Lol look at this! This series of continuing disasters actually led to Geraint's eyes opening completely accidentally!

Poor Romford though; he lost a lot by drinking that potion

Oh god lol not the tragic male lovers!

Lol Uther's Ok With Gay purely for political reasons; just not the usual ones!

All's well that ends well, I guess

No surprise that everyone's taking Merlin's side. Arthur's done good work, yes, but, so has Merlin in his own way.

Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, I would likely make the same decision if I were Hector. It's pragmatic

That is the one downside I suppose. Merlin would NEVER forgive them for it.

Wow. Hector was literally one step from doing it if Arthur hadn't figured him out.

Oof. Lol without merlin's luck they really do mess up

Literally even the youngest and most innocent knight could see what Uther couldn't. Oof.

Impressive. Wonder if they'll all figure it out before the end?

Eh. I can respect this father, and his son-though his son does seem more vengeful than him

Hmm. Now's when things get interesting, Arthur was trying so hard to... what's a polite way of saying brainwash? The other knights into following his own opinion without them realizing. But now...

Oh dear. Welp, that’s what concussions do to you. Pour Kay

Woop. There it is.

Lol it’s Caradoc’s worst nightmare come to life! Mine too tho

A fear manifestation spell. Ooh, devastating!

Lol I can’t I’m good faith say I wouldn’t react the same at the thought of giant spiders

Love is the spark that ignites the greatest wars, and drives men to do impossible things. Love is the world’s most powerful motivator. Unfortunately, love is also blind-and likes making its victims blind AND dumb in turn

Welp. Kay may be injured by those bandits, but he’ll at least recover. That Pembroke boy? He’s gonna be PemBROKEN soon

Ooh, now Arthur’s jealous!

Lol now they all want him! I love it

Should’ve gone to Morgana. I knew it.

Impressive. Canon Merlin would’ve never stood up to Morgana until shit already hit the fan, and by that point he’d fucked up so bad she had already become what he was trying to prevent her from becoming

Lol Arthur has a Prat Score too?

Even though I understand his intent, it’s still terrifying to see how good Arthur is at manipulation. I can’t help but be reminded of that one Steven Universe line from Jasper, about gaining allies who would do anything for you by supporting them when they’re at their lowest

HE KNOWS! Oh that’s too much

How ironic. Merlin didn’t even use magic that time, but Hector caught on anyway!

Is Merlin… jealous? Oh, that’s too good

Oh I’d definitely go to Morgana. Also, it makes sense that all this court intrigue happened, unfortunately

Well. Merlin’s definitely lucky, I’ll day that much. But luck can also be artificial, and it looks like Arthur’s trying his hand at crafting some

Lol making them fight Merlin is just cruel of Arthur

When I read about the despair burning out of the horses eyes, I felt like Merlin had just rescued Artax, and I literally burst into tears.

Brilliant and well done! You made me laugh, you made me cry (just a little...). Thank you!

I'm VERY impressed with your writing skills! I didn't leave any comments after the previous chapters but they are all brilliant -You've got me laughing till tears! And you've captured their personalities just right! I'm not wanting Arthur and Merlin to have a romantic relationship, but love how you show they are so attuned to each other.

It's been a minute since I read this story but I just wanted to come back and say thank you for sharing it! I really enjoyed reading it the first time around and I'll definitely try to leave a more indepth review next time I read it. :o)

A gorgeous ending to a majestic story! Thank you so much for sharing this and making my past three days wonderful 333
