Your gateway to endless inspiration

Lyutohek Let the mask blush. I was thinking about a topic today. Sad. But according to Merlin.
Of course, there is an assumption that what grew nearby was what he put, but I believe that Merlin still knew the meaning of flowers, so he probably still picked up things that meant something. I warn you, everything that follows is solely my speculation, possibly wrong at the root. But I couldn't help but think about it.
Beloved. The first person he buried alone. He decorated her boat with ferns. In British superstition, it is one of the most magical flowers. It has a huge number of meanings, but they all come down to one thing - it's a magic flower. In principle, a fern can be called a symbol of secret miracles. (starting from thoughts about his invisible seeds and ending with the legend of the flowering of the fern, which is well-known even among us) And it is impossible not to notice that the short time he spent with his beloved was almost the most magical, it was love that was accompanied by witchcraft, and, to be honest, Freya's personality itself is quite magical, yet not everyone, even in that strange world, turned into a big cat. But it seems to me that rather it is a reference to the fact that their love was short, bright and very beautiful. Like a fern flower that appears only once a year, and plucking it is almost impossible to keep, because evil spirits will come and you only have to turn around, as they will catch up with you and everything will become like

Friend. A close friend. The one who accepted Merlin entirely, not so much with feelings, like Arthur, as with his mind. I'm not sure what kind of flowers are lying next to him, but it seems to me that they are lilies after all. Unfortunately, I can't say anything about white flowers, because I don't know what they are, although it seems to me that they should give some meaning in combination.(actually, I think it's a highlander, but I'm not sure.) But first about the lily. I didn't find any British legends about this, so I'll try to catch the general meaning. In general, it is a symbol of the short duration of life and freedom. And considering the situation in which Lancelot died, I think that's what matters. The transience of life, which brings freedom. Something like that. It is also a symbol of purity, a symbol of someone who, no matter what, has not stained himself with evil. Perhaps this is also a sign. That Lancelot himself had never stained himself, no matter what happened to his resurrected Morgana body.
Arthur I won't talk about who Arthur is to Merlin. But I have three versions of why nothing was put in the boat of the king of the past and the future. The first is that he is everything, that nothing concrete can show his greatness, that he is self-sufficient, that it is impossible to emphasize or add. The second is that Merlin simply did not have the strength to decorate anything. and the rest were, yes… and the third, most likely, is a symbol that Merlin did not bury Arthur, he just sent Arthur to where he should sleep. This theory is supported by the fact that this is the only boat that he did not burn. Well, really, you won't decorate the bed where your friend sleeps with flowers, even if he has been sleeping for more than a thousand years.) That's the optimistic end of my reasoning.
