Hey guys this is chapter 6 for you guys! Thank you so much for all the follows and favorites it really makes my day to see you guys enjoying my story! Don't forget if you guys have any questions about my story or the schedule or anything at all to just leave a review and I will try my best to answer them. This chapter is actually dedicated to a YouTube video that I saw there name is Camelot836 and there video is called Merlin Golden Age AU part 1 I will be using the last part of this video where Arthur is speaking to the round table. It will not be the same but the same concept. So Enjoy!

Thoughts raced through my head of what Arthur was going to say in front of the round table as I ran to catch up to him, but he had already disappeared behind closed doors, so I used the servants door. I could here muffled voices through the door as I creaked it open, trying to make no sound as Arthur begun to speak.

Third person point of view.

"Alright princess you got us here now what'd you want us for." Gwaine spoke from his place.

Arthur rolled his eyes then begun to speak! He stood up and bellowed for all to hear. "I've called you all here to discuss a matter of great importance. Recently things were revealed to me. Things unforgivable, things I've tried to convince myself that weren't true,for many years. Sorcery."

All the the

knights and lords suddenly stood alert at the word sorcery. Except for Lancelot who was more worried than alert.

"Before my reign my father believed sorcery was an evil that should never be used, a crime even. I fear i may have believed his lies for too long and allowed the treachery of those who practice magic of being executed. But no this day forth all who practice magic will be allowed to practice magic in Camelot just as soon as I make a few changes to the laws." Murmurs broke about the hall, especially from the knights who served under Uther's reign. "But there is another matter that needs to be discussed."

As Arthur continued Merlin's head poked further out of the door in which he stood.

"I have discovered today that there is one man who used magic for good. Stood by our side from the shadows never once asking for thanks. Never thinking once of himself only ever thinking of the good of the people and for the good of Camelot-"

Murmurs broke about the hall once more. Gwen looking cautiously at Gaius while Lancelot stood ready if needed to protect merlin.

And Merlin then came from his hiding spot, though still hiding in the alcoves.

"He's the bravest man I've ever met, though I've never said it before but I'm saying it now and-" Arthur's speech was interrupted by the clearing of a throat. It was Lancelot who nodded his head behind Arthur. Arthur then turned around as well as the other knights and lords and what they saw was Merlin stepping out of the shadows with his head bowed.

"A-and Merlin, is that very man"

The hall then burst into a complete silence, besides the murmurs of slight protest and the murmur if he should be hanged. Whoever said that though went silent as a glare was placed upon them. While, each knight was pondering how this could be, except for Lancelot and Gaius and Gwen who watched proudly in silence.

"It all makes since now! The flying plate, the sudden falling of branches, bandits just dropping their swords. It was all merlin!"Gwaine suddenly broke the silence.

All the knights nodded their heads in agreement with slight chuckles here in there as they realized all the random saves were merlin.

Arthur chuckled slightly before merlin spoke up.

"Your not mad with me then?"

Arthur walked over to merlin and clapped a hand on his shoulder.

"You've saved my life more times then i could ever say! All are lives even i don't think we could be mad even if you didn't have magic."

"Did you mean it."

"mean what?" Arthur asked

"What you said about magic?"

"Every word." Arthur then looked back to knights and began speaking again

"Its time we step out of the shadows." Arthur looked back to merlin."All of us."

"Sire you can't be serious. Clearly this man has enchanted you all!" One of the lords spoke out and Lancelot took that as his cue to stand in front of Merlin.

People began to speak words of agreement as well, all except the knights of round table and especially Arthur who looked ready to kill the man.

"SILENCE" Arthur shouted.

Everybody went quiet.

"That's enough, merlin hasn't enchanted me. He can't even find his own feet most of the time even if he does have magic. Merlin" Arthur gestures to merlin who had managed to get back in front of Lancelot. "Merlin has done more for this kingdom and besides he's to selfless for his own good!"

"Maybe that's just what he wants-" the lord who had spoken was caught off by the sudden appearance of a glowing blue light that floated towards the middle of the table.

Everybody looked to merlin whose eyes had just faded back from gold to blue.

"Extraordinary" someone breathed a word.

"I think that concludes this meeting. I'll announce this to the people come morning. See to it that it's arranged."

Everybody departed after that and all that remained was Arthur, Gwen and Lancelot.

Arthur turned to merlin, only to find Lancelot speaking to him, and Arthur could hear every word.

"You saw how the council reacted, how do you think the people will react?"

"I don't know Lancelot, but there is no way I'm leaving. At least not until I explain myself."

"I'm not going to talk you out of it are I"

"It's never worked before as it."

"Talk you out of what." Arthur decided it was time to announce that he was standing ten feet away.

Both Lancelot and Merlin turned towards Arthur and Gwen who had made her way across to Arthur.

"Uh nothing, nothing at all."

"What's this about you trying to leave then?" Gwen then spoke.

Merlin pointed at Lancelot and Lancelot pointed at merlin it was quite comical from where Arthur and Gwen were standing.

"His idea"they both said in unison.

"Why would you want to leave?" Arthur spoke this time.

Merlin remained pointing at Lancelot as gesturing to ask him.

"Lancelot?" Arthur turned to him, where Lancelot had his head bowed.

"Permission to speak freely"

"You know very well you can Lance"

"I don't think it wise to announce Merlin's place just yet. You saw how lord Manir reacted, how do you think the people will react to the-" Lancelot was cut off by Merlin.

"Lancelot" lancelot turned to merlin and merlin mouthed 'don't'.

"React to 'the' What?"

"Its not my place to tell"

"Lancelot!"merlin practically shouted and Lancelot only shrugged in a 'he's the king' matter.

Both Arthur and Gwen made a face gesturing to press on.

"What does he mean merlin. I assure you whatever you've done you won't be harmed for it."

"Later please" Merlin's face held great pleading and all Arthur could do was feel pity.

"Alright. But after the announcement you will tell me alrigh'."

Merlin only nodded. Arthur made to leave, but was stopped at the sound of Merlin's voice.

"Arthur" Arthur turned around

"Thank you"

Arthur only nodded and merlin was left alone in the hall smiling proudly, but there was a nagging feeling in his brain. Telling him to run.

Suddenly a hoot sounded and vibrated off the walls. Merlin looked over and found a vibrant white snowy owl perched upon the open window sill. The owl flew down and landed upon Merlin's shoulders dropping a piece of cloth from its beak.

'So it was you who took this.' Merlin thought silently to the owl. The owl in return gave a small hoot. Suddenly a hum burst through Merlin's head. He looked to his side completely forgetting about the sword that lay at his side. He muttered a few words and it was uncloaked. He unsheathed and held it up the light. The hum only grew louder. The owl gave another small hoot. Merlin looked to the owl then turned his gaze to the door in which Arthur had left through mere moments ago baring a single thought.

'What's happening to me?'
