Prince Of Camelot: Choice And Destiny is a Merlin gen fusion with the Black Jewels series (19,790 words). It was written by tielan for the Alternate Universe Big Bang 2010 and is supposed to be the first part in the The Jewels Of Albion series. The cover graphic and a wallpaper are by azarsuerte.

The story is an AU retelling of the first episode where Merlin comes to Camelot. It has some interesting twists, and the premise of the book series fits really well into this universe. The four planned books are "Prince of Camelot" (Merlin's story), "Camelot's Widow" (Morgana's story), "A Warlord Prince's Price" (Arthur's story), and "A Queen For Albion" (Gwen's story).

Summary: Camelot Territory has had no Queen since Igraine died in a power struggle between her husband, Prince Uther, and the Black Widow Priestess Nimueh. For twenty years, a male council has ruled the Territory, led by Prince Uther, unwilling to trust any witch with a claim to power. Now, a new generation is coming to maturity - among them, Uther's son, the Warlord Prince Arthur. And with the arrival of a young man from one of the outlying villages, a young Queen is about to come into power in Camelot.
