Morgan Le fay Point of view

My sister and I had many problems with each other when we first met and that escalated until the downfall of Camelot itself and the death of Mordred.

I couldn't help it, my desire for the throne of my father and didn't want Artoria to get in the way of my future plans for Britain while yes I do come from a different plain unlike the Morgan she knows off, I do have her memories as I intermingled with the knowledge that the throne of heroes provided for me intern to learn and improve on passed errors of judgement.

Looking at Artoria's eyes which were dead merely now focusing on the path in front of her, grass trampled from decades of horse and carriages and remains of former buildings nearby.

'there were once 3 Pendragon's and one creation of magic'

Fujimaru Ritsuka (Gudako) Point of view

The Journey was quiet to what was once Camelot, Mash stood beside me holding onto the shield of Galahad tightly looking almost cautious.

Eyes darting into the treeline looking for unnoticed figures that will pop out and ambush our group in mere instances this almost happened except with bears and remnants of dragons.

"Master, you ok?" Artoria Caster patted my shoulder with her staff looking almost worried "You seem worried"

I looked back at her and shook my head in denial before picking at my pristine nails "I'm not worried Castoria just confused about all of this happening, I thought all of the lost belts were done and that was it but it seems I was wrong"

She seemed to take my answer and looked ahead much like the others except Merlin of all people who stared worried as both his brows furrowed at my answer but didn't ask further questions.

Mordred Pendragon Point of View

I felt agitated as the rush of unrestrained anger boiled through my contracted muscles, clarent glowing a faint hue rattled catching me off guard.

'whats gotten you're attention?'

My eyes focused at the distance soon noticing, shadows of something laying down on the floor and large poles sticking out of the ground and shining bright from the sun's rays.

"Master" this seemed to catch everyone's attention to me except my father "I'm seeing something over there in the distance almost like bodies of some sort"

"Could it be Humanoid?" This question pondered Mash as I decided to take a much further inspection.

'the fuck did this kind of damage?"

What I saw were corpses badly mutilated from head to toe but oddly precise in certain places as well but this wasn't an average bandit attack from what I could tell even Morgan got a closer look.

"These corpses belong to children and see one or at least two adults" morgan clued her staff humming with magic "seems this was a rather large family"

___________

General Point of view

Merlin and Artoria stood behind the group investigating the bodies while both sets of eyes looked at the cliff and saw the ruins of a village below and a castle miles away.

"Do you think something of importance could be there you're majesty?" Merlin pondered the wind flowing through his hair with grace. "After all this place is emitting some sort of emotion from you"

"This place was the knight of skies home village, I personally knew them, their family and visited from time to time having supper" Artoria personally smiled at the memories that It created "but that was long gone after hearing news that it was burnt to the ground by raiders when I took rule as king"

The two stayed quiet until everything was interrupted by screaming, the king and wizard turned around to see what happened.

'what on earth happen!'

'where did those screams come from?'

____________

The screams turned out to come from village below and without any minute to spare Gudako jump down the cliff slope skidding against the rocks and dirt.

After Fujimaru landed with minimal injury she clasped both hands together leaving an opening in the front.

"HELLO!!"

Her shout got no response except the sounds of meat being pulled and torn, mash got Infront using the shield as a wall.

{I seem to be detecting some unusual readings in the area you are currently at master, the magic levels here are extremely potent and almost alive} Da Vinci stated over a hologram and shows the amount occurring here. {This is quite the bizarre discovery}

"I don't like this at all, feels like we're being stalked or watched" Mordred gripped clarent tightly the exhausts now opening for a full attack. "You getting anything Merlin"

"Somewhat, I am feeling the presence of a lifeform nearby but it's not human" Merlin launched a spell into the nearby houses which caused a massive explosion

*BOOOOOMMM!*

The shockwave revealed what Merlin had found, it was large and muscular with faint colouring of bone appearing in small gaps especially in the joint areas of its body, quills looking like that of a porcupine were on its forearms and were barbed.

Its face had a smooth yet roughened stone texturing to that of a roman statue and had four eyes one below the other but the most unusual thing about it was its legs almost dragon in fashion but the appearance of an arachnid/horse with scales and hairs covering them.

{That is a new monster I have never seen before, it has the characteristics of a berserker but the skills of a saber and caster, we must approach with caution-} Da Vinci warned but was fortunatly too late as Mordred unleashed a large spire of lighting at it with clarent.

_______

The explosion from clarent killed it in an instant leaving only its hind legs behind and Mordred having dilated pupils in the process.

"Better late than ever Da Vinci!" Disengaging her helmet "that was the only one right Merlin?"

Merlin nodded not detecting anymore of whatever those things were from his magic alone. "Was it really required for you to kill it that quickly Mordre-"

{Wait, wait I'm picking up something else near the village streets whatever it is magic is emanating of this thing}

Artoria lancer pushed past the group being followed by Morgan and Castoria behind her as the street became more clearer.

Gudako and others quickly followed not wanting to be in two separate groups.

Artoria Pendragon (Lancer) Point of view

This feeling of magic was faintly familiar to me as it almost rivaled that of Merlin.

"These sacrifices are required for the greater good of this world as you would know that wouldn't you Arthur"

Rhongmynaid glowed bright in my hands as well both my eyes knowing that voice sounded familiar including Mordred whose helmet soon appeared again.

"I know you are there, dear imposter you'd think I didn't know the very presence of your group when first arriving here from the heavens above"

In the village square standing on the fountain top was a familiar knight whose cloak, torn to shreds and was mended with fragments of bone.

"I am not an imposter as I am the real thing and I am the king you know all to well

Knight of skies"
