Title: The Isle of Mora
Author: ceeebee
Artist: zerda_vulpes
Pairings/characters: Merlin/Arthur, Gwen/Morgana (side), the knights, Mordred, Hunith, minor OCs, etc.
Rating: NC17
Word Count: 54K
Warnings: Memory loss, a brief scene that could be considered dub-con (it occurs after Merlin’s lost his memory and Arthur doesn’t realise), human sacrifice, allusions to self-harm (blink and you’ll miss it), involuntary intoxication, violence against humans and animals.
Summary: When Arthur and Merlin go on a trip to the mysterious Isle of Mora, the best case scenario would be that Merlin summons up the courage to finally tell Arthur how he feels about him, they have amazing sex, and enjoy the scenery. The worst case would be that Merlin gets magnificently sunburnt, accidentally reveals his magic, is almost sacrificed to the Gods of the Isle, loses his memory, and finds himself on the run with an Arthur who is struggling to come to terms with Merlin's betrayal and the idea that magic is not all he was taught it was. This story is a combination of both scenarios.

Read the story here! :)

At last! Here it is! My second and final paperlegends! Thanks again, the_muppet for making it possible ^^
ceeebee and I struggled to finish in time but we managed it :)) (even if I had to improvise for the cover art as my graphic tablet decided it didn't need pressure levels anymore at the last minute....)
I loved collaborating with her and her story encouraged me to draw landscapes (which I find a bother to do most of the time)!

On to the art:
(still no consistent style whatsoever)

Cover



Ultimately, it looks pretty much like I wanted it to look despite the tablet problem. The only thing I would have wanted to work on more is Arthur and Merlin's faces but...

“It’s a map,” Merlin said, after a moment.
(really, Merlin, you sure? XD)

Queen Zenobia



“It’s a woman!” Arthur spoke
(no. really?)
finding themselves face to face with one of the most attractive women Merlin had ever laid eyes on. One of the most attractive...and one of the most naked. Merlin hadn’t been completely sure just how scantily dressed she had been from across the water, but now she stood before them - at least six and a half feet tall with bare feet - Merlin saw that she was only clothed from the waist downwards. Her skin was dark, and her navel studded with piercings.

Merlin and Arthur - Ember Lake scene



“Merlin,” Arthur shook the prone body in his arms and the panic he had been trying to keep at bay began to unravel. “Merlin”

And that's it! I can finally go to a well deserved sleep :)
Enjoy!
