Remember, please be kind and gentle to our codemonkeys by prompting correctly.  (see above Planet of Apes reference? We do not want that on our hands. ;-)  ):

Monsters and Magicians | Merlin, Merlin/Arthur, the court magician

[chibifukurou]

When Merlin first came to Camelot he was afraid of what he would become. He saw the monsters that lived in Camelot and swore he would not become one. He often thought he would die to keep that oath. He never did, instead he thrived, despite the monsters. He became Arthur's manservant. A trusted friend to the crown prince. It was their destiny to change Camelot. At least that was what the dragon said.

In time Arthur became the only thing in his life that mattered. He risked discovery with a second thought. He killed his own kind. He did everything he swore he wouldn't do, when he was a young country boy. Still the fear of death remained, stronger than ever. He would rather be burned alive than risk Arthur.

That fear ended upon Uther's death. When the mourning period ended Arthur came to him. He offered him a position as the court magician. He accepted. This was the chance he'd dreamed of. He could protect Arthur without lying now. Only he couldn't. Arthur was king, his hands had to be kept clean of Uther's taint. It was Merlin who killed the magicians now. At his hands Morgana and Mordred met their end. Arthur mourned their death and cursed their murderer. Merlin didn't care. He was a monster of Camelot now. Nothing would stop him from preserving his King, nothing.
