Centuries ago during the age of Camelot Merlin son of Trigon realized he was growing weak with his increasing age and having cut the connection between himself and his father due to his desire to remain a Gray Mage instead of a leader of Hell's armies realized that having defeated a servant of his father and barely surviving that no future generation would be able to defeat any other child of his father's. Knowing this and also knowing that his half sister Gwenddydd, daughter of the his father's right hand Lucifer MorningStar and his mother Elaine Belloc, the daughter of Michael Demiurgos, was often seen talking to his bastard half brother Etrigan, son of Trigon and Lilith Mother of Abominations, he knew he would have to seal himself and his two siblings for at least 1,500 years.
After 500 years of "slumber" Merlin was awoken by a strong surge of magical energy. Leaving his asylum quickly he did not notice that his brother Etrigan had also been awoken and also fled the chamber.
Merlin POV
"I wonder what has caused such a large disturbance in the realm to waken me 1000 years before I was to waken?" Merlin thought aloud as he walked from his personal chamber in the cavern which he had hidden himself and his siblings.
"Who are you and where did you come from?" A young woman wearing all blue asked with a knife to Merlin's throat.
"Have you ever heard of Merlin?" Merlin asked wondering if his legacy had been maintained the way he had hoped.
"Of course the wizard who built up and saved Camelot before being trapped in a tomb by the combined powers of Nimue, Vivienne, and Ystina until such a time comes that Britain has need of your strength. However you got the last laugh as you trapped each of them in their own towers powerless to escape unless you release them." The woman said as Merlin felt a second presence approaching behind him.
"Well my dear I am that man and I felt a surge of power unlike any I have felt since I ended the power of Morgaine le Fey however unlike her I sensed that it was a good power. So could that power be yours and your friend's?" Merlin asked smirking when he saw the young woman shocked he had noticed the man behind him.
"Godric let him be I trust him. My name is Rowena of the Earldom Ravenclaw, my friend that you noticed behind you is Godric Lord of the land of Gryffindor, a little ways off we have our friends Salazar Barron of the Moors Slytherin, and Helga Heiress of the Fen Hufflepuff." The woman now known as Rowena said smiling.
"Good to know now do you know of the surge of power I felt? It seemed to come from 4 sources." Merlin said smiling kindly.
"Perhaps it was myself and my friends Sir. We have all recently gained our magical maturity." Godric said coming around and wrapping an arm around Rowena's waist before pulling her into a kiss.
"That might have been it. Are you the only magicals left?" Merlin asked slightly set off that Rowena was apparently unavailable as he needed female companionship.
"Yes there are old man. Why do you ask are you one of those evil powerless fools who killed my wife who was with child." A man in green said pulling off a cloak making him visible.
"You are Salazar I suppose? Well I am not a powerless fool as you put it I am known as Merlin or at least I had been before I was trapped by the sisters and best friend of Morgaine le Fey." Merlin said smirking at the shocked look on Salazar's face.
"But the stories said that you would return when the world was in need of your power." Salazar said angrily.
"Well are you not in need? What races still remain in the realm if I may learn?" Merlin asked deciding to get down to business.
"Well the Fae have mostly left except one small tribe of Leprechauns and Brownies, the giants have been hunted down almost to extinction by the powerless fools as have the centaurs, trolls, unicorns, dragons, and a number of other groups, the magical humans are being hunted down like cattle, the demons have all fled back to hell except the Cerberus which have been weakened down to pathetic guard dogs with no power." Salazar said angrily.
"And what of the Druids?" Merlin asked worried about his former friend's people.
"They are all gone except one small group that are working for the goblins and another who are working for the dwarves. Also my friend Salazar was incorrect as there is still one group of demons left but they live and remain solely on the island of Azkaban with their King and Master Azkaban." A woman said walking up to the group.
"You must be Helga, now two questions for you. First what are the demons called and secondly what brought you all together?" Merlin asked now interested as if there is a group of demons still about then his father might still have followers.
"Well to answer your questions we don't know the name of the demons as they remain on the island. To answer you other question about what brought us together is the fact that all of us have lost a family member to the non magicals and so we wanted to create a school for the younger magicals to learn how to protect themselves from the non magicals." Rowena said.
"Okay now that you have a goal in mind let us begin the process of starting it. I will put wards around the school and start locating students for your school." Merlin said smiling.
Etrigan POV
"My brother truly is a fool thinking he is the only one to be woken by the power. However unlike him I cannot just sit around I must start bringing together a force to be able to defeat the self righteous bastard that is Merlin so when our father next has a child he will be able to finally take over this world." Etrigan thought as he quickly fled the cavern before Merlin thought to close it and headed to the cavern he knew Merlin had frozen Morgaine, Nimue, Vivienne, Ystina, and Guinevere so when he awoke he would have wives.
Arriving at the cavern on the floating island of Avalon Etrigan smirked at the thought that Merlin might really think that Mage Ice could resist the power of Hell Fire as he began to thaw the five women.
