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.

Summary
“How do I fix this?” asks Arthur. It comes out weak, almost pleading. “If he’s asleep, how can I wake him?”
Freya looks at him, curious brown eyes searching Arthur’s expression before finally relenting. “You must prove yourself.”
“How?”
“There will be three trials,” replied Freya. “Three opportunities to prove what is truly in your heart. Only when the Goddesses are appeased will They grant you a chance to reach him.”
Arthur glances at Merlin’s still form, at the tendrils growing around his face. He did say he’d do anything.
“I accept.”
When Arthur learned about Merlin’s magic, he banished Merlin from Camelot, never to return under the pain of death. It didn’t take him long to realise his mistake, and it was even longer before he found Merlin again. By then, he was more than a little bit too late, and Merlin was already deep in an enchanted sleep.
