    Summary

    What Arthur knows: Merlin, his clumsy and foolish servant, is actually quite smart. He’s also loyal, and brave, and in many ways the reason Arthur has so many good people in his life.

    The goal: Make Merlin realize how important he is to Arthur, no matter how stubborn he's clearly chosing to be about it.

    What Arthur does not know, yet: Merlin has magic. Also they're very slightly a little bit in love.

    It's going to take them a while to figure it all out. Meanwhile the knights have known for ages, Gwen figures it out pretty quick, and pretty much all of Camelot has also known ever since that weird peasant stumbled through the gates and challenged the Prince all those years ago.

    Summary

    Arthur was tipped back against the wall, his mouth open for breath and staring at the small arrow-slit window over Merlin's head, trying to work out how it could possibly be that good with Merlin, of all people.

    Summary

    "I saw mage Merlin, whose vast wit
    And hundred winters are but as the hands
    Of loyal vassals toiling for their liege."

    Summary

    "Two vials sit cradled in Merlin’s palm. Their contents are near identical—one filled with a clear liquid, the other a cloudy one. If he closes his eyes, there’ll be no way to distinguish between them."

    Merlin has waited thousands of years for Arthur's return. Now, he makes a decision he never thought he'd make.
