Or, Merlin saves Arthur from his fate at Camlann. Under any other circumstance he might ask for the rest of the week off. Unfortunately for him, it seems like an arrow in the back will have to do.

Summary
Arthur didn’t much like dying. It was rather painful, and unpleasant, and he didn’t have the energy to move his leg to get the uncomfortable crick out of his knee.
The problem was, it kept happening. Again, and again, and again.

Summary
Months after Arthur learns the truth about Merlin’s magic, their bond deepens in quiet, sacred ways.
In the stillness of shared nights, something begins to change—Merlin cries golden tears at the height of intimacy, unaware of the magic spilling from him.
Arthur says nothing, holding the silence like a vow, until the phenomenon becomes impossible to ignore.
A story of devotion, transformation, and the alchemy of being truly seen.

Summary
For a split second that lasts eons, Arthur exists in that horribly weightless space before gravity conquers, and then he's falling. Distantly, he hears Merlin cry out his name in panic, and then he’s bracing himself for impact.
An impact that never comes.
Silently hoping, begging, for anything but what he knows he’s about to see, Arthur turns his head to look.
And sees Merlin, hand outstretched, and eyes ablaze with gold.
***
Faced with the revelation of Merlin's secret and a sudden internal war between duty and sentiment, Arthur must make a decision that will affect both of their fates. And when Merlin is gravely injured, the time to make that decision rapidly dwindles. Arthur must quickly choose what matters most: the demands of the law, or those of his heart.
