Morgana Pendragon | BBC's Merlin | CR-AU i guess???

[She wakes in the stables, and the dissonance she feels upon waking leaves her sitting in the middle of the aisle, staring at familiar and strange creatures alike. It's almost comforting to see horses again; she can't remember the last time she rode through a forest.

But the Barge doesn't have a stable. If they've gone to port - but she can't recall and announcement, and she wouldn't remember the Barge at all if she'd been thrown free.

That's a thought, too - free. But this isn't Camelot's stables; this isn't any stable in Albion. She can see electric lights in place of torches as she picks herself up.

A horse exhales to her right, searching for a treat, and she reaches out to pet its nose almost instinctively. She doesn't notice the journal she woke up next to, still on the floor. There are more important things to check first.

Raising her hand palm up in front of her, she reaches for her magic, eyes glowing gold.]

Leoht.

[It's bright enough in here, but she still sees the orb of light form in her hand, heatless fire, and breathes a sigh of relief. Whatever this is, she still has what makes her strong.]

[Some days, Cass just leaves the castle and walks. There's no climbing buildings or leaping from rooftop to rooftop, it's just walking. Boots on the hard-packed earth of the roads that come and go from the castle, wandering wherever she feels like going just for an excuse to be alone, to not have to see the body language of people who worry about her too much.

The stable is a place she does visit fairly often, because she's developed a fondness for riding in the time she's been here. There's rarely ever other people here too and if there are, they tend to be focused on getting their own horses settled and dealt with, or in a hurry to leave. It suits her, but today as she comes in there's a woman who is clearly new, doing magic and pleased that she can.

Curiosity wins over her desire to keep herself separate, so she takes a step toward the woman, trying to catch her attention.]

Did you... not think that'd work?

You still have your powers.

[ Derek leans against the entrance to the stables, arms folded, a bit of a frown curving down his mouth. There's not exactly horses trouncing around in Beacon Hills. So the idea of a stable is pretty cool. It's enough reason for him to be here, but not enough reason for him to be a distance off, watching. ]

[ Stalking, really, but that's neither here nor there. ]

If that's what you're worried about. [ Leoht. What does it even mean? ] Whatever it is that - you are.

[ It's punctuated with a nod, gestured towards Morgana. Yeah, he'd like to know. ]
