In his chamber Arthur looks out of the window. Gwen stands behind him kissing his neck. "Arthur, what is wrong?" Arthur turns towards her and takes her in his arms. "Nothing. It is nothing." He tries a smile. "Arthur you are such a bad liar." Now he smiles. "I'm sorry. I just don't want to worry you. I'm worried enough. This drought.." He shakes his head. Gwen smiles and kisses him. "Arthur, I'm as worried as you. But that is not all. Am I wright?" Arthur shakes his head again. "No, this isn't all. I have heard Mordred today. He talked to Merlin in his mind. Thanks to my crystal I could hear them. He was here. Mordred was in Camelot. He was so close and we didn't catched him." He sighs. "Gwen, he was here." Gwen kisses him again. "Arthur. Maybe he was here. But he didn't enchanted everything or killed somebody. Maybe he isn't that powerful that we thought he is. He fears you and your men. That's why you didn't catched him." Arthur nods. "I hope you are right. I beg you are right." He kisses her. "We have to go. They are waiting for us at the table round." And speaking this words, it knocks. Merlin enters the room. He looks up to his king and his queen. "My Lord, My Lady, they are waiting for you in the throne room." Arthur nods and takes Gwen's hand. Both make a step out of the room into the corridor. Merlin follows them.
"Arthur, please I need to talk to you." Arthur pauses and looks at Gwen. She smiles and nods towards him. "I'll go. See you there." She turns around and leaves in direction of the throne room.
Arthur turns towards Merlin. "Merlin, come on, walk by my side. We need to hurry." Merlin makes a step forward. Side by side they pass the corridor. "Merlin, what is it?" Merlin hesitates before he whispers: "Arthur, I'm worried. Mordred, he was here. So close." "Merlin, I'm as worried as you are." "But this isn't all. There was a moment when I felt his powers. He is that powerful, I don't know.. he is that powerful, it frightens me. I felt it deep inside me." He shakes his head. "And why was he here? What was the reason for this?" Arthur pauses. "Merlin, maybe he is powerful. But he won't destroy Camelot with his hatred. His hatred will never win against our love. But in one thing you are right. I don't know what he wanted in Camelot."
Merlin shakes his head again. "But you have heard him. You have heard his threats!" "Merlin, I'll do everything to protect Camelot and my people. We will double the guards. We will do whatever is necessary, but he won't win. And he won't put us in fear and terror. This is exactly what he wants. We won't allow that fear takes our hearts." Suddenly he smiles instinctive. "Merlin, do you remember? Look what we've got. You and me. This have been exactly your words." He grins and instinctive Merlin smiles back. Arthur puts his hand on his shoulder. "Let's go. We should hurry." He nods towards his friend. Together they go on side by side towards the throne room.
