Summary
Morgana looked at him, envy welling in her throat. Arthur had always gotten everything she wanted. The throne, Merlin’s loyalty, a family, Mordred’s faith, a father, the people’s love, and of course, Gwen. Naturally he also had what she had never managed to learn. Forgiveness.
“You can’t forgive me,” she said.
“Why not? We're dead," Arthur replied.
"We won't be forever."

"It will affect the other souls of Avalon," the Sidhe said.
“But you can do it?” Merlin asked. “My immortality for Arthur’s return. You can make it happen.”
“Yes.”
“Then do it."

Summary
In the end, Arthur had come to a couple of conclusions. Firstly, he's madly in love with an utter dumbass, though he knew that already. Secondly, said dumbass has a fear of scaring his loved ones off, which is ridiculous because Merlin couldn’t get rid of him if he tried. Thirdly, making him wait before officially becoming Court Sorcerer seemed to confirm his fear of being dangerous; a feeling Arthur would never ever want to purposefully invoke in him. And fourth, his people began to view Merlin as their king more than they did Arthur. Oddly enough, as it happened more and more after the situation in the lower towns, the king found more and more times that it, in fact, had always been that way. Only now, people were a bit more open about their favouritism.
The hierarchy in a castle should be fairly easy to understand. Servants and cooks and stable boys all somewhere near the bottom with the King himself at the very top. Somehow, Arthur had managed to completely dismiss that as soon as he made magic legal. In his righteous defence, it was all Merlin’s fault. And Gwaine’s, definitely Gwaine’s.
