Now that his father is gone, he must take the throne from his uncle and save a kingdom he has always held dear. But saving a kingdom is harder than it seems, and Merlin is running out of time.

It was a normal day in camelot until Merlin received a letter from his mother with urgent news that can change his life forever In a land of myth and a time of magic The destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young boy His name...Merlin But in that land of myth and time of magic Merlins secrets are revealed

Merlin has a secret past. One that he hasn't told anyone. His parents had die saving him when he was just a child. He had to flee his village or else the other villagers would kill him too. If he died, then, his parents had died for nothing, so he ran away. He made a home on the streets in the city of Caerleon. He became a skilled thief and swords fighter. He was having the time of his life stealing things, that was until he had to flee from the kingdom before he was killed. He traveled to Ealdor in the kingdom of Essetir. There, a woman called Hunith took him in and taught him a few things in the medical care. Years later, he becomes the servant of Prince Arthur. Can his secret past stay secret?

Once again, Arthur and the knights make the wonderful decision to go on a hunting trip. To no one's surprise, something is bound to go wrong. They are met with an ambush and a mysterious sorcerer with a pair of magical cuffs. Instead of putting them on Arthur, which is what everyone expected, she decides to give them to Merlin instead. Unbeknownst to all of them, the cuffs are made to control one's magic and bind it to another's command. How will Arthur and the knights react? And what does she want with them? *** Descriptions are not my thing but here you go! Important things to note: - Takes place after season 3 - Uther's alive, but not really useful (kind of went crazy after Morgana's betrayal) - Lancelot's alive!!! I think that's about it. Enjoy! ^^^^ Updated note: The sequel 'Freed' is also posted!

While on a camping trip, Merlin was obviously exhausted as he'd been acting strange all day. As he falls asleep, Gwaine finds a small leather bound journal hidden away in the servants coat, which he soon learns is a journal. He reads a few to himself, then to the Knights. They all soon realize how sad and how seemingly alone Merlin believes he is. They all realize, just how little they know about Merlin. [Hint: The Knights and Arthur learn about Freya!]

When merlin arthur and the knights get captured by morganna. What will happen? What if they find out merlins secret or worse what if morganna tells them what he's done? Uh oh morganna better run cause merlin is pissed off.

*Starts out in the same timeline as Servant Of Two Masters* Merlin and the Knights are out on a trip, when they are suddenly attacked by a group of bandits. Merlin ends up getting hurt and is eventually captured by Morgana. Originally, she plans to use him to kill Arthur. However, what would happen if she were to see his scars? What if she were the one to discover that there's more to Merlin than meets the eye? How will she react when she finds out that Merlin is more that just a servant? ***** So like I said before this starts out with like the first 5 minutes of A Servant of Two Masters. If you have seen the scars type of stories before, this is a little bit like that. The difference is, it's Morgana that sees his scars first, which sparks some interesting conversations. Disclaimer: This is not a Merthur story. There may be some Mergana... Also I do not own any of the characters or setting or stuff like that. Hope you enjoy the story!
