i LIKE THIS, IT'S JUST RIGHT. i THINK YOU HAVE CAPTURED WHAT HE WAS THINKING ON THAT FATEFUL NIGHT. VERY WELL DONE.

Great! I like monologues when well done, and this was very well done. You showed Uther's feelings prefectly. I would have liked a bit more Merlin, just because he's awesome, but it still very enjoyable and easy to read. :D
