    After a terrible battle against King Lot's army, leading to his disastrous magic reveal, Merlin is captured by the enemy's side.

    It has been years since that day, and much has changed. But stuck between four walls and used as a fighter for entertainment, Merlin has no way to find out how much and what.

    Summary

    Arthur sputtered. “I-I’m not sure that’s wise, I mean, no — I —”

    Merlin interrupted. “That sounds like a good idea to me! No offense, but you guys are pretty useless against magical opponents.” He threw a smile at Lancelot that the Knight returned. “I mean, what’s the use having the most powerful sorcerer in the world on your payroll if you don’t use him?”

    -OR-

    5 times Merlin tells Arthur he's the most powerful sorcerer in the world, and 1 time Arthur believes him.

    Summary

    “‘Not one for alcohol’, huh?” Arthur chuckled, holding out his goblet for Cordina to fill. The girl cast Merlin a curious look but kept her face downcast as she served the king, holding the pitcher securely with both hands to ensure no wine spilt. “No sense lying to the girl, Merlin, everyone knows how much time you spend in the tavern and you’re certainly not drinking water the whole time you’re there.”

    For a moment Merlin was so overcome by confusion that he froze entirely, his brain turning Arthur’s words over again and again in an attempt to gain some sort of understanding of what the king was prattling on about. The lords and ladies at the table turned to face the two men, their attention caught by Arthur’s statement.

    “The tavern?” Merlin’s face scrunched up as he searched Arthur’s face for any sign of a jest, only to find he was completely serious. “Why the hell would I be in the tavern?”

    -

    As the Golden Age begins, Merlin realizes that it will take a long time to tell Arthur everything that he's kept hidden from him over the years. Starting with the lies he wasn't even aware of. Why Gaius continuously chose the tavern as an excuse, Merlin can't be sure.

    Summary

    "Sorcery is illegal in Camelot."

    Merlin bows his head, awaiting the swing of Arthur's sword. The metal stings where it kisses his bare neck. A slight breeze as the sword is raised. He closes his eyes and waits for the end.

    He startles at the thunk of the sword impaling the ground mere whispers from his kneeling body.

    "I hereby banish you," comes Arthur's voice, only it is cold and foreign and the voice of a King, "do not return to Camelot. Ever."

    Arthur banishes Merlin from Camelot. Gwaine goes with him and they carve out a little piece of the world, just for themselves.

    Is it enough?

    Summary

    Merlin has gotten on Arthur's last nerve. Why is that boy always at the tavern when Arthur needs him? So, this time, Arthur decides to go to the tavern to reprimand his useless servant. Only, Merlin isn't at the tavern. And for some reason, the bartender has never heard of him and Gwaine thinks Arthur is crazy for suggesting that Merlin drinks all the time. Arthur is so confused and pissed that no one can tell him where his servant is. Arthur runs to Gaius' chambers to yell at him for lying and sees Merlin on the brink of death. This changes his whole perspective and chaos ensues from there, leading to some realizations.

    Summary

    To some, Lady Vivian is just a memory, a brief presence during a long-ago diplomatic visit that brought an impressive chain of misunderstanding and heartbreak; one could even say it was funny to see her so besotted with the prince, spouting saccharine declarations even as she left for good. After all, she was rude, spoiled, impossible to please, and a foreigner to boot. Not their kingdom, not their problem.

    But back home, the fact that only one half of the enchantment was undone isn't funny at all, and now that Merlin's magic is out in the open, a renewed alliance might hinge on his ability to break it.

    Summary

    There are consequences to having every statue in the citadel ready at Merlin's command.
    Not all of them are very taxing at all. In fact, he could definitely get used to it.

    Summary

    “Arthur was dreaming.

    He must be. It was the only explanation for the crushing weight of reality that was pressing on his lungs and turning his veins into ribbons of molten fire. The impossibility of the situation made certain that his mind was under some sort of cruel facade.

    Because Merlin was dying. Dying… and Arthur could do nothing.”

    OR: Arthur has a nightmare, and is desperate for some comfort.

    This was basically the basis for the fic I am currently writing, so parts of this (or the entire thing) may make another appearance later! Think of this as a taster fic!

    Enjoy :)
