Summary
"Camelot had to be different to suddenly accommodate such a person as Merlin. He could never have existed in Camelot before, and therefore, Camelot changed. There had to be shadows and secrets to keep Merlin safe, mysteries to bring them together, and silences for all the words they never said to each other."
Merlin saves one man from Uther's pyre and never becomes Arthur's servant - instead, the two unlikely friends must defend Camelot and over time learn the truth about magic and what happened before the Purge. Will magic in Camelot gain two powerful protectors despite the world trying to keep them apart?

Summary
“Merlin was too driven by grief for his other half that he turned back time, but magic like this always has a price. For Merlin to turn back time he had to give up his memories of that time.”
Or, merlin resets time to the day he enters Camelot and meets Arthur and looses his memories, but everyone and I mean EVERYONE remembers the past timeline
Or, the time travel fix it trope but merlin is the only one who doesn’t know about the past lifetime.
(Ignore that Chapter 4 is actually Chapter 3, i’ll fix it when I get the chance.)

Summary
The Perilous Lands belong to the Dragonborn family, a most ancient noble family who’ve ruled since the Fisher King was injured. They have been treating the Fisher King’s injury ever since to prevent the infection from spreading onto the land, as the land of Elmet was tied to the ancient and powerful sorcerer.
The Dragonborns are warriors, as even the women of the Royal family are trained in combat.
Princess Muriel is the Dragonborn heir to the throne, and is primarily in charge of protecting Elmet’s borders with Camelot due to the many issues at that border in the past.
One day, however, she leads her Knights across the border to help a group of outnumbered Camelotian Knights against a group of bandits who turn out to be human traffickers.
It is like this that she meets Crown Prince Arthur of Camelot. -

Summary
It's been 2 weeks since Merlin became Arthur's manservant, since Arthur discovered his nature and it's- it's going greeeat.
Or about as well as expected for the son of a tyrannical king taught to hate and fear magic and a peasant who wields said magic and stands at the mercy of said son...
A man who chose clemency despite harsh life lessons, despite his own arrogance and ignorance.
How interesting.

Summary
Fit Bloke yanks the books from his hands harshly, unbalancing Merlin, making him have to stop himself from face planting by bracing a hand on the floor. Giving him a disgusted look, Fit Bloke sneers, “Get up, you look ridiculous,” before briskly walking away in the opposite direction, his leg connecting with Merlin’s shoulder and knocking him over again.
“Prat,” Merlin says, collecting himself and getting up. Fit Bloke may be a prat, and an arse, but the view of his bum when he strutted away wasn’t bad at all. In fact, it was a very peachy bum, probably from footie....
