The Reality of Fantasy

Reflections on the beauty, depth, & truth, that can be found in fandoms & fantasy (plus cool photos/gifs). #Merlin #LOTR #HungerGames #HarryPotter (but mostly Merlin). ^_^

For mine is the choice of Lúthien, and as she so have I chosen.

Write about what really interests you, whether it is real things or imaginary things, and nothing else.

“You miss him!” Hermione said impatiently. “And I know he misses you —” “Miss him?” said Harry. “I don’t miss him….” But this was a downright lie. Harry liked Hermione very much, but she just wasn’t the same as Ron.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil.

A Message to Alex Vlahos

This is a screencap of our message to Alex Vlahos on Twitter. If you’d like to help promote Merlin 6: Kingdom Come, you can retweet this letter to his official Twitter account. The more people send it, the more likely he’ll see it.

“For I am the daughter of Elrond. I shall not go with him when he departs to the Havens: for mine is the choice of Luthien, and as she so have I chosen, both the sweet and the bitter.”

Such is of the course of deeds that move the wheels of the world: small hands do them because they must, while the eyes of the great are elsewhere.

What Happens Next for Merlin 6: Kingdom Come?

Thank you for your tremendous support of Episode 13 — and of all the episodes. You’ve been brilliant. Again, it is a wonderful compliment to our team that so many people across the globe believe our work is worthy of being filmed as the official sixth season of Merlin.

Now, many of you have asked if you could share our script with the BBC & the Merlin cast. If you truly believe in this project, and would still like to see it onscreen, now is the time. Please promote it as much as you like. Spread the word. Spread it everywhere. To the cast, the crew, anyone who would enjoy it. Let this Kingdom Come. If everyone tweets about it, perhaps you can get it trending on Twitter (use the hashtag: #Merlin6KingdomCome), or at least alert more readers.

You will likely not receive an answer directly from the BBC. We believe you would have the most luck with Alex Vlahos and Eoin Macken (and the other actors who played Knights), as they interact more frequently with fans via social media.

Keep in mind, the likelihood of this becoming the official sixth season is still quite remote. And we do not want to pester the cast (again we loved the show’s original finale). But we firmly believe that if the actors themselves read our season 6, they would love it and perhaps could exert some influence at BBC. In addition to developing the plotlines and hints already in the show, much of our character development was shaped by opinions and preferences the actors expressed during interviews, etc. So we believe they would genuinely love it. If nothing else, we’d love to share it with members of the original Merlin team, even if only for their enjoyment. Whatever comes of that is up to them.

 We have already corresponded with BBC, Shine, etc., so there are no further steps we can take. However, perhaps your response could make a difference.

Whatever happens, we have loved every minute of the journey, and thank you all from our hearts for all the feedback and support. Cheers!
