Let's Go On An Adventure
"MERLIN!" Arthur didn't know how he made that sound, nor did he know how he knew it was Merlin. When he stopped seeing red, Morgana's blood painted Excalibur a scarlet sheen, and he was by Dragoon's (Merlin's) side.
"Arthu'?" Merlin croaked, his wrinkles fading away.
"It's me," Arthur whispered, grabbing his hands. "It's me."
Merlin grinned. "I always knew that you cared."
Arthur huffed. "What are you talking about, Merlin?"
"You're crying." Merlin laughed painfully. "You're actually crying over me."
Arthur sniffed, feeling the wetness roll down his cheeks. "So I am."
-So much for "No man is worth your tears."
-So yes, Morgana's dead after Arthur killed her in revenge for harming Merlin.
-It was here that it clicked in Arthur's mind that Merlin was a sorcerer because why else did Emrys get stabbed?