"Etrigan how is it that it is you to free us?" Morgaine asked after waking from her slumber.
"Well my dear Morgaine I do not know if you felt the surges of power that shook the realm but Merlin was woken and did not think I would also so as he left to find the disturbance I fled here to free you so that when my father next sires a child he will have the support he needs to bring father here to conquer. I cannot due to the fact that Merlin is the first borne son and so he is strongest. Sadly I was not able to free his sister due to the fear that Merlin would close the cavern before I could escape." Etrigan said sadly.
"Well Etrigan let us begin our plans for the day of the return of our lord." Ystina said smirking at his look of glee.
Merlin POV A Few Decades Later.
"We did it. Finally we managed to get it done and it's all thanks to you Merlin." Godric said looking out at the newly dedicated Diagon Alley.
"So we have old friend. Hogwarts has been open for a number of years, Salazar has fled from the isles, you and Rowena have two beautiful children, the council of wizards has began to set laws down, Helga is with child, the demons of Azkaban are under the council's control as their lord and the citizens of the island have fled, and most importantly we have separated ourselves fully from the muggles." Merlin said with a sigh before his eyes flew wide.
"What is it my love?" Helga asked concerned.
"Someone has tried to break into my cavern where my sister is also bound. Should she escape then the world will probably not last long as she will awaken my brother before returning to my father." Merlin said shaking before calming down.
"Why then are you calm?" Rowena asked approaching the group holding a little boy and girl in her arms.
"My wards have informed me that the intruder has left and not managed to enter the cavern." Merlin said smiling
A Few Decades Later
"My love our sons are old enough to care for themselves I think it is my time to go like our other friends have." Helga said as she lay on her death bed.
"No my love I cannot lose you so soon after I found you." Merlin said as he fell down onto the ground as he felt his wife's presence leave her body.
"My son it is time for you to go return to your slumber." A beautiful woman said descending from the sky.
"Mother I have not seen you since I was a little child. Why have you come now when I am mourning so?" Merlin said seeing the woman.
"My dear son your grandfather has told me that it will be closer to your end of your sleep that your father will try once again to take over. He promised that if you go quickly he will guarantee your wife's entrance into heaven as well as your other friends." Elaine said as she wrapped her son in a hug.
"But mother I must first rid this world of the evil that still plagues it." Merlin said crying.
"My son if you remain I will also have to remove my power from you leaving you near powerless as is the order of The God of The Covenant." Elaine said sadly.
"Fine mother I will do as you command but do not expect me to become a Light Mage that I have been since I awoke. I will become like I strived to during my earlier life to be a Gray Mage." Merlin said as he stood.
"By doing this your line will be blessed with the power to defeat all non demon based dark wizards." Elaine said as she left.
"Who was that father?" A young man asked walking into the room as Elaine left.
"That my son was my mother. Now I must leave I leave you and your seed charge of House Hufflepuff until such a time as I return." Merlin said as he disappeared.
"Where did father go?" A second young man asked walking into the room.
"Father left for a time but left me charge of Mother's House and according to this paper on the pedestal he leaves you and your seed charge of House Pendragon until he returns." The first brother said.
"Well I do not trust other mages not to kill me to take my lordship so from this day forward I change my name to Dumbledore and I recommend you change your name as well." The second brother said.
"I agree I will hence forth be called Smith." The first brother said.
Etrigan POV
"Well it seems that my brother is too distraught to even notice that I am no longer in the cavern as he has frozen himself again and what is better is he reset the time for himself but not for his sister so come 1900 she will be free." Etrigan said smiling as he looked through a mist at his brother's idiocy.
"Well my friend I never did think him that smart. That is why I kidnapped Rowena and fled his control." Salazar said smirking.
"And how glad I am that you kidnapped me freeing me and my daughter from the love potions Godric and he had us under." Rowena said smiling at her husband.
"Well if it were not for the illusion skills and female prisoners Azkaban has we would not have been able to pull it off." Salazar said smiling at his friend the Lord Azkaban.
"Well the fool believing that I would turn over my allies to his control must be insane. Those lesser demons or as I prefer to call them Dementors still know me as their master first."
"Well Etrigan while I realize you can continue living forever without aging due to who your father is we cannot and the fountain of youth only has one more year until it dries out according to your father so I think it would be best if we all do similar to Merlin and put ourselves into magical coma's for the next thousand years." Morgaine said smiling at Etrigan.
"I agree with you my dear love. While you are asleep I will continue building up our father's army and bringing them here, and having them join the coma. The only thing I worry about is what Merlin's mother said that his seed would be blessed to do." Etrigan said worried.
"Well remember that it was him that blessed my only son with Godric to be able to subdue demons but not kill them. So what you do is when they are subdued either bring them here or send them back to hell to heal until such a time as Trigon has need of their aide." Rowena said smiling evilly.
"True Rowena very true. Now is time for all of you to rest." Etrigan said smiling as they all fell into magical comas.
