Summary
In the months since Arthur became king, he has repealed the ban on magic, appointed Merlin as his Court Sorcerer, and made peace with the Druids. The Golden Age of Albion must surely be at hand—if only he and Merlin could stop arguing long enough to enjoy it.
Or: Merlin and Arthur fall foul of a proximity curse. What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
Merlin accidentally reveals his magic to Arthur. It goes about as well as he can expect. Only Arthur is still furious about the lies between them, and refuses to let Merlin back into his role as manservant. So Merlin requests to be made a knight. If Arthur can't trust him to be a friend, at least Merlin can continue to save his life. Their friendship hangs in the balance, and it is unclear whether they are going to come through on the other side stronger than ever, or broken beyond repair.

Summary
“Truth spell,” Merlin said. “The sorcerer from earlier, the one in the woods. The dust he threw over us.”
“You should go tell the others,” Arthur said.
“I can’t.”
“Why not?”
“I’m under the spell too.”
Arthur raised an eyebrow. “And you’re in the habit of lying?”
“Yes,” Merlin said helplessly.
