The next day at around dawn, Taylor met with Merlin and Gaius who were having breakfast, after a short chat Taylor confirmed that Cornelius soul had indeed been resealed into its prior container and returned to his grave, before having the entrance to his grave resealed.
Also it turned out that Cedric's soul was killed immediately after Cornelius took control of the body.
After Merlin left to go and return to work, Taylor and Gaius decided to have a chat.
" So Gaius, what did you want to ask me?" Taylor asked.
Gaius sitting opposite, put both arms on the table and leaned forward and asked quietly, " how did you manage to do it?"
" Do what?"
" Know Morgana's talent for magic, from what I'm aware you can only know someone's talent after the talent reveals itself."
Taylor understood exactly where Gaius was coming from so he revealed one of the few abilities Taylor has being able to keep for this trial.
His Eyes of questioned truth, although normally they couldn't be used in a different universe, due to his identity creation token it was able to create an origin in this universe for himself just like how he has one in the Fate universe so the eyes of question truth could indeed work.
Taylor explained it like it was something he had gained from deep research into magic, something he has experience with in not only this worlds life but also in his life in the fate verse.
Gaius was greatly surprised, to him this was an unprecedented breakthrough for any who studied the way of magic.
Although Gaius had left magic behind many years ago, it doesn't mean he has lost his respect or passion for it.
Taylor and Gaius talked for another half an hour before Taylor departed to explore the lower town, still Followed by the five knights.
While walking in the market Taylor found himself in front of a unused blacksmith's forge.
Looking around Taylor found the coal in a safe storage, Well, a safe storage for the time period.
He then looked towards the furnace that had a light coat of dust,Taylor used Magic to clean it.
"I'm going to forge something." Taylor declared to the knights.
" Sir, you can't just use someone else's forge without at least asking the owner." Said one of the younger knights.
" *sigh* Do you truly think I do not know that? However I do not know who owns this forge, so can one of you go and get them?"
Although a bit descrambled one ran off to go and get the owner.
…
About an hour after dawn, as Guinevere or Gwen as most people called her entered Morgana's bedchamber she saw her lady still asleep.
Normally Guinevere would arrive just before the sun rises, but during the attack last night she was at the makeshift hospital tending to the wounded, and by the time the attack ended and she went home so she could get some sleep it was already very late.
First Guinevere opened the curtains in order to let the sunlight in, she then opened the wardrobe, picking out her lady's dress fror the day.
Affter putting the dress on the changeing screen she readied Morgana's bath, Guinevere then walked over to the bed and attempted to wake Morgana up.
But when Morgana didn't wake up after ten minutes, Guinevere was greatly concerned but seeing Morgana looking completely peaceful she chose to wait for 20 more minutes.
Fortunately 17 minutes later Morgana began to stir awake.
With a sigh of relief Guinevere said, " It seems that you must have had a peaceful sleep my lady."
" Oh Gwen, I haven't had such a peaceful sleep since I was a child, there was even a pleasant dream." Said Morgana while putting her hand to her chest she felt the necklace.
The only difference between last night and all the nights before was the necklace Taylor gave her.
Relief could not even begin to describe how she feels, years of nothing but Nightmares.
While Gaius's remedies greatly helped, they weren't effective at all times, and they usually needed to increase in potency, as her body would build up a resistance towards them.
" Well that sounds wonderful my lady, will you like to have your bath now or later?" Asked Guinevere.
" I'll have my bath now." Said Morgana.
" well it's good that I have already drawn the bath, just allow me to reheat it." Guinevere replied.
"Oh Gwen, what would I ever do without you?" Morgana sighed.
Guinevere gave a thankful smile and went to reheat the water.
After her bath Morgana was getting dressed with Guineveres help when a knock came from the door.
" Lady Morgana, is your maidservant still there?" Asked the voice.
Confused as to why they were asking for Guinevere Morgana told them to wait for a bit as they would have just opened the door if they we're looking for Guinevere under the command of Uther or Arther, though even so this was rare as the guards were told to always respect her privacy even under orders.
Once Morgana was dressed, she had Guinevere hide from sight just as a precaution.
Opening the door Morgana saw a knight, but she didn't know that this one was one of the five that was with Taylor last night as he stood outside the door with two others.
" So what do you need her for?" Morgana said in a calm yet authoritative tone.
Putting his fist to his chest the knight gave a half bow and spoke, " Lady Morgana I am in search or your maidservant due to the Archmage wanting to use her family forge."
Upon hearing that Taylor wished to use the forge Morgana almost wanted to grab Guinevere and run with her straight to him after all not only had he gifted her he most peaceful sleep she's had in years, so this would give her a chance to repay him for that.
But before her emotions could take control, she regained control of her emotions first.
With Guinevere in tow the two lady's were escorted by the knight to Taylor.
…
As Guinevere, Morgana and the knight arrived Taylor could be sitting on the anvil with his eyes closed appearing completely serene.
The knight that escorted both lady Morgana and Guinevere spoke up, " Archmage I have brought over the owner of this forge."
Taylor snapped his eyes open and turned around.
" Well hello again Lady Morgana, it's lovely to see you again, but I hope it wouldn't be remiss of me to assume that the owner of the forge is the lady beside you?"
Before Morgana or the Knight could speak, Guinevere spoke first, " Please forgive my rush to speak, but I must correct you. I am no lady, I am just a servant."
Taylor gave a knowing smile, " Is that right. Well then, what might this serviant's name be?"
" Oh how rude of me, my name is Guinevere, but most people just call me Gwen."
" Well thank you kindly Gwen, but would I be correct in assuming you are the owner of this forge?"
"Uh, Yes it is, I inherited it from my father."
"Wonderful." Taylor then looked towards Morgana, " I do hope you don't mind me borrowing your servant for a few moments, I would like to talk about the forge, and then we can chat afterwards."
" That is no problem."
Taylor and Gwen talked about Taylor wishing to use the forge as well as how much Taylor would pay in rent to use it.
Gwen only asked that she be the one to clean the forge after use at the end of the day.
Taylor understood why she wanted to be the one to clean it, it wasn't because she didn't want him to do it but because it was something she always did for her father when he was the forge master.
Taylor agree to this, and the monthly pay to rent the forge was 5 gold coins.
(A.N: 1 gold coin would be enough for a peasant family of three to live of for a week.)
Afterwords Taylor and Morgana went on a walk in the market, they talked and had a perfectly pleasant walk together, Morgana also thanked him greatly for the necklace, telling him of how she had her first genuine dream in a long time.
Then time passed as time is known to do, Taylor became a well-known face at the forge making a good amount of money from his wears, becoming a well respected member of the community due to the fact that he never used any magic during any of the forging for items and would teach some magic to Merlin at night hidden from sight after Arther went to sleep and Merlin was… off the clock so to speak.
Uther was certainly outraged that Morgana would sometimes go out actively to meet with Taylor, unfortunately for Uther he couldn't reveal The blood relation between him and Morgana, publicly he is her guardian and not her father, only if Taylor began to teach Morgana magic would he have fairgrounds to stop any communication between them.
Fortunately or unfortunately for Uther the only thing they talked about was Taylor's travels around the world and all bits of knowledge that had no relation to magic.
But this didn't stop him from assigning five more knights to keep an eye on Taylor and Morgana only when they meet together.
And then it was two days before a jousting tournament…
