Summary
Merlin had failed. Despite all his efforts, Arthur had ended up dead in his arms on the shores of Avalon, so close to salvation. Surely, this could not be how their shared destiny was supposed to end? No, it was all Merlin’s fault—he had made all the wrong choices, misinterpreting prophecy after prophecy. If only he could go back and try again, now that he knew better, maybe he could right his wrongs. Maybe he— Oh. Maybe he could go back…
Ignoring Kilgharrah’s protests about the impossibility of what he aimed to do, Merlin let all his power loose, becoming one with the fabric of the world and the magic he was born of. After following the bond he shared with Arthur through the winding paths of time, he finally emerged a decade into the past, having successfully seized a second chance to get this whole destiny thing right. Unfortunately, he would have to win Arthur’s trust all over again, seeing as Merlin was alone in remembering anything of the future he was hoping to change. Or…was he?

Summary
Arthur died. Then Arthur wakes up. One week after Merlin begins his service as his manservant. Ten years worth of future knowledge is at his fingertips and the chance to make everything right: to rediscover Merlin, magic and all; to be the brother Morgana needed him to be; to spend more time with Guinevere and be the man she knew he could be, the man he aspired to become; to confront his father and change Camelot for the better.
But Arthur’s a prince again. He hasn’t known Merlin for one year, let alone ten, Morgana has no idea they were friends let alone related, Guinevere still thinks he’s a prat, and he has to act the part of a prince if he doesn’t want some poor sod getting killed in the hopes of lifting a fake enchantment Uther thinks was cast on his son.
Things are about to get a whole lot more complicated.

Summary
It wasn’t fair. Arthur was only supposed to be in Camelot for one week. A single week, while he solicited more grain for his starving village. That was it.
Instead, he managed to somehow save the life of a prattish prince and was now bound by the king to serve him.
And what was with the dragon in the dungeon, calling him the “Once and Future King?”
Life, most definitely, wasn’t fair.

Druids, especially, have been hunted down like animals and there is no sanctuary to be found. The spilling of innocent blood at a tyrant's hand begs the question: Was peace ever even an option?

Summary
When Arthur wakes up, he doesn't have any memories. He doesn't know who he used to be or what the world is. What he does know is his name. And oddly enough that he can trust Merlin. He sort of has to, Merlin's the only person he knows and the poor man needs all the assistance that he can get, since Merlin only has one arm. Eventually, Merlin begins to teach Arthur about the world but there's several things Merlin won't tell Arthur about for some reason.
One day, Merlin says he wants to take a trip to collect the stories of the people. It turns out that this trip ends up revealing more than Merlin wanted Arthur to know about. And finally, Arthur will learn what is cost Merlin to bring the dead once and future king back to life.

Summary
Merlin smiled watching the two different types get along so easily, they danced and laughed like there was no war between them. They had fun like there was nothing in the world that could ever bring them down, she envied them. She sighed and got up, she brushed some dirt off her silky dress. She didn't have time for dancing, she had lessons to learn, dragons to train, and more importantly, a war to stop.
