The King finds training his latest knights harder than anticipated.

When Arthur Pendragon returns in the 20th century he does not rise from Lake Avalon as the prophets wrote. He is born in Rome as an infant with no memories of his life in Camelot. And there's something very wrong with him. Damien / Merlin fusion. (Merthur with other minor pairings)

[Post-canon]. [Merthur]. Lorsqu'Arthur se réveille à Avalon, deux mille ans ont passés. Complètement perdu, il tente de s'adapter à ce nouveau monde tout en cherchant Merlin, persuadé qu'il est toujours en vie. Mais lorsqu'il parvient à le retrouver, Merlin a changé et le fuit. C'est alors au tour d'Arthur de se battre pour l'aider et le faire redevenir celui qu'il était avant.

In "The Disir," (Season 5), Arthur is challenged to be merciful towards the Old Religion or else condemn young Mordred to death. Arthur is torn and asks Merlin's opinion. Merlin, plagued by prophetic visions of Mordred killing Arthur, advises him to maintain the ban. That was the wrong choice, Merlin discovers. In this version, he makes the right choice. Oneshot

When he and Arthur are kidnapped during a hunting trip, Merlin learns two things about their captors. First off, their problem is not with Uther or Arthur; it is with nobility period, and they want all the heirs to whatever title. Second off, they do not know which one of the two is Prince Arthur. Rated T for torture. Eventual Magic Reveal

7-year-old Prince Arthur Pendragon is dying of an illness not even a court physician can treat. Meanwhile, outside of the castle walls, a small raven-haired boy is about to change both of their lives. (Book 1. Complete.)

The ancient prophecies foretold of The Once and Future King who would unite Britain and bring forth a Golden Age of peace and prosperity. But the future is not set in stone, and the ancient prophecies did not foretell of The Queen who would stand beside him, nor of Emrys, a powerful warlock, who would help lead them both as all three attempt to fulfill their destinies.

Ages have gone by since Arthur's passing, and centuries of waiting have taken their toll on Merlin. Arthur told him: "Don't ever change." When Merlin experiences his past in a way he did not expect, will he live up to his promise?

When Merlin loses control of his magic, leaving feels like the only option left open to him. But running away had never been a solution, not when Arthur's life is in danger.

It was bad enough that Merlin woke up in a field out of town missing months' worth of his memories, but it was worse coming back to find his best friend couldn't stand him anymore and no one knew why. Reconciling with Arthur would be easier if things were simple, but things in his life rarely are. Regaining his memories only makes things more difficult - and more dangerous.

One-shot to A Lesson in Vengeance(5.7). Arthur's reaction to the accusation against Merlin.

Merlin had waited...and waited. And waited. He had waited so long, he was absolutely positive Arthur was never going to return. Until...he does. And what happens afterwards are surprises to them both. This is my first AU! An Arthur returns story. Not Merthur like at first, but gradually. Smut and Fluff(yay!) Angst(but not all the time!) And hopefully fun! Rated M for a later scene.

"¿Se puede juzgar a un hombre por la forma en que ha nacido?" En esta historia este es el primer planteamiento y el segundo es ¿Quién es el verdadero traidor, él que se negó hablar o aquel que jamás dio la oportunidad?. Es un poco ambiguo, pero espero que alguien pueda darle una oportunidad. No soy dueña de los personajes de Merlín es la BBC, aunque la historia es mía.

Camelot has a new King and it's past time for changes to be made. Some things, however, will always stay the same.

"I needed to meet the great sorceress who would unite the land of Albion with Arthur Pendragon at her side!" the dragon said as if it were obvious. "How small and feminine you are for such a great destiny." (A First person POV, slow burn, sexual tension feast, long!fic. Some rewritten episodes, some original plot.)

Merlin never knew much about his father. What was his life like before the Purge? When Merlin asked him what he would do if he had a son living in Camelot he said he didn't have a son. He never did say any thing about a daughter. Why did Balinor agree to help Uther with his clear hate of magic. What if Uther captured his family. Uther thought they were all dead. But they weren't.

Arthur faces the greatest challenge of his life when Morgana leads a Saxon army against his Kingdom. Only Merlin can help him but he has lost his magic. Merlin soon finds out that the price for restoring his magic is to sacrifice his youth. (It is set in episode 12 of the last season and provides an alternative outcome)

"This land holds the same amount of magic as is did a thousand years ago. One fifth is drawn upon by humans who have learned to channel it. Two fifths are used by magical births—enchantresses, warlocks, dragons—you name it. The final two fifths are split between Albion—the land—and the gods. That is the usual split." DISCONTINUED

Mergana and Armor versions in different settings, taken from movies, books etc.

In which Merlin is the punk who keeps breaking into Arthur's flat to pet his cat, Arthur is the cop who is unsuccessful at stopping him, Gwen the cat encourages him and there is a surprising amount of feelings, no matter how much Arthur denied it.

"As long as I was here, I had the power to shape the story. It was a crazy idea, it was something that made me sound as mad as Morgana - that I might be the one in whose hands the fate of all Camelot rested... but well, it was true. Somehow. As long as I was alive and in this world, I could do what I thought best." Alternative episodes for Seasons 4/5, rated T just to be sure.

Finally, Arthur was back. After what seemed an eternity of being alone, Merlin finally heard his Arthur's voice. But it's just not what he pictured. It was much worse; much more painful. Reincarnation fic.

"I am the rightful King of Bellisa." Merlin told Arthur who sat there in silence for a moment before speaking, "I don't understand." Merlin took a deep breath before speaking again, "When I was 16 the kingdom was attacked. It was at night so no one expected anything to happen, we were completely unprepared. Both my parents fought hard and well but they were killed.

Merlin was a young swimmer hoping to one day swim for his country at the Olympics, would it be Rio? Then he was forced to change coach would this ruin his chances. Modern one shot, Background Merlin/Mordred Complete

A brief encounter with a fellow prisoner spikes curiosity in the mind and heart of our favorite (and only) warlock.
