Beautiful cover made by FangirlLikeYouMeanIt! :D When Uther Pendragon finally tracks down the rogue dragonlord to Ealdor he finds the man with a wife and child. The king feels no guilt when he enters the couple's home, killing both Balinor and Hunith as they try desperately to protect their son. But, instead of having the child meet the same fate Uther decides to keep the young dragonlord as a form of token. A spoil of war. So, once he returns he locks the boy away somewhere deep in Camelot's dungeons. Merlin remains there for years, alone and afraid until one day a young prince finds him.

Merthur AU (Still set in the same time period) After the Great Purge, led by Uther Pendragon, magic has become outlawed in the Kingdom of Camelot. The kingdom thrives quietly for a few years, none disturbing the silence. Meanwhile, a betrayed Balinor is seen as a leader within the community of surviving sorcerers and their supporters. The sorcerers create a new home within the borders of Camelot by taking control of an old castle. With their new leader Balinor, the sorcerers are prepared to take down Uther Pendragon and return to their homes. Thus, The Resistance is born. The war between the two wages on for over a decade. Neither of the two powers willing to surrender. This is the time when our tale begins. The time of Merlin Ambrosius, son of Balinor, and Arthur Pendragon, son of Uther. What will happen when the two fall in love? Especially when neither realize they are in love with their greatest enemy. Disclaimer: I do not own Merlin.
