When Uther catches Arthur in bed with Lady Vivian, he is horrified and humiliated by Arthur's behaviour. There is only one person to blame for this whole mess. Merlin. Uther orders Arthur to use Merlin as his bedwarmer, to satisfy his son enough that he won't try to get into another lady's skirts until Uther has married him off properly. Merlin and Arthur are horrified.

Merlin Emrys has been waiting thirteen hundred years for this moment to arrive. Can he fulfil the destiny that is required of him? Will Harry learn to trust this mysterious stranger? The fate of the Old Religion and the entire wizarding world depends entirely on them. AU for the last part of Deathly Hallows. Set after Series 4 but written before Series 5. REVISED 08/01/14

After a terrible accident, Merlin is left with no memory of his time in Camelot. Separated from Arthur and all who could tell him who he is, Merlin tries to piece together his life and his loyalties. But loyalties can be influenced; lives can take very different paths to the ones they were destined for. And a lost sorcerer is a very powerful and useful weapon to have.

AU. As a convoy of warriors arrive in Camelot; requesting free reign to continue to hunt a terrible beast, secrets will be revealed in the most shocking of ways. They say that the beast came to Camelot for a reason. And why is Merlin acting so nervous?

After something terrible happens, Arthur, Gwen, Gwaine, and Lancelot take their turns in protecting their protector, watching over their watcher. Merlin's the one in trouble, now, and it's up to them to save him.
