Until he does.

Summary
The war for Albion has been brutal.
Peasants the land over exchange stories: tales of once-fertile wastelands, carrion feasts, kingdoms splitting at the seams like flesh and sinew on the battlefields. The Kings of old lie buried in unmarked graves, the number of warlords dwindling down until only a handful remain. One stands apart, for only one incites in people a fear more potent than their fear of the Gods themselves.
Pendragon.
OR
Merlin's patience is tested.

Summary
The buzzing in Mordred ears has replaced all coherent sound. Fillingfillingfilling his brain upupup until only raw, unadulterated horror remains.
The buzzing stops. Along with everything else.
Arthur is poised mid smack, hand raised to cuff Merlin in the neck. Frozen. Silent. And so is everything else. Knights practicing on the training field, a bird flapping its wings in the autumn air, servants buzzing around their masters and lugging laundry baskets. Unmoving. Frozenfrozenfrozen.
"Hello Mordred."

Summary
After Merlin dies inexplicably while sleeping in Arthur's arms, the king is left cold, grief-stricken, and unprotected against his last remaining enemies. As the autumn leaves fall and the harvest begins, he must lean heavily on his friends and best knights for strength, feeling lost and lonely beyond anything he's ever experienced without his beloved sorcerer pattering at his side.
On the third day of harvest, the citadel is attacked by Morgana's last surviving followers, and amid the battle a figure arrives—wielding mighty magic despite his humble appearances, gold flashing in storm-blue eyes which Arthur knows like his own soul after fifteen years. But Merlin is calling himself 'Emrys' and fights under the enemy's banner with no memory of Arthur or his time in Camelot, and with that, the king is faced with what might have been, had Merlin not chosen to love him from the very beginning.

Merlin's magic by CitadelVeilt, Theroundbartable
Fandom: BBC Merlin, Good Omens (TV), Merlin (BBC), Merlin (TV), Merlin - Fandom, Merlin BBC, Merlin TV
14 Jun 2025
Summary
This is a series based on BBC Merlin.
It's about Merlin's magic and his relationship with Arthur. In as many different ways as I can imagine.
The knights and servants and other characters will also have many appearances. But the main focus will be on Merlin and Arthur.There is no need to read the stories in any order or all of them at all. Each story is it's own idea. They can be read separately.

Summary
He and Mordred have been in the armory for the better part of half an hour, supposedly polishing swords, but Merlin can say with a fair bit of confidence that he’s the only one actually doing anything. Mordred has been rubbing the same spot on his sword with the same cloth for twenty minutes, heedless of the fact that if it gets any shinier it’ll probably blind them both, and maybe Merlin’s just being paranoid but there’s something about it that makes the hair on the back of his neck prickle and his magic hover on the tips of his fingertips. Mordred has a faraway, slightly vacant look on his face, so Merlin isn’t nearly as surprised as he’d like to be when Mordred asks abruptly, “How do you do it? How do you kill all these sorcerers and magical creatures and live with yourself?”
Or: one meaningful conversation between Merlin and Mordred leads to another, and then another, and before he knows it, Merlin's getting ready to throw caution to the winds and join forces with Mordred.
