Special thanks to my beta [livejournal.com profile] alba17 for her speedy and very thorough work. If POV works at all in this story, it's because of her. Any additions and mistakes afterwards are mine.

Spoilers for Merlin especially episodes "The Last Dragonlord" and "The Changeling." Spoilers for Once Upon A Time season 1, especially episodes "7:15 AM", "Heart of Darkness", & "An Apple Red as Blood."

Thanks to those on my F-list who offerred encouragement

I'm looking forward to reading this. Those are some of my favorite OUaT episodes (mostly due to the Snow/Charming moments ;)). A Merlin take on the fairytale is an awesome idea. ♥

I hope you enjoy it! :)

Snow and and Charming and the whole Charming clan are my favorite part of the show, so it was fun trying to adapt their story with the Merlin characters.

I absolutely loved it! I don't really know what to say, I think this AU works really well! I don't watch OUAT so I can't compare your fic to it, but I loved all the fairy tale-like parts! Actually, I loved the whole fic ahah. So many feeliiiiings! ;w;

So, so, so glad you liked it.

You don't watch the show, but there's a huge aspect of the show I just couldn't write this go 'round since the thing was massive enough. But I'm thinking of writing a sequel to it if there's enough interest.
