finally leave the Dark Tower. She had helped Morgana prepare for the Queen's arrival. Morgana had already gone to get Gwen so Sefa decided it was time for her to leave.

Over the few days Sefa travelled back to the hut where she had been living before Morgana had taken her.

It was so quiet when she reached the hut. Thoughts of her son were the only thoughts that broke through her new hatred of Mordred and Morgana's will to take revenge on him. 'I hope he's alright. I don't know what I'll do if anything has happened to him.' Sefa thought as she thought of Melehan.

Entering the hut cautiously she found it empty. With this her heart dropped. What had happened to Melehan? Was he okay?

Before Sefa panicked a small piece of paper on the bed caught her eye. She moved over to the bed and picked up the letter. Sitting down she took a deep breath, preparing herself for whatever news the letter contained good or bad.

The letter said: To whomever else lived here,

We, the Knights of Camelot, found this hut to have been attacked. We are sorry to tell you that the old woman who lived here was killed and we buried her. As for the child we found we can assure you that he is safe and we took him back to Camelot with us where he will be taken care of.

If you wish to find him then come to Camelot and ask for Sir Mordred as he is the one who is caring for the boy. If we see you soon we look forward to it, if not then good luck.

The Knights of Camelot

Emotions raged inside of her as she read the letter again. She was pleased that her son was safe and cared for but enraged that he had been taken to Camelot and that Mordred was caring for him. Although he was her son's father.

Sefa crushed the note in her hand at the thought of Melehan being raised in Camelot but not wanting her anger to get the better of her, she took a deep breath.

'I know what I must do.' Sefa thought as she laid down on the bed and tried to sleep or al least get some rest.


Meanwhile in Camelot Mordred was still recovering from the Disir's poison. However after days of simply resting Mordred was becoming restless and so decided he could get a bit of light training in.

Mordred dressed quickly as Melehan sat on his bed waiting for Mordred to pick him up. "Come Melehan I'll see if I can get some training in today." With this Mordred headed to the armoury.

Before Mordred opened the door he could hear the other Knights inside. Smiling to himself, he opened the door and walked into the armoury with Melehan on his hip.

"Ahhh...Sir Mordred finally graces us with his presence." Gwaine joked as he clapped Mordred on the back before turning his attention to Melehan. "He's getting big." He said nodding towards Melehan. "That he is." Mordred replied.

"What brings you down here? I thought you were still resting." Percival asked as he put on his armour. "I'm growing restless. I thought I would try and train a little today." Mordred replied to Percival's question.

"Where is it you all are going?" Mordred asked looking around, readjusting Melehan as he did so. Elyan turned to Mordred and answered, "Gwen and I are going to visit our father's grave. The others are coming as protection for my sister." Mordred nodded understanding what it felt like to lose a parent.

"I wish you a safe journey." Mordred said. "Well, seeing as we're all ready, we will see you later Mordred. Don't strain yourself too much. You have a child to care for." Gwaine said as a farewell. The Knights all nodded to one another before leaving and left Mordred alone in the armoury.


Hours later when the Knights returned Mordred could tell something was wrong. All wore solemn expressions and all moved quickly to meet Arthur. Hearing the news that Morgana had taken Gwen shook Mordred. He knew Morgana was prepared to do anything to kill Arthur and get to the throne but to take Gwen seemed wrong even for Morgana.

'What is it you're planning Morgana? Why are you doing this? I know you wish for the throne but why take Gwen? Is it all to get to Arthur? Are you really as far down the path of darkness as this?' Mordred thought that night after putting Melehan down to sleep.

Although Mordred had sided with Arthur it didn't mean that he had stopped caring about Morgana. She had been the only one to truly care about him in his youth and had become a mother figure to him. To see her as she was now disturbed Mordred because he happily remembered the loving, caring woman she used to be and wondered what had happened to her to change her so greatly. In truth he missed Morgana.

He also dreaded what Morgana had in store for Gwen as he knew that Morgana believed Gwen had stolen her throne from her. He just hoped that when Arthur found Gwen it wasn't too late.


When Arthur and the Knights returned with news that Gwen had been rescued but that Elyan had been lost, he was torn. Happy that the Queen had been saved but sad for the lost of a friend.

Attending the funeral was tough, mostly because he had wanted to be with his son the entire time but had to stand in front with the other Knights as was custom. Mourning the loss of a friend was never easy but something Mordred knew well, he had lost many friends under Uther's rule and hoped and believed things would get better with Arthur.

With the boat Elyan was now in burning, the crowd began to dissipate and retreat back towards the castle. For the rest of that day all was quiet in Camelot and also subdued to pay respects to their fallen friend.

Percival trained alongside Leon, Gwaine drank, Arthur and Gwen stayed in their chambers quietly, Merlin stayed with Gaius and read while Gaius prepared medical supplies, and Mordred stayed in his chambers with Melehan.

Each not really knowing how to deal with Elyan's loss, a loss that would be difficult to get over.


Sefa however was busy trying to devise a way to get her son back and get revenge on Mordred. Although she wanted revenge she was unsure how to go about it. How could she go about it? How could she get revenge?

She sat for what felt like hours, but was really only minutes and came up with nothing.

Sefa's trouble with coming up with revenge because of her nature; she was sweet and innocent and so was unable to think of something as cold and cruel as revenge. Unable to come to a decision, Sefa decided to contact Morgana.

Waiting for Morgana Sefa began to become unsure of herself. How could she do this? She had no idea what she was doing and had never done anything like this before.

Before Sefa's thoughts could become too unsure, Morgana appeared. "Sefa what's wrong?" Morgana asked feigning concern for the girl in front of her. Sefa sighed. "I have no idea where to go from here Morgana. Melehan has been taken to Camelot. Mordred has him. I know I can't barge into Camelot and take my son away, even if that's what I want to do." She replied.

Morgana put her hands on Sefa's shoulders. "Sefa, everything is fine. Mordred may have him now but he will not have Melehan for long. We will get him back. However I feel as if you are not saying something." Morgana said straightening up.

Sefa nodded and answered, "I am at a loss of where to go from here. What is our plan? What should I do?" Morgana smiled to herself and tried to calm Sefa down.

"Sefa we must bind our time and strike when Mordred least expects but also in a manner which will hurt him most. But we must be patient. As for now begin thinking of Mordred's weaknesses so we may strike him hard. I must prepare for what the Queen and I have planned for Arthur. Once Arthur has been killed we will take revenge on Mordred." Morgana said.

Sefa felt herself relax and somewhat relieved that she now had some idea of what to do. Morgana left after this and Sefa went back to the hut where she had been staying.

'For now Arthur's defeat was more important but as soon as Arthur was dead and Morgana on the throne Mordred would pay for betraying Morgana and leaving me behind.' Sefa thought to herself as she entered the hut. That night she dreamt of her son and their life together once Morgana was Queen.


Mordred meanwhile, put Melehan down to sleep next to him in bed. He didn't want to be away from his son for a moment longer than necessary. After all, he had just lost his friend and had no idea where Sefa was.

Mordred that night too dreamt of his son but his dreams were filled with a life where Arthur remained King.


I hope you like it. Again sorry for the long wait.
