Summary
Arthur, Merlin, and the Knights of the Round Table must travel to the Isle of Mona, invited by the eccentric royal family to help teach Arthur about governing a kingdom where magic is a free practice. As a condition of Morgana's surrender the ban was lifted in Camelot and Arthur asked Merlin to learn magic so he had someone he could trust to help him govern. Merlin has been playing the struggling apprentice for months, learning everything he can and pretending not to already know it all.
However, when they land in Mona, all the magic users recognize Emrys and treat him as such. Merlin is forced to confess all to his king and the knights, who agree that until the treaty is signed and they return home, they are going to have to act as if this is all normal. Cue shenanigans, tournaments, worshipers, and more secrets than Arthur knows how to deal with.
The story is a slow burn and a lot is going on, Merlin is polyamorous and Arthur decides he can live with that. This is my first long story, I will try to update often, let me know how I am doing! -

Summary
Gwaine knew Merlin meant well, so, Gwaine left him to his secrecy.
That didn’t mean he wasn’t curious, of course. That he didn’t watch Merlin closely when he favored one side over another or came in with a bandaged wrist and an absurd story of tripping over a barrel. Gwaine couldn’t deny that the desire for answers didn’t chew at his fingers every time they fell in together, tracing over bumps or patches of rough skin that felt uncomfortably similar to scar tissue; even if, as promised, he never looked to confirm it.
Gwaine tries to put it out of his mind as much as he reasonably can. But between the two of them, Merlin had always been the better liar.
And that’s exactly what worries him.
In which Gwaine makes a lot of discoveries, just in an odd order.

Summary
“How can one man be so stupid!”
If this sentence didn´t refer to Arthur Pendragon, then it would most likely describe his father.
And in this context –
Well let´s just say there was only one person who would talk this ill about the king and get away with it without being put in the stocks.Alternatively:
Uther decided that Arthur needs a manservant who can actually protect him. So obviously he lets the servants fight one another to determine who deserved the honor.
They have one month to prepare, but Arthur just can´t find a moment to ask Merlin to participate.
Until he sees Merlin´s strongest opponent and decides it´s probably better if he doesn´t.
Like that would stop Merlin. :3Series

Summary
In which Uther finally sees the true nature of Merlin and Arthur's relationship and is every bit the protective dad he could have been.
(fair bit of warning: Uther is so good in this one that he's just OOC)

Summary
There is a god loose in Camelot.
At least, according to the Druids. The longer that Arthur extends his welcome to the strange folk of the forest, the more that come into Camelot to do business. And with the swell of Druids comes a swell of whispers.
“They worship a god called Emrys,” Elyan reports to the Round Table one day. “They believe him to be in the city, and are treating Camelot as a sort of pilgrimage site.”

Summary
“Mr. Pendragon is out of surgery,” the doctor said, and Merlin couldn’t help but be a little relieved. "However, he’s being quite…belligerent. I must remind you, he has taken nitrous oxide and is not exactly in control right now.”
“And?”
“Well,” the doctor’s lower lip twitched. “He’s demanding that we return his teeth to him immediately so that he can wear them like a necklace. Or he’ll have us beheaded.”
