    Summary

    After Merlin loses a patient, he finds that he can't stop himself from blaming Arthur for not doing enough to protect the druids. Unfortunately, the situation only worstens as Arthur's inaction and an innocent death starts off a chain of events that threatens not only Camelot, but all of Albion.

    Canon up until "With All My Heart;" story begins approximately a week after they return to Camelot at the end of the episode.

    * * *

    “Guinevere, I’m sorry, but this is important. If someone’s killing people in Camelot, I have to know who’s to blame—”

    “Then look in the bloody mirror!” For a moment, Merlin didn’t realize that he’d spoken aloud; he barely recognized his own voice, vicious in a way that Merlin had never allowed himself to sound in Arthur’s presence.

    Summary

    “Where did you learn to do that?” Gwaine asked, following Merlin up the bank.
     
    “This is how normal people fish,” Merlin replied dryly. “Not trying to stab them with swords.”

    “This is a knife,” Gwaine retorted, sounding every bit as sulky as he felt.

    “Still, you didn’t catch a fish.”

     
    ------------------------------------------------------

    Gwaine saves a young Merlin from a beating and ends up with a new little brother to take care of on his travels.

    Or, what would Merlin be like if he had Gwaine influencing him over his formative years?

    Summary

    (Camelot as we know and love, in a world where everyone is born with wings, save the rare 'Wingless'. )
    Merlin is a supposed-Wingless, manservant to King Arthur, post-magic ban repeal. Merlin is fine, he promises, but he deeply misjudges how tenuous his grasp on nomalcy is. When visiting nobles take their hate for the Wingless too far, it's finally time for Merlin to let Arthur into yet another secret. And maybe the King can finally help him heal from the past.

    Summary

    When Arthur blows the horn of Cathbdhah for the second time, the horn doesn’t just send Uther to the other world. It sends Arthur away as well – to a world where Ygraine never died, the Great Purge never happened, and magic lives freely at court. As do those who practice it.

    Summary

    It wasn't all that unusual for people to hide their daemons; Merlin, however, seems to be taking it a little far.
