Summary
Merlin follows Arthur on his quest to the Perilous lands, returning not just with his friend alive and well but also a new kingdom. Magic has lost so much from the purge and the years after and the first rule of magic is that there must be balance, so it gives back. Creating the Kingdom of Oplaria, ruled by King Emrys.
But Merlin is not so keen to abandon his destiny and Arthur, he spends his time between the two Kingdoms constantly torn between his friendship with Arthur and his duty to his people and magic. He is good at secret identities after all.
But with Arthur constantly sidelining Merlin how long can he make excuses to stay?
And how much will this change not only the Prophecy but also the future of Albion?This is follows the show from Season 3 episode 8 -> Season 4 episode 13 but will include storylines from other episodes.
If like me you loved all the side characters well then get ready to get a lot more time with them (especially if you love Mithian, Elena and Vivian).

Basically "Deliver Us" from the Prince of Egypt and Merlin being Daenerys Targaryen

Summary
“Merlin was too driven by grief for his other half that he turned back time, but magic like this always has a price. For Merlin to turn back time he had to give up his memories of that time.”
Or, merlin resets time to the day he enters Camelot and meets Arthur 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 the past lifetime.
(Ignore that Chapter 4 is actually Chapter 3, i’ll fix it when I get the chance.)

Summary
In an Albion where the oceans are higher, where Camelot is a port city and pirates plague the seas, Prince Arthur Pendragon struggles under the weight of his duty and his doubts. For almost twenty years he's honed himself to become the sword his father wants him to be, but he's begun to wonder if a ruler relying too much on the sword is more dangerous to his people than any foe.
Meanwhile Lady Morgana can no longer avoid the shadows that plague her in her waking hours as well as her dreams, and resolves to save herself from exhaustion and madness. But searching for forbidden knowledge in Camelot can be deadly, even for the king's ward.
And Merlin, the prince's manservant, holds more secrets than either of them. Between trying to free the dragon under the castle, protecting Arthur from magical threats that Camelot is no longer capable of grappling with, and keeping his head attached to his shoulders, he can barely keep up with his life as it is. Throwing in prophecies is just excessive.
This is a story carried by many hands, because in a land of myth and a time of magic, the destiny of a great kingdom can't be shouldered by any one person alone.

Summary
'Merlin’s world had been greyscale for his entire life. Everyone started out that way, until you met your soulmate and the colours around you materialised and you were supposed to live happily ever after, or so everyone said. Except Merlin, who saw hundreds of new people every show and had been all around the world on tours, was still yet to find the person that would turn his world bright.'
Merlin, singer and violinist of Ambrosia, has been looking for his soulmate for years. He's sick of the greys that make up his world. With his band on tour and Camelot up next, maybe his colours are closer than he thinks.
This is Prismatic from Merlin's point of view, they can be read together or alone.

Merlin Emrys, a Slytherin 6th year at Hogwarts, is looking forward to a successful term. He has his best friend Gwen, the respect of professors and students, and a spot on the Slytherin Quidditch team as a talented Chaser.

Best friends when they were young, Merlin and Arthur now battle in a fierce rivalry, both on and off the Quidditch pitch. After an accident, however, the two Hogwarts students slowly start to rekindle their friendship, only for it to lead to much more.
Relationships are tested, emotions rise, and secrets of the past are revealed. -

Summary
They sit there quietly for a few minutes, clock ticking away as Arthur drinks his coffee and Merlin lets the steam of his own waft up his nostrils. Something about the simple potential, the easy domesticity, sets Merlin off.
Before he can stop it, he sets his coffee down, puts his head in his hands.
“Merlin, what—” Arthur starts, distress evident from the way he sets his cup down as well and reaches forward as though more touch could help this.
“Why do you keep doing this to me, Arthur?” Merlin asks, breath huffy and voice all cloggy-sounding. He’s embarrassed, he realizes, that he’s let this go on in the foolish hope that Arthur will wake up and realize that he does love Merlin, not Gwen.
He feels Arthur still, because his arms are splayed out in front of himself on the table as though he were trying to reach for Merlin.
Merlin gets no answer to his question, though.
“Leave, please, Arthur,” Merlin says roughly; he has to force himself not to call him back when he hears Arthur take a breath in sharply, before standing, gathering his few things, and leaving the apartment.

Summary
Before moving to Camelot Merlin never imagined leaving his small town with his mother. He never imagined training to use his magic instead of hide it, and he had never imagined what might happen when the crown prince he had seen so many years ago started showing up again and again in his life.

Summary
Merlin reveals his magic in the battle against Morgana and Helios.
He wakes up in the prison cell next to Morgana’s.
This is actually not the worst thing that could happen to them— or to Camelot.
…
“State secret,” Morgana said bitterly. “Uther probably killed the sorcerer who did it, but these dungeons were charmed to make sure no one could use their magic down here.”
“The perfect place to store Emrys and the last High Priestess of the Old Religion,” Merlin said wryly.
Morgana gave him a strange look, and Merlin shrugged. He didn’t really understand it either.

Summary
This is a collection of the drabbles I wrote as a member of the Merlin website Heart of Camelot. They feature a whole range of characters from the show, not just regulars but guest ones too. They are a mixture of happy, sad, mournful and friendship stories, just like in the series. I hope you enjoy them.
