   Summary

   After leaving a secret patrol in the Valley of the Fallen Kings, Merlin, Arthur, and the Knights are ambushed by a group of bandits and Merlin is killed. Arthur, devastated, slowly discovers who Merlin really was, that death doesn't have to be final, and that love isn't to be deferred. Merlin/Arthur, with background Gwaine/Percival, Gwen/Lancelot. Super angsty and sad in the beginning, but with a happy ending. Graphic Violence in the first and second chapters sort of, read with caution.
