lost fic...

Help!

Someone on merlin_finders is looking for a fic that I know I've read and I can't remember the author or the title. It isn't in any of the places I thought I would find it, which means that one of you must have recced it to me (in fact, I think I remember that happening, but not who!)

The fic was a one-shot told from the perspective of a king of a tribe who were involved in a battle of some kind which was turned in their favour by Arthur and his knights. Interactions with Arthur and Merlin are then related, which include the king using a translator to pretend that he can't speak the same language as Arthur. I remember it because it was different, and a cleverly told version of an outsider's view, including magic (I think there was a woman who could do magic?) and Merlin and Arthur's relationship.

HELP! Does anyone else remember this fic and who wrote it - and which of you recced it!?
