Summary
After years of increasingly dangerous magical attacks, Arthur finally decides that he should know his enemy, and cracks open a bestiary to study monsters. To his shock, the book talks about people who were *born* with magic, and suddenly everything makes a lot more sense, because one of the entries reads as though it was written with Merlin specifically in mind!
Alternatively: Arthur picks up the medieval equivalent of a D&D manual, and puts two and two together, but still somehow arrives at three

Summary
After Merlin loses a patient, he finds that he can't stop himself from blaming Arthur for not doing enough to protect the druids. Unfortunately, the situation only worstens as Arthur's inaction and an innocent death starts off a chain of events that threatens not only Camelot, but all of Albion.
Canon up until "With All My Heart;" story begins approximately a week after they return to Camelot at the end of the episode.
* * *
“Guinevere, I’m sorry, but this is important. If someone’s killing people in Camelot, I have to know who’s to blame—”
“Then look in the bloody mirror!” For a moment, Merlin didn’t realize that he’d spoken aloud; he barely recognized his own voice, vicious in a way that Merlin had never allowed himself to sound in Arthur’s presence.

Summary
Any new visitor to Camelot would have thought that it was a perfectly ordinary day; they would have looked around at the clean streets, the bright, sunny morning, and the bustling, smiling townspeople, and thought: this is a wonderful, happy, peaceful kingdom!
They would have been very, very wrong; it was, in fact, a kingdom in turmoil.
Not because of a war, or famine, or a rampaging beast or evil sorcerer’s curse. Oh, no; that would have been preferrable to the actual cause of Camelot’s turmoil. No, the real trouble was far, far worse, and it had everyone— from the wealthiest lord to the lowliest beggar— hiding their strain behind their smiles.
Arthur and Merlin were fighting.
