At first you thought you'd stay on the safe side of the tracks...

Okay, so. I started writing this eleven days ago, according to my google.docs file. It's a freaking epic Merlin genderswap fic that came about because I had the vague notion that I wanted to put Merlin in a dress. THAT'S IT. I feel like I should offer a prize for whoever makes it to the end, because it's probably going to be a test of endurance. *sighs* I hope someone likes it. *returns to her dungeon!porn*

Title: Dewiniaeth (roughly translates from Welsh as magic, or witchcraft)
Pairing: Merlin/OMC, Merlin/Arthur
Rating: NC-17
Wordcount: 32,127
Disclaimer: Not mine, complete and utter fiction. Probably.
Summary: Nimueh is set on destroying the Pendragons, yet again. They do say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, after all, and this time it's Merlin who bears the brunt of her scheming. Fairy tale princess he is not.
Warnings/Spoilers: HET. I hail from bandom, where that is most definitely a warning. There's slash, don't worry. Genderswap (obviously), if that squicks you. Spoilers....just say for the series in general.
A/N: I am well aware that the summary sucks, but please read it anyway. Thanks times infinity to caedesdeo, who did another prompt, accurate and thorough beta job with this, and who didn't tell me to shove off when I emailed her every one of the corrections I made after she sent me it back. Also for reminding me six times about the sugar.
