Disclaimer: In the beginning there are lines taken from the actual episodes of Sins of the Father. I do not own them, the characters or the original plot line for this episode. However, I thought Arthur had more balls and would totally overthrow Uther if he was pissed enough.
Spoilers: There will be spoilers for all three seasons (even if I haven’t seen the last few episodes of s3)

Author’s Note: Sooo many people to thank. skylar0grace for the amazing last minute art pickup after my artist had to drop out and the wonderful art she has provided for me, omgosh; paragraphs for the wonderful beta and not making me feel like I didn’t know the English language (which as happened to me with beta’s, so thank you :D); prplhez8 for reading through my fic to see if it even worked in what….April? blue_eyed_1987 for being a lovely cheerleader and me sort of…failing at reciprocating lol. Everyone on the chat, 4lol, those were such great times. And the_muppet for pretty much being awesome and a fantastic bigbang mod.

Finally I want to thank my f-list for putting up with all my bitching and whining for the last six months while I procrastinated forever. I’ve been talking this fic up so much it is ridiculous. I have wanted to write this since watching Sins of the Father when it aired, and all I had then was the beginning and the flashback. The rest of this fic was a series of writers blocks and moments of feeling like a fucking genius.

I’d also like to thank summer television for eating my time away. Yeah. Thanks for that.

In addition to the fantastical art done by skylar0grace, when I finished my fic I spent twelve hours making my own art (because I really can't ever help myself, ever) and posting it on my tumblr. If you've seen it there, this is old news, but if you would like to check out what I myself have made for this fic please do at this post here. There are some spoilers.

Spoilers for the fic

Ages: Because I changed them around a few times and it’s always nice to have a time frame. In the flashback (eight years prior to Sins of the Father) Arthur is 13, going on 14 and Morgana has literally just turned 16; In present Arthur is 21, while Morgana is 24 and Mordred is eight; After the three year time skip, Arthur is 24, Morgana is 26 (going on 27) and Mordred is 11.

Spell Translations: I use a few in a concentrated area. At the end of every line with a spell in it you can highlight the translation to keep from going back and forth from here to your place. I know they suck, don’t judge me. Sé holt æt foranniht - the forest at dusk; Háligreft forsuwung ofer ús - a veil of silence; Ábégan ælfolc sendan - put my enemy to death; Ábýg - swerve; Sníðung - cut; Byreas - strong wind; Þóþer sylfum bælfýr - sphere of sacrificial fire; Ymbseten beféh se drýicge - surround the witch with vines; Handseax áræmem ofsticende híe - dagger elevate, stab her to death; Ic ábannan eormengrund þrówung déofol écnes - I summon the Earth to take this evil for eternity
