Merlin's Son: A Tale old as Time • Merthur by merthur102

Freya lives the attack, only just. But when she dies giving birth, Merlin's Son is born just before the Tears of Uther Pendragon, what will Merlin do to protect his child? What will Arthur do, when he finds out? Based of the series, but not completely. Featuring Merthur, Arthur 'not being a stupid prat', Good Morgana, Gwen and Lancelot and a whole lot of cuteness. Here's a snippet from one of the chapters: "I do not want your gold! I want to live without being hunted, without fear. I want magic to be alive again!" He said and Arthur grinned. He didn't even have to think about it. Anything for you, Merls. "Done." --- *Disclaimer* I can't take credit for the cover as I found it on Pinterest, I don't own Merlin either, if I did Merthur would be more than just fanfiction, all rights go to the creators. Thanks for all of the love 🥺 btw this is also on AO3, if it is easier for you to read on there.

The Aftermath (Merlin) by whothis123

*Sequel Out now* Kilgharrah may have told Merlin that nothing he could do would save the Once and Future King, but that doesn't mean he was right. The warlock takes things into his own hands when he revives Arthur at Avalon, but there are consequences for breaking a destiny written before the time of men. Set just after season 5, Arthur slowly comes to grip with his friends' magic as they return back to Camelot, victorious from the battle of Camlan. Merlin tries his best to face his demons alone, but sometimes the constant pain, scars and tournament is not that easily overcome. The warlock faces his biggest trial yet... himself. Revivals of key characters Descriptions of torture Character deaths scars revealed *story started Oct 2020* *story finished 11th Jan 2021* I promise its better than the description, read to find out :)
