Notes:

I interpreted this as the verb, “tears”, meaning to rip, rather than wet tears that drip from your face. I was going to try to make it fluffy, but uh, you can see what happened. Thanks a billionty to kleinefee92 for brainstorming the last 40 words with me:)

Work Text:

When the Cailleach rent the veil between the worlds, Morgana felt giddy. Light, even.

Her heart filled with joy as each blood drop fell from her beloved sister and the opening was torn wider.

The screams and moans of tormented souls were music to her twisted ears. Her toes started tapping and soon she was waltzing with an invisible partner.

Ecstasy ended when she turned around and the cold reality hit her. Morgause’s sacrifice had worked perfectly which meant no one got their happy ending. Morgana collapsed, puddled on the cold stone floor, and wept, voluminous tears soaking her gown.
