This all changed one dreadful night as the bells of war sang there song. There was a betrayal in the court that forced my family and I to run for our lives. My little sister Ethayon, and my Mother, Queen Hunith, that fled with me, while my father, King Balinor stayed to fight for the lives of our people. I ended up in Camelot so I could learn to control my powers under my Uncle Gaius' tutelage, as my magic grows more and more each day. It was there that I met Arthur and his knights. It was just the beginning of what destiny had in store for me. This is my story.

So we meet again... (a merthur au)
[COMPLETE: 25/25✅] Do you ever feel such a deep connection to a complete stranger that you feel as though you know them from somewhere else, from a long time ago? Without the memories of when he was called "The Once and Future King", Arthur-the-office-worker felt without purpose until a boy named Emrys walked into his life, and he would never be the same. Maybe being without a true destiny has its perks. Tagged for language and descriptions of dark subject matter that readers may find disturbing. You have been warned.Complete
