Summary: At the christening of King Arthur and Queen Guinevere’s daughter, Morgana blissfully declares that the child will be dead by the end of the week. Merlin must seek help from an unlikely source in order to prevent this from coming true. But is every ‘death’ final, or merely the passage to a new life?
Author’s notes: Written for the Help Fight Depression Auction for ella_rose88 who requested a Merlin-verse fic based on the Doctor Who episode 6x07 ‘A Good Man Goes to War’. I have also borrowed a similar concept from Sleeping Beauty. The title of this fic was inspired by two poems by William Blake ‘A Little Girl Lost’ from Songs of Innocence and ‘The Little Girl Lost, The Little Girl Found’ from Songs of Inexperience.
