Summary
When Merlin is a child, he is taken from Hunith's loving arms to Cenred's unforgiving kingdom. Raised to be Cenred's soldier, Merlin draws the line at killing recklessly and must escape - finding himself in Camelot, trying to appear as inconspicuous as possible.
Of course, this doesn't work out, as he quickly runs into Arthur, the young king of Camelot. Though Arthur is wary, he is intrigued by Merlin, and follows his heart to the warlock... and into some serious trouble.
OR: Merlin is hurt, but he finds Arthur and falls in love, and that almost fixes everything.
