Plans for the Party
The Halloween ball at Pendragon's mansion was always the talk of the town. Everyone who was anybody waited anxiously to get an invite.
In the middle of the maelstrom of anticipation and frantic costume-planning, the Pendragon siblings and their significant others were quite at ease. They had long since decided on their looks for the evening.
Arthur had dressed as King Arthur of legend several years in a row, but this time he'd decided to change things up a bit. He would be Sir Galahad, the pure knight, and with his golden hair he looked surprisingly young, brave, and innocent in shining armour.
Gwen couldn't help teasing Arthur gently about his purity, or verifiable lack thereof. She herself had made a gorgeous medieval-inspired dress based on young Julie Andrews' stage attire as the Camelot musical's Guinevere. She'd even rented a fetching gem-studded coronet to go with it.
Morgana planned to appear as Galadriel. She'd jokingly hinted at bleaching her long hair blonde for the occasion, and had enjoyed Merlin's horrified yelps at this suggestion. Promising to wear a blonde wig instead, she kept practicing her magic to make dazzling lights shoot from her white-gold ring. At the party, halos of brightness like rippling water would constantly be dancing around her.
Merlin planned to make use of his magic too. He'd be Harry Potter in the Cloak of Invisibility. Granted, even magic as strong as his could not truly make him invisible, but he could bend perceptions so that people would look past him without really noticing him. It was a difficult spell to get right, and to everyone's jump-scared annoyance, he practiced it constantly.
With only one week to go, the four of them were certain that this would be their best Halloween bash ever.
