If you enjoyed "Mother Hen" but wanted a whump version, then here's the two-parter. One part is in Merlin's delirious POV, the other is in Arthur's.
Do not read this one or the next if you dislike whump. Don't say that I didn't warn you.
Warning, warning: double angst, triple angst, all the angst! It's dark.
Disclaimer: If I owned Merlin, then I'll eat Buckbeak.
Prompt: From ImpalaToDream81: Oh my god, a whump version of mother hen would be perfect.

Let's Go On An Adventure
The clanging of swords, the screams of dying men. Merlin briefly perked back to life before slumping again in defeat.
...
Someone was removing him from the chains with incredible gentleness. God, my body hurts. Merlin slipped back into unconsciousness.
...
Someone was gently carrying him out of the warlord's castle. Merlin tried to see his saviour, but it was too dark, too dark.
...
Someone was wetting his forehead with a cloth. Am I on fire? It's so hot!
...
"Come on, Merlin, stay with me!" Merlin tried to answer.
...
"Merlin, please!"
...
"Arthu'?" The aforementioned haggard man looked up, hollow-eyed.
Um...
