Guinevere wraped the shawl closer to her body as she ran to Sasha's house. It had been three day's since the incident in the forest had happened. Sasha had not been able to remeber much, but Gwen hoped that she would remember soon so the king's knights could arrest the colprite. It was early in the morning and the beautiful sunrise was beaming down on Gwen. The brigt, unusual colours of the clouds gave Gwen a slight pick-me-up. She was ready to preform her duties as Sasha's maid, as she had been doing for the past three day's. She had been tending to Sasha, and she had recovered quickly. The strange thing about what had happened to Sasha was that she had complained about pains in her bones - all of them! She finally made it to Sasha's wonderful house. She knocked silently on the door, hoping that Lady Sasha was awake.

Sasha got up and opened the door, excitedly. She was forgetting about what had happened to her in the forest. "Gwen!" She smiled. "Come in!" Sasha moved out of the way for her maid to enter her home.

"Thank-you my lady!" exclaimed Gwen as she walked into Sasha's home. She turned back to Sasha and gave her a friendly, comforting smile which was laced with pity. "Do you need anything done my lady?"

Sasha considered this for a moment, inspecting her whole house in her thoughts but couldn't see anything she needed done. "No, not really," she answered and then went on with a smile. "But, another reason you probably came here is because you want me to give you information on the incident in the forest the other day. Well, my memory is intact. I'd be glad to tell you." No. She had never believed in magic, and never did... never would. It was part of a fairy tale; just that people like William Fowlent were too stuck in childhood to realize this. Sasha had no explaination for the pain that made her faint, though, if it wasn't magic... she would ask him when he was arrested. That was also why she did not understand the King. Magic was not real. So all those people had died for nothing. Nothing at all.

Gwen's eye's lit up slightly as Sasha told her that she remebered what had happened. "Pray, sit down and tell me!" ordered Gwen polietly. Gwen was quite eager to hear the story and she also looking forward to getting the person who had done this to her arrested. She shook her head slightly as she thought, How could somebody do such a thing to a kind girl such as Sasha?

Sasha sat down on a chair, and prepared to Gwen what details there were. "His name was William Fowlent," she started explaining carefully and slowly. Should she say that he had cursed her? No. Of course not. These people believed in magic, and the King would get angry about it. But she had to cover up why her bones ached so badly. "He... he was actually quite handsome. I have to be honest. Long brown hair with... I forget the eye colour. Young. And strange."

Gwen leaned closer, Sasha's words spiking her interest. The description of this young apparently handsome man was quite interesting and Gwen's hears spiked up as she listened. "Please continue my lady, and pray tell me what he did to you!" she said with a nod as she wished for Sasha to continue.

[[OOC: Late, sorry]]
"Well... I can't exactly explain it, but it... was... not good," she went on with the story. Saying that he had cursed her with the power to shift her shape into a wolf and a cat was not something Uther would fare well with... even if there was no such thing.
"He, ah... made my body ache, though, and it was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life!" The Lady Sasha expressed the word 'life' with an emphasis.
"I hope the King's Knights end up finding him soon. I never hold grudges, even if my life was in danger, so I don't exactly want him to be... hurt badly." Hurt badly was her way of saying executed.
"But chances are he'll do this to another person if he did it to me, so it's for the best." She concluded her story.

Gwen nodded her head in understanding.
"If may, I would advise you not to tell the king that William cursed you. Knowing him, he would probably accuse you of sorcery to. I think we should keep that bit between us." said Gwen caustiously.
She knew of Uther's un-rationalness when it came to magic and she did not want Sasha to suffer that.

Sasha was surprised. Gwen had just proved herself nicer! Not that she needed to, she had rescued her from possibly never being found. But Sasha wouldn't expect even the nicest of people to keep a secret such as hers. Being cursed meant she was basically a sorcerer now!
And if the King ever found out... she would be killed, of course, but along with Gwen possibly. Right now, against what she had said a moment ago, she was forming a grudge against the sorcerer William Fowlent. She wanted him caught and executed quicker than it actually would take. It wouldn't fix things for her though.
She needed him alive to ask him questions about how to use her powers. Perhaps since it was all his fault he'd be respective enough to teach her. She'd force him if he didn't anyway.
"You would do that?" Sasha lowered her head humbly. This was a huge favour Gwen was doing for her... it meant so much to her! "Thank you, Gwen... so much."
So many questions were rushing through her head. She needed to ask at least one, the most important! "But... how is it possible that I actually do have powers now?" She inquired, her head still low. "I mean, sorcery isn't real, is it?"

Gwen chuckled quitely to herself. "Oh it is real my lady. Far too real for my liking." said Gwen a kind of eerie silence falling on the place.
Gwen's mind flew back to her many encounters with magic. A tear formed in the corner of her eye as she remembered all the pain magic and caused her. Emotinal and physical.

"Really..." Sasha whispered, and looked away with a slightly disturbed face. "W-what... can I do about it? Is there a sort of cure?"
Right then she rememered what William had said to her. It wasn't word for word in her memory, but he had mentioned about her destiny to kill the King by transforming into a wolf and a cat. Seriously though, a cat? Uther had probably trained all his life to fight and kill, and then he'd be taken down by a cat? That was just pathetic... even she wouldn't dishonour him like that, nor was it even possible.
Death by a wolf was better than by a harmless house cat.

"Cure? Oh, I would not know my lady. I am but a mortal, I have no sorcery in me." said Gwen.
She shut her eyes for a second and thought hard.
What could possibly help Sasha? thought Gwen.
Then an idea struck her. It was just an idea, nothing significant, and it probably wouldn't work, but Gwen thought she'd say it anyway. Just in case.
"Prehaps... Sorcery itself could cure your curse. That is the only thing I can possibly think of. Someone of magic could surely cure you?" Gwen wondered.

Really? She thought. Healed by sorcery, the thing that's devastating me right now? Well, it worth a shot if it would make her normal again.
"That's a good idea, actually," the Lady Sasha dipped her head curtly, as if agreeing with her maid. "We, or I because I want to keep you out of danger... I have to find a sorcerer, though. And a sorcerer nicer than William." She spat out his name as if it were trash.

"My lady, in insist on helping!" Gwen exclaimed "I could not let you do such a thing alone!"
Gwen's mind was set. She would help Sasha, whether she wanted help or not!
