He falls short of luck, for the King has fallen back on the counsel of his faithful Witchfinder, Aredian, who is convinced that Arthur is not Arthur, the crown prince, but a changeling, bound to Morgause's will and let loose upon Camelot to usurp Uther of his crown.
As Arthur is dragged away to the dungeons, sentenced to a death by fire, Merlin must race against time to change the course of events which seem to spell out Arthur's demise. Time is scarce, however, and for all intents and purposes, it might be too late already.

Summary
“Merlin,” Arthur said. “Is that you?”
“Yes?” Merlin answered, still cross-eyed. He started to sit up, then froze when everything suddenly became much shorter. “Oh, something’s gone really wrong, hasn’t it?” he realized aloud, refocusing on Arthur. He seemed to be trying to creep around the edge of the clearing, keeping as much space between him and Merlin as possible. “Don’t be like that, you prat,” Merlin chided. “I might have been turned into a—“ he looked down at himself, seeing two very big, very clawed forelegs,“—dragon, but it’s still me.”
