Who: Arthur and ~~Merlin~~Morgana
What: "..."
When: Shortly after learning this
Where: The library
Rating: Disturbing
Status: Incomplete

Arthur had waited as long as a location to leave. Getting to the library was priority, everything else was secondary. He flung himself down the streets with a single-minded determination that shoved everything, everything into the back corner of his mind. He had to find her. Nothing else mattered to him. There was nothing more important and if he ran down people as he moved, he never once noticed.

It wasn't until he reached the street with the library that he slowed, nearly stopping completely. What if he'd been lied to? What if she wasn't here? What would he do then?

"Four blocks." She affirmed. Her eyes peeled the road before she gave Artur a short warning, "I'll hail a cab." and ran a bit into the street. Flagging the passing cab. When the vehicle stopped Morgana pulled out what money she had, not all of it but hopefully enough, and ordered, "Take us to the closest funeral home. Don't ask any questions." The cab driver cut his eyes to her, Gwen's body, and she looked as if she was about to argue. Until she cast her eyes on Arthur and nodded.

"Alright." The woman said.

Morgana turned to look at Arthur.

Arthur noticed nothing so much as the heavy stillness of Gwen's body draped along his lap and tucked within his arms. The wounds on her neck were congealing and grotesque in a manner that had Arthur reaching for her hair to cover them as rapidly as he could gather fistfuls of it.

She could be sleeping peacefully the way Arthur held her. The bow of her lips was curved in a slight smile that would stay that way permanently. Arthur's shoulders shook as he bowed his head until their foreheads met and the coolness of her skin finally set every aching part of him into action until tears were falling heedlessly down his cheeks.
