I don't think I'm going to get all my chores done today.

[Esecially if Merlin hasn't completed them by this late hour. Normally he finishes them in plenty of time to go sneaking around. But not even a night of following Morgana through the forest could give him dark circles like he's sporting right now.I'm wishing that I'd paid more attention to

Perhaps I can offer assistance with the chores.

voice;

[pratservant]

Well, you are the second best boot polisher I've ever seen.

voice;

[ofvirtus]

Only second best? My, I need to shape up then.

voice;

[pratservant]

Good luck trying to best me, my friend. I've had years of practice.

voice;

[ofvirtus]

In that case, I may have to concede defeat.

And console myself in the fact that I am still better than Arthur.

voice;

[pratservant]

[Merlin's quiet for a moment before switching over to Private.]

I'm afraid it wouldn't take much to be better than him at anything right now. He's more sick than he's letting on.

Gwaine, how are you feeling?

private;

[ofvirtus]

Him as well?

[ beat ]

I've been feeling off myself. I'd assumed something about this place wasn't agreeing with me.

private;

[pratservant]

[That was what he dreaded to hear.]

Something hasn't been agreeing with a lot of us. I can't figure it out.

private;

[ofvirtus]

Do you suppose it's simply a plague of sorts?

private;

[pratservant]

It could be. There's so few symptoms though. Nothing like what I've seen before.

People just seem to be feeling more and more tired.

private;

[ofvirtus]

I'm doubting sleep is the best remedy for this.

private;

[pratservant]

You're probably right. Feels like if I went to sleep now, I'd never wake up again.

private;

[ofvirtus]

Mm. I don't like the look of this at all.

We'll have to stay awake.

private;

[pratservant]

Yeah, we will.

Arthur and I have seen something similar. Magic was behind it.

private;

[ofvirtus]

Magic?

It's not forbidden here, I take it.

private;

[pratservant]

No, I've seen people use it rather openly. Even that Mist is said to be magic.
