    Summary

    “I can’t run all over the world with you, my lord, I can’t follow you the way I used to,” Merlin says.
    “It’s alright. We can walk,” Arthur says.
    “Arthur.”
    “Merlin. This is our destiny. You and me and a new golden age. It was foretold, wasn’t it?”
    “People have expectations,” Merlin sighs. “And you meet them. Obviously. Look at you. But I’m not—I’m not what people want from a Merlin of legend.”
    “No, you’re much better groomed.”
    “So that’s a ‘no’ on the Great Beard Experiment of 850?”

     

    (Arthur awakens in the modern era to bring back a Golden Age. He makes himself a media darling and realizes, after everything that can go wrong with that does, that he needs to find Merlin, since Merlin doesn't seem interested in finding him first. He tracks Merlin down, only to learn Merlin was in a car accident and is permanently disabled.)
