This will be tweaked and won't completely follow the Fate/Wikia.
I am making this to answer un-answered questions in a sensible fashion.
Summary
King Arthur is the 'Once and Future King' of Britain. Her true gender was kept secret from public knowledge. Only a select few, the knights of the round table and her personal physicians. Her tragic story is one of duty, conflict, love, chivalry, and ultimately betrayal. These chapters will go into detail of her life and how she lived. It will make clarity from the unknown.
Prologue.
"A girl?!" A loud and displeased voice echoed through a dimly lit hallway.
"Yes, your Majesty. Igraine has given birth to a girl." The mid-wife replied timidly to the king. His
face was pinched in disappointment. He sharply turned his back to her and stomped through the
stone hallways before she could say anything else. His crimson cape flowed behind him. He
threaded through a wide hall, with large windows that showed a sea of tree tops, he then turned
to a more narrow hall with no windows. At the end of the hall was a lonely wooden door, it
seemed just like the rest of the wooden doors that the kind had passed as he hurried through the
halls, but this door seemed very out of place. As he swiftly headed down the hallway he was
reaching his destination, but just before he could reach for the handle on the door, the short-lived
and subtle cry of a newborn escaped from the room behind the lonely door and the King had
stopped in his tracks. He became hesitant to open the door and enter the room. He took a deep
breath, grit his teeth and reached for the door handle, placing his hand on the handle, he slowly
pulled it forward which caused it to make a clanked noise. He placed his other hand on the door
and pushed it open.
It was a candle-lit room with no windows. There was a large carpet which covered most of the
stone floor and there were banners hung up on the walls. There was a large bed with thick
blankets stretched across it, and there was a blonde haired woman who laid under the blankets.
Her arms were over the blankets, they were cradling a bundle of wrapped white sheets. Her eye's
met the king's eyes and she smiled warmly at him.
"Forgive me, Uther. It seems my womb can only bear girls." She says calmly. She beckons
King Uther with her free hand to come to her side. He slowly walks to her, keeping his eyes
strictly on the bundle in her arms. As he walks to the side of her bed, the face of a baby is
reveled to him.
"She has your eyes." She says, looking lovingly down at the newborn. She cuddles the
newborn close to her face.
"Igraine, are you feeling well?" His eyes look down to the floor carpet from the mother and
child.
"I am very well, perhaps a bit tired though." She lays the baby next to her and re-positions
herself onto her side.
"Would you like to name her?" She asks as she places her hand over the baby wrapped in
white linen. The King does not answer. She looks up as him, his face turned back to
disappointment. She opens her mouth as if to speak, but words are lost. The baby makes a
quiet noise. Almost a yawning sound. Igraine begins to speak.
"Well, if you don't want to name her, I have a fine name in mind. I think Arturia would be a
suiting name for her. It's a name that stands for nobility, courage, and strength." She says,
trying to lift the tension away from herself.
"This changes everything. I was supposed to have a male heir." He clenches his fists. He
silently walks to the door and opens it. Just before he leaves, the baby lets out a short giggle,
his head shoots back and looks at his newly born daughter. His face had changed from a
disappointed look into a sorrowful one. He breathes in, and stares blankly at her for just a
moment before turns his face forward and walks out of the door, shutting it closely behind. Not
far down the hallway is a hooded figure leaning against the right wall of grey stone.
"Merlin..." King Uther announces the name of the mysteriously hooded figure. The King walks
up closer to him.
"This isn't what we've planned. Igraine was supposed to give birth to an heir." Uther had slight
weakness in his voice. Merlin snickered, his teeth showed brightly.
"But she did give you an heir, my highness." There was a hint of sarcasm in Merlin's words.
"She's given birth to a girl, Merlin. She cannot be the heir to the throne," Uther's hand
gestured as he spoke.
Merlin replied."She is the heir, Uther. And she shall be the one who will sit on your throne."
"No, the subjects of this kingdom will not allow for such a thing to occur."
"But they will, Uther. You should spend the rest of your day accepting your daughter's fate to
inherit the throne. Now, if you don't mind, I have to make a visit to the village." Merlin turned and
walked out of the hall. Before he reached the larger hallway, he stopped.
"Oh, that's right. What is your daughter's name?" Merlin asked without even turning his head.
"Her name..." The king had a hint of sorrow in his voice. "Her, no I mean, my daughter's name
is Arturia."
"Ah. Fancy that, it's a suitable name for the future ruler of Britain." Merlin continued and
turned left into the windowed hall way. King Uther quickly followed in Merlin's tracks, but when
he reached the lengthy hallway, Merlin had vanished.
"How very unpleasant." He said under his breath.
