"James!!!" I shouted. My manservant was late. Again. James was the third servant I've had in a year. James came rushing into the room. He made a quick bow to me.

"I'm sorry, Sire." He said hastily. He put my breakfast on my table and started to clean my room.

"Arthur," My wife Guinevere said sternly, "Stop being so harsh."

"I'm not harsh!" I retorted. "Is it so bad that I am hungry, and this is the fourth day this week he hasn't been on time?" I saw James cringe at this. I looked at him. "James? Come here." He looked up and walked over to me. He respectfully bent his head.

"Yes, Sire?" I took his chin and pulled it up. I took my hand away. He looked at me pleading me to forgive him.

"I'm sorry for treating you meanly. I'm just missing Nathan." Nathan had been my first manservant and my best friend. He had died the year before. James nodded.

"I'm sorry I was late again." He said quietly. All of a sudden there was a knock on my door.

I nodded to James to finish the room. "Come." I said loudly. In came my seventeen-year-old son, and his manservant.

"Good morning, Father." He said very maturely for his age.

"Morning, Durwin." I replied. "Have you eaten yet?"

"Yes. When are we going to go train?" He said as he went over to Gwen to give her a hug. I rolled my eyes.

"Durwin. You can't skip out on lessons, and I have a meeting with some druids," I said annoyed.

"But training is learning! Learning to be a knight!" He cried.

"You aren't going to be a knight for a while, and do you think that all I do is train?" I told him then turned to his servant, "Take him to see lord _" He nodded. Durwin looked at me as he passed.

"Please, Father?" He asked. I sighed.

"Maybe later." I said finally. He grinned and left with his servant.

Merlin's POV

+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+

Today is the day. We are arriving at Camelot to make magic completely free for all. I had brought my knights, daughter, and my manservant. I headed the group with my daughter next to me. We arrived at the castle and were ushered into a small throne room. There were,-who I assumed were, the king and queen sitting on beautiful thrones. I walked down the aisle and knelt. My knights followed suit.

"Rise." The king said. We rose and I looked at him waiting for him to speak. He rose and walked over to me. "King Arthur." He held out his hand. I shook it.

"King Merlin, Thank you for seeing us." I said. He nodded and gestured to behind his throne where a young man, whom I assumed was his manservant, was humbly standing.

"My servant will show you where you can stay while you are here. May I come see you in an hour to talk of why you have come?" He asked.

I nodded. "Of course," I answered. The young servant looked at me expectantly. I nodded and then bowed to the king and followed the servant out of the room. I fell next to Harry, my manservant, who was also one of my best friends. The servant was just ahead of us.
