Summary
Albion was Arthur’s world, and Camelot his compass. He could be blindfolded and set anywhere on the island, and he’d be able to find his way back to the citadel. He couldn’t remember ever learning it, not really. It was in his blood, his heart. He was Albion’s, and it was his.
He looked down at Merlin, and tried not to think too hard about what the Druids had called him.
Emrys. Power. Albion. Magic itself.

Summary
The knights had sprung to their feet. Percival and Elyan had pulled him back, while Arthur and Leon stood in front. Lancelot and Gwaine were flanking them, the latter showing none of the alcohol sickness he had been prior.
But Mordred’s eyes were fixated on the wall and the text therein.
The left option stood there, upon the wall, like a tantalizing invitation, a riddle within a mystery; the right option seemed like both a warning and a reprieve from the unknown.
Mordred suddenly found himself unable to breathe.
OR:After waking up in an unfamiliar and barren room, Arthur and the Knights are forced into solving a mystery which only brings about more questions than it answers. Worst of all, Mordred fears the secrecy of sorcery will only get more jeopardized.

Summary
When Aithusa hatches, Merlin’s magic reacts instinctively: not with celebration, but with fear. The newborn dragon is transformed into a human baby, meant to shield her from a world Merlin doesn’t trust. She will only transform back to her true form when Merlin, himself, feels safe in the future Arthur is meant to build.
But Merlin has never felt safe. Not in Camelot. Not in his own skin. Now, with a child who looks like him and a destiny he never asked for, Merlin must confront what safety truly means—and whether he’ll ever find it.

Summary
When Uther Pendragon seeks out and begs Nimue to bless him with an heir, he did not realise the consequences would leave him with a dead wife and a son that possesses magic.
Arthur Pendragon has spent his life trying to be the perfect son, the flawless prince, the man his father demanded he become. But deep beneath his armor lies a secret he doesn’t understand, a power that burns in his blood and answers to his heart. A power he’s been taught to fear.
But destiny has other plans. As Camelot trembles beneath Uther’s crusade against magic, a young sorcerer named Merlin arrives with secrets of his own; and an unshakable belief that Arthur’s fate is entwined with the very thing he’s been taught to despise. As their bond deepens, so too does the truth between them, blurring the lines between friendship and something far more powerful.

No matter what role he served, Merlin had to be careful.
Always, always careful.

Summary
Merlin was supposed to be the most powerful sorcerer to ever walk the earth. Magic itself. The one destined to bring peace, the immortal Emrys the druids whispered about, half god, half myth.
And yet, he couldn’t even heal a fucking paper cut.
****
Merlin’s magic has always failed him when it comes to healing. So when Arthur is fatally injured before his eyes, Merlin has only one choice left - to break every rule of nature to keep him alive.

Summary
When a sparring accident nearly kills Arthur, Merlin reacts without thinking - and exposes his magic before the entire training yard. But the fallout is interrupted by a sorcerer’s attack that rips Merlin’s soul from his body, leaving behind only Emrys: magic incarnate, stripped of warmth and memory. As Camelot reels, Arthur must face not just the politics of magic and the prophecy surrounding him, but his own feelings for the servant who has always stood by his side. Magic has always come at a cost - but Arthur never imagined the price would be Merlin himself.

Summary
“You don’t seem like a king.”
Arthur lowered the scroll onto his lap and peered over at the child, curious and maybe a little offended. “Why not?”
Merlin shrugged. “You don’t sound like a king, for one.”
“And pray tell, Merlin, how is a king supposed to sound?”
“I don’t know,” he muttered. “Strong. Powerful.” Suddenly Merlin sat up straight, puffing his chest out and pinching his face into a rugged scowl. His voice pitched low, sounding odd in his young body. “My name’s Arthur Pendragon,” he imitated theatrically.
Arthur couldn’t help his amused snort at his antics. “Wrong," he said, returning to the scroll. "A king doesn’t have to say his name, the people would already know it.”
Merlin smiled, a teasing gleam in his eyes. “A good king doesn’t,” he mumbled under his breath, obviously still intending for Arthur to hear.
“The only reason I don’t ‘sound like a king’ is because I have to put up with all your insolence.”
That gloating smile grew on Merlin’s lips and Arthur knew he was going to lose this battle. “A good king wouldn’t put up with that either.”
