Summary
Merlin Emrys and Arthur Pendragon had been each other's worlds for years when tragedy strikes and Merlin dies from lung cancer. Left alone and grieving, Arthur feels like nothing will ever be the same again, no matter how hard he tries to make the world right again.
Then he receives a letter. An impossible letter that can't be there: a letter from Merlin, detailing plans to send Arthur on the trip of a lifetime around the world Merlin once explored as a kid.
As Arthur struggles through the heartbreak of losing everything dear to him, he learns things he didn't even realise he didn't know. There's scary amounts of responsibility, a lot of drinking, helping (and being helped by) people he had never even met before, as well as learning along the way that maybe life hadn't been as smooth as he thought it had, and most importantly, what it means to be himself.
And soon it becomes clear that although this is the end of an era, it may just be the start of something wonderful.
