    Summary

    220 B.C.E: Laurent fights in his father's army, but watches his brother die at the hands of Damianos, the gladiator son & heir of Akeilos. Instead of taking his place as Emperor, Laurent finds himself pitted against his uncle's Court, where the rules change every day & none of them are in his favor. In a bid to survive, Laurent becomes friends with the one boy he thinks will be able to survive his uncle (even if the age gap makes conversations repetitive at times).

    212 B.C.E.: A grieving Damianos charges into battle for the final time, after saying goodbye to the two people he'd thought were untouchable.

    2020: Nicaise is an undergraduate paleoanthropology student. He's in Italy with classmates, experts & his professors as they continue the decades-long search for the final resting place of the Lost King of Akeilos.The only thing more valuable than the Lost King's final resting place is an answer to the millennia-old mystery: where did the Forgotten Son of Vere go? While excavating, Nicaise falls through a ceiling into a burial tomb. But as Nicaise works and studies to discover more about these men, their lives and their deaths, he begins to realize a broken bone might be the least of his issues...

    Summary

    “They also point to the fact that the houses you film in look eerily similar. You’re both very attractive. It would only make sense.”

    Laurent’s smile drops. “I’m an academic. I don’t roll around with brutish Neanderthals.” He forces the innocence back onto his face. “You were asking about my upcoming novel?”

    AKA

    Being stuck together during quarantine makes it difficult to keep a relationship under wraps. Laurent and Damen try their best.

    Summary

    There were several long moments of tense silence as the gravity of the situation sunk in. Merlin had used magic, and Arthur had been awake. Arthur had seen.

    When Arthur finds out Merlin has magic, at first, he’s angry, then he feels betrayed, then torn—ultimately he doesn’t know what, exactly, to do with his manservant. Of course, he could never hurt Merlin, could he?

    Set in the middle of season 2 just before The Nightmare Begins, Arthur learns about Merlin's magic. This story shows several select episodes, as well as our own scenes following the canon narrative from the perspective of Arthur knowing about Merlin’s magic.
