In a world in which Arthur told Merlin to leave and never come back after finding out about his magic.A year later Merlin is back and ready to defend Camelot with his magic.....but he's not the same Merlin.

After they had all died, all left him behind, Merlin had withdrawn from the world, wandering aimlessly alone for years. As the gap of time passed while Merlin sat on the floor, he could feel that pain, that loneliness. The time ticked on. By this point, the sun had set long ago and the moon was ma

A banquet, a drink, and one (un)fortunate mistake. Merlin awakens in Arthur's bed with little memory of the previous night, but with all of the physical reminders.While pretending it never happened works for Arthur, it's less easy for Merlin as he comes to realize that he is carrying more than just

Over the winter, Arthur slowly realises he's in love with Merlin - and has to find a way to deal with that next to preparing the yule ball and satisfying his father's expectations.

Merlin attempts to take his own life, but instead sets in motion a series of events the gods did not plan for. The gods are now scrambling to force a new prophecy. Faces from the past and present blur together as Merlin tries to save the world he wanted to leave.

After a hunt goes sideways, in a true Camelot fashion, Merlin gets stuck in a bedroll. Arthur is drowning in feelings he doesn't dare to say out loud. The knights won’t stop asking questions. And somewhere in the middle of all that, Merlin might be immortal. Overall a pretty normal day in Camelot.

When Arthur starts sensing magic, he assumes the worst. After all, magic is evil. Magic destroys kingdoms. Magic killed his mother. At least, that's what he's always been told. But as Merlin helps him investigate the truth behind his strange new ability, Arthur begins to realise that magic, and perh

“Gwen is dead and to our knowledge, Arthur has no living relations. There is nobody to claim the throne. Not legitimately, at least. That makes Camelot vulnerable to outside attacks from people who want to take the throne. There’s going to be people from within the kingdom fighting amongst themselve

Merlin is a brilliant but reserved science student who prefers to fly under the radar and stay in the library rather than participate in university social life. In contrast, Arthur Pendragon is the popular quarterback of the football team, the center of attention across campus, and—in the eyes of th

Merlin a attendu le retour d'Arthur pendant mille ans, préservant sa jeunesse grâce à ses pouvoirs. Selon la prophétie du Grand Dragon, le Roi devrait revenir au moment où Albion aurait le plus besoin de lui. Alors que Merlin se dirige vers l'ancienne Avalon, il est la cible d'une agression. Arthur,

Arthur accepted the little tube, placing it between his lips like Merlin said. “I’m gonna light it for you,” Merlin said, leaning forward. “When it catches, just breathe in.” Arthur nodded, almost going cross-eyed as Merlin flicked the lighter and held it to the end of the tube. It started to smol
