Merlin had no idea whether or not it was a good idea but they had run from Camelot and was heading towards Morgause's castle. Morgana's magic had become dangerously out of control and in trying to protect her, Merlin had revealed his own magic to her. He had left her in her chambers to get her to calm down and get used to the new information that she had just found out. She had come to the physician's chambers later asking for a sleeping draft.

When he dropped it off, she had asked him why he had kept it a secret from her. He told her that he was told not to and he was scared at what she would do as she was new to hers. She accepted his explanation after a while before saying that it was too dangerous for her in Camelot. She was the one to suggest going to Morgause. Merlin was still unsure about her.

Morgause was happy to see Morgana but not so much to see Merlin. She told him to leave straight away. Morgana told her that either it was both of them or they would go to find another teacher. Merlin just felt awkward being there, like he was intruding. He watched them get closer and closer and Merlin just couldn't help but feel like an outsider. He attempted to leave one night. Morgause encouraged him, telling him that he should have done it earlier. Morgana stopped him before he could. She argued that she couldn't do it without him by her side.

It had now been a few years since they left Camelot and they had returned. Uther had died and they had returned so that they could guide Arthur to get the changes in magic that they all desired. Merlin and Morgana were welcomed back with opened arms but Morgause was given a more frosty reception. Morgana once again argued that it was either all of them or none of them. Merlin just nodded when Arthur looked at him. They accepted them all in and they became a formidable team. No one would think about touching Camelot with them three about.
