Summary
Those with magic killed his father when he was thirteen, leaving Arthur with a kingdom, a throne, and a enemy. The Druids speak of Emrys as magic itself, the perfect token of vengeance and spoils of war for Arthur to claim. Neither victory nor Emrys are what Arthur expects. His kingdom has no honor, he doesn’t feel like a king, and his prisoner believes he can bring about a Camelot he can be proud of. Perhaps there is more to the Druid prophecies than the lies his uncle has told him.
**Dark Camelot AU. Mentions of rape, physical abuse, and death. None of it between Merlin & Arthur.**

Summary
“Galiad, fifth son of Chrockland, former Knight of Camelot, for your grievous crimes against the crown, I hereby sentence you to execution, death by beheading–”
Galiad fell to his knees, ears ringing. He never should have tried to kill the King. It had been a stupid, reckless decision, and he could not believe he’d been so easily bribed into it.
He had let his ego get the better of him, and now, here he was, on his knees in the throne room, fighting back tears, trying not to throw up all over the stone floor, begging for his life to be spared.
And here’s the real kicker; he wasn’t even on trial for the attempted murder of his King. His Majesty didn’t know about that.
No, Galiad was on trial for the crime he’d committed against King Arthur’s manservant.

Summary
Arthur pulled back, watching Merlin. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Merlin let out a loud snort before he could stop it. “Yeah, right. Arthur, you can ask that same question for just about anything and I’ll always give the same answer. You didn’t even believe me about Agravaine. What do you think would have happened if I came up to you and said that Morgana, the girl you grew up with, is betraying you? You would’ve laughed in my face.”
“I would not.”
Merlin raised an eyebrow and Arthur flushed looking away.
(aka how arthur finds out what merlin knew before anyone else)
