    Summary

    “It was never supposed to end like this. You were both meant for such happier things.”

    “I was always meant to be a tragedy.” Arthur disagrees.

    “Dearest darling, you are the king of kings, this will not be your end.”

    With Arthur's death comes a single chance to go back to the beginning and save everyone he's ever loved. Seeing home in Merlin's eyes and a hope for a better world in Morgana's, Arthur knows what he must do.

    Only bringing magic back to Camelot will prevent the future he knows is coming from happening, but in his way is the only mountain he's never been able to climb; his father won't change for anyone, not even for his son.

    Summary

    Morgana is escalating her attempts to see herself on Camelot's throne. When her plan to have Gwen executed or have Arthur leave Camelot with Gwen fails, she decides to cut her losses and poison Arthur. Merlin saves him, of course, and reveals his magic in the process much to Arthur's annoyance. Once the dust has settled things seem to go back to normal, but on a hunting trip gone wrong Arthur's blade gleams with a silvery magic light as he kills the last bandit attacking them. The thing is, Arthur never had magic before Merlin healed him.

    Summary

    Three years into King Arthur’s reign, magic users across Camelot are growing restless. Though no more executions have taken place since Arthur made peace with the Druids, sorcery is still punishable by death. Frustrated and increasingly impatient, a group of rogue sorcerers decides to take matters into their own hand, kidnapping Merlin right from under Arthur's nose.

    Thus begins a long journey, one where Arthur unearths some hidden truths about everything he thought he knew and Merlin's loyalty is put to the test.
