As Merlin and Gwen enter the chamber of Gaius, they find the physician helpless. Together with Sir Galahad they undressed the armour of their king. Stunned they are looking down to the old scar. It should be closed and look pale.. but instead, it is open again and some blood seeps out of it. It isn't much, but enough to worry the physician. He looks up to Merlin: "It is his old wound. I don't know what happened. I don't know.."
Merlin pushes his old friend aside. He looks down to his king. He is pale and still fainted. The young sorcerer puts his hand on Arthur's wound. There is something. He feels something pulsing! Scared he takes his hand off. Horrified he looks up to his friends who surround him: "It is the broken sword piece. It is still in his body. I thought the Lady of Avalon had removed it. But it seems, she just enchanted it." Stunned he looks down to Arthur: "I don't know, how I can help him. However I'm powerless. We have to bring him once more to the isle in the lake of Avalon. But he is already fainted, we will never make it in time!"
Gwen shouts: "Merlin, do something! You can't let him die! Merlin!" Despaired she looks down to his husband, she fights with his tears. She sobs: "He already made it. Why everything is going to be unmade?" Merlin listens: "Gwen, what was that?" Gwen shakes his head: "He was healthy. Why.." Merlin shouts at her: "Gwen! What have you said before! I need your exact words!" Wondering she repeats: "I have told, that he already made it. And that now everything will be unmade!"
Merlin takes a deep breath and looks down to his king, who gets weaker and weaker: "I damn fool. It is the sword! It is Mordred's sword! And I have brought it to Camelot!" His friends understand nothing. In tears Merlin explains: "The great dragon has told me once: What is made, can't be unmade! A sword, forged in the dreagon's breath can't be destroyed!" But his friends a still looking sceptically. "Don't you understand? That piece of the sword what is in Arthur's breast, it is a part of Mordred's sword. This should be impossible! And now that the sword is here, the sword and the missing piece try to reunite! The piece in Arthur's breast tries to get out of Arthur. It is the ancient magic in it, what came back to life as I brought Mordred's sword with me! The Lady of Avalon, she neutralised it with her enchantment. But by bringing the sword close to Arthur, the ancient magic of the sword and of the piece in his breast is grown back!"
Stunned Gaius, Gwen and Sir Galahad look at Merlin. He sobs: "I damn fool. That sword, we have to bring it away. As far and as fast as possible! We have to bring it somewhere, where it disappears forever." He looks at Gwen and at Sir Galahad: "Gwen, you have to fetch that sword out of the royal treasury. And you? Sir Galahad prepare your horse! You have to carry it away. As fast as you can! This is Arthur's only chance!" Gwen dries her tears and hurries out of the room. Sir Galahad hesitates: "Where do I have to go that fast? I'm not able to carry it away far enough in time! Look at him!" Merlin sighs: "You are right." He pauses: "Freya! You havbe to bring it to Freya!" The knight shakes his head: "Where?"
Merlin makes a step closer to Sir Galahad: "Do you know the lake, where the brother of our queen is buried?" The knight nods: "Yes, I have been there. I accompanied our queen sometimes." Merlin faces him strictly: "Take the sword and go there! As fast as you can! If you reach the lake, take the sword and throw it into the water! Do you understand that? It is important!" Sir Galahad nods still sceptically. Merlin puts his hand on his shoulder: "You have to hurry. Ride as fast as you can, don't look back! Trust me!" The knight looks at his king, than at Merlin and leaves the room.
