Temporary Art Masterpost for Goss - Paperlegends 2013
Please note, this is a temporary Merlin Big Bang 2013 art masterpost for goss, and all the beautiful art here was created by her. She has suffered a major PC crash. As a result, she wasn't able to make a master art post in her own journal, and she hasn't yet posted all the art she made for this story. Until she can make her own post, please feel free to leave her feedback here.
Title: Art for "Para Bellum" by destina
Artist: goss
Fandom: Merlin
Pairing: Arthur/Merlin
Rating: PG (hints of violence)
Medium: Pencil and watercolor (for all pieces)
Art #1
Scene: He fished a bit inside his sleeve and produced a small, ornately carved box. Merlin took it, with a sideways glance at Arthur, and opened it to reveal a parchment within.
"I have guarded this long, in the hopes I would not need it." Alator waited until Merlin had broken the tiny seal and unfolded the paper. "But I believe the time has come."
"I can't read all of it," Merlin said, squinting at the neat script so meticulously laid down on the yellowed paper. "My lessons with Gaius haven't progressed this far."
"If you will permit me, I will recite it for you." Alator closed his eyes, gathering himself, and after a moment, he began to speak.
Art #2
Scene: "Bring the sword." Mordred held out his hand, palm up, and one of the Druids placed a beautifully wrought sword into his hand, the hilt wrapped with hammered gold. Mordred lifted it in the air with magic. "Instruct the dragon to burnish this sword with dragon fire."
Art #3
Scene: When they were in total darkness, Morgana spoke again. "This is where he held me for five months."
Merlin could feel water seeping into his breeches; the chill settled in his bones, brittle and unrelenting. The darkness was absolute, stifling. "What is this place?"
"The bottom of a deep well." Morgana's disembodied voice seemed to echo through Merlin's mind. "I was imprisoned here by the Sarum of Amata. You've heard of him, surely."
Art #4:
Scene: Stop, thought Merlin, and the sword arrested its motion a hair's breadth from his face.
