Once Upon A Time (Epilog)...
Eventually, as the gladness of Galahad invaded Morpheus, the spell on Ionia weakened and she would wake will Morpheus would sleep. The cuts healed and soon she was the maiden of gladness once again.
Galahad was right in his belief that Ionia was the one woman for him in all the land and before long the two were wed. But though they were happy and their house was always light and joyous, they were never graced with children. All thought this was one last curse from the dread Morheus.
The Land and Skye cleared and returned to former glory and health. The people were again contented and the harvests were bountiful. In all ways the realm was returning to health. But the land did not have a king.
The people offered to Galahad the throne of the Land, for it was only he who had the faith and courage to finally fight for the good of the Land and the people, but Galahad refused. He was the people champion, not their ruler. And with that the knights formed a counsel to ruler the land until a rightful heir could be found.
Many years later, Morpheus escaped from his dark tower in the castle and no posse was sent to find him. Honestly, the guard had grown weary of watching him and the spell with Ionia so faint that is really did her no harm.
No land was perfect, and with Morpheus loose this was certainly the case. But the flaw can be so small that is not noticed. So tha land lived on and all the people were happy.
