Summary
“I'm just a simple farm boy... with a magical friend... I didn't ask for the genocidal ghost kings… and fixing the first draft of destiny."
When Arthur uses the Horn of Cathbhadh to summon Uther's spirit, Will is determined to use this opportunity to change the course of destiny. But he gets more than he has bargained for: a murderous ghost king trying to kill everyone -including other ghosts, yes, intelligence is not a Pendragon trait-, a broken and paranoid friend to fix, an arrogant king to stop from making a grave mistake and two crime partners in the midst of all.

I AM PLANNING TO DELETE THIS STORY, I AM SORRY, TO KNOW MORE PLEASE GO TO CHAPTER 14.
It was unexpected for both of them but once they found each other they knew that Arthur was not coming back. So they decided to go back to them, to Camelot. Maybe this time Merlin could save them, save Arthur. This time he didn't have to do it alone.

Summary
Arthur could see his father glaring down - face red and eyes narrowed as he looked at Merlin with clear distaste.
"Once this over, sorcerer...I’ll burn you."
"You’ve already tried that," Merlin’s voice answered and Arthur had to bite his fist to keep from making any noise. “You need to accept you can’t kill me… Hand me that blanket, please.”
“I’m sure there must be some method… Beheading?”
“No, we tried that.”
“Hanging?”
“I just sort of... Swung there, remember?”
There was another pause.
“I should have made you keep that dragon below the castle so I could feed you to it.”
“Kilgharrah? He won’t eat me, but if you want to torture me than making me listen to his nonsense for an hour might do it.” Merlin said and there was a soft sigh from the other end of the room. “I’m glad you agreed to help me though. Usually I have to do the grunt work of saving Arthur myself.”
“I can’t wait to kill you.”
Or
Uther finds out about Merlin’s magic, but can’t seem to kill him. Merlin is just trying to protect Arthur. They become a begrudgingly effective duo. Arthur doesn't understand why they think he isn't noticing this.

Summary
Throughout the lands, sorcery is persecuted. It has been this way since before anyone can remember differently. Those who those who are caught using magic are persecuted, and when they are caught they are shown no mercy. For magic users, this means a life of hiding and fleeing. For one young warlock in particular, the hurt and loss he’s faced in the run for freedom has taken its toll.
Or
Prince Arthur and his knights are on a quest near Camelots borders when they encounter a party of slavers illegally transporting through Camelot lands. After defeating the slavers and setting most of their “cargo” free, the knights meet a young sorcerer bound by magic chains. He refuses to speak or trust his rescuers, which frustrates Arthur to no end, what with Camelot very publicly legalizing magic years ago.

Summary
It starts with one man. A butcher at the edge of town, discovered dead in his home, half rotted already even though he was seen alive the day before.
Next is a woman, a baker, found in her kitchen. Another man, another woman, and then a groomsman in the castle stables. All of them rotting too soon, and Gaius has judged that the rot began before they died. Merlin is not ashamed to be among those who had to step away and be sick at the news.
Arthur watches the surge of magic, terrible magic, tracing a line through his people straight to his door and his every aspect is grim, furious.

Summary
Merlin's been around for a long time. He's been a lot of places, and he's been a lot of people. He's kept an eye on the world, and as magic hid itself, he kept an eye on both worlds, allowing Magic itself to help guide him where he was needed. A few years ago, something pushed him to return to a name and life in he'd established in Britian's Magical Society, and acquire a teaching position at Hogwarts. Now, the ever famous Harry Potter is about to start attending, and as events unfold, Merlin gets the feeling Harry's story is why he was pushed to teach, not the latest reincarnations of his first life.
