[ She smiles, a teary gesture but a smile still and she nods, crying but caring little. ]

We both paid a price for our magic. In Camelot, it always meant lonliness. I thought - I still think this could change, here and there. I could have kept him, us. But Merlin - I am not scared anymore. I have magic. I will not cry for a world that could have been, I will try and build it, for us. Me and you, Tonks - magic won't mean lonliness forever. I pity Dean and his hatred, I would hope for this to change but until then - I will not keep myself away from Sam in Anatole. I have not the power for that. And if I won't I will lose my life and this could cause nothing but damage.

There must be a sea between us for this to work.

I'd just believed that things were different here. That people would see things in a different way.

But some people are just never going to change.

You're very strong, Morgana. I'm not sure even you realize just how much.

I hoped for the same thing, Merlin, and perhaps it can still be done over time. Even when people such as Dean Winchester.

[ Her smile widens at the second part. ]

When we last saw each other at home I was willing to go live with the Druids, even though it meant leaving Camelot. I suppose that here I accept leaving Anatole if it will keep matters peaceful.

[That's right. She'd wanted to stay with them. He'd dragged her back.]

[He wonders how different things would've been if she'd been allowed to stay.]

I'll visit. And bring Aithusa. And obviously, anything you need.

Your company would be more than enough, Merlin. Thank you.
