Why this must be read:


Despite being dominated by Arthur/Merlin, the Merlin fandom has two amazing female characters and is quite femmeslash friendly. This is my new favorite Gwen/Morgana fic.

The tagline for Series 2 (premiering soonish...at some point!) is: "You can't escape destiny." But what exactly is that destiny? One of the most interesting things about Merlin as a show is the ways in which it re-imagines and re-interprets the Arthurian canon, a canon that is incredibly fractured to begin with. This fic plays on that notion brilliantly through the means of Morgana's visions. And there's Gwen/Morgana! What's not to like?

On Swefnum, Incuthra Eorthan is by turns funny, warm, and ultimately poignant, all in around 1300 words. Highly recommended.

Oh, thanks for this rec! I love Arthur/Merlin, but sometimes I just want to read a fic about awesome women doing awesome things, something that's sorely lacking in the Merlin fandom.

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed! I'm going to try and include some more Gwen and Morgana-focused stories in my recs set this month. :)
