Summary
Merlin saved Camelot with his magic—but the display was terrifying enough to turn even his closest friends away. Now, the people who once cared for him look at him with nothing but fear. He’s been replaced in Arthur’s and the queen’s chambers, scorned in the streets, and pushed out from every last one of his roles.
He drifts through the castle like a ghost, watching Arthur slowly restore magic to the kingdom—without him.
He tells himself it’s enough. That it has to be enough.
Then a visiting kingdom arrives—openly magical, warm, and welcoming. For the first time in what feels like an eternity, Merlin is seen, valued, liked.
He stayed for the promise of Albion. But maybe Albion has come—and Merlin simply isn’t part of it.

Summary
Merlin is frighteningly competent and his friends are correctly concerned. Obviously they're going to follow him out to the woods. And obviously they're not going to like what they hear.

Summary
“See,” Merlin said, still with that stubborn set to his jaw, but there was a slight tremble in his voice, now. “This is what you get for sticking your nose into things not concerning you.”
“Sticking–“ Arthur boggled. “Not concerning– YOU ALMOST DIED!” He bellowed from the top of his lungs.
“Whoo boy,” he heard Leon say from across the clearing.

Summary
Leon regains consciousness after the Lamia Incident with a headache and a healthy helping of guilt. He has failed in responsibility and friendship. Merlin can't stand his and the other knights' presence anymore, and, recalling his violent behavior, Leon can't blame him. But he has no intention of losing Merlin to distrust or letting his fellow knights stew in self-hate. The damage must be repaired, for the sake of them all.
The question is, how long has the damage been there? Does Leon even have the ability to fix it?
