Summary
What would have happen if in merlin's grief he resets time to the day he enters Camelot ten years ago, but all magic like this has price. Merlin an immortal can give his life, but he can give his life.
or, Merlin resets time to ten years ago and looses his memories, but everyone and I mean EVERYONE remembers the past timeline.
or, the time travel fix it trope but Merlin is the only one who doesn't know about his past life time.

Summary
The fires were still blazing in the lower town, and Merlin was bleeding from a stab wound in his side (not even to mention his gushing head wound from when Morgana had thrown him into the castle gate), but none of that was new territory, necessarily.
Not especially since Merlin had officially become Court Sorcerer and Arthur had legalized magic two years ago (although, Merlin supposes, that isn’t quite accurate; he and Geoffrey had compiled some data just last week, and attacks and sieges on Camelot had gone down by thirteen percent since magic’s legalization, and that was nothing to snuff at, even Gaius agreed).
No, what was new territory that day was the middle-aged bearded man claiming to be Arthur standing in front of him, blocking him from the entrance to the throne room, where he knew Morgana was fighting with the real Arthur.AU from season 4, basically. Post-reveal, with Merlin in his Court Sorcerer era. Also, a classic time travel situation to really muck up Merlin's day. Obviously Morgana's fault.

Summary
Sheriff Merlin Emrys is the only lawman in the old west town of Griffin Creek, Montana. He wears the badge of his father, Balinor, murdered seven years earlier. Standing over his father's grave, he'd made a solemn vow to bring his killers to justice. Despite his strong suspicion that Uther Pendragon, a wealthy rancher and the leader of the notorious Pendragon Gang, was involved, Merlin lacks the evidence to arrest him.
When he is informed that the Pendragon Gang is heading for Griffin Creek, the sheriff knows he must protect the people of his town. Alone, he confronts the gang as soon as they ride into town, only to discover that they are no longer led by Uther, but by his son. Merlin finds himself inexplicably drawn to Arthur Pendragon, despite knowing his gang was wanted for everything from cattle rustling, to robbing banks, to saloon brawls, and even murder. He soon discovers that Arthur is nothing like his father, and Arthur begins to question everything from his own heart to his father's legacy. As their relationship grows, the bond between lawman and outlaw becomes one of legends.

Summary
Arthur and The Knights of the Round Table were currently one of the, if not the most famous band in the world.
The sound they produced was catchy, new and managed to remain fresh after each song. All of their talents merged into one to create something beautiful, and the king that led his knights to battle (pun intended) was the center of it all.
All in all, Arthur had everything, the looks, the wealth, the fame and the love of all the people around the world… well…
Everyone’s except Merlin’s… -
