Summary
He has known the turned back of each he once trusted to protect him, the creeping understanding of sweet eyes he would never again see. He has known the slow, small death of starvation, and the aching, gasping death of sudden pain. He has known the ire of the eyes of men and walked in ruins laid to waste by creatures older than their names. He has known the gaze of Emrys turned on him in hate and loathing with a length of steel streaking for his throat. He has known fear greater than this.
And so he moves, in spite of his terror.
As the others clash about to rally or flee, he rides to his king. He hoists the man’s armored form onto the saddle with a strength born of desperation and climbs up behind him, electricity spurring through his motions. He kicks his mare, and she needs no further encouragement.
They run.
Merlin and Mordred and Prophecy, Oh my!

Summary
“You have got to be kidding me.”
“Well,” Merlin said faintly, “they are very straight-forward instructions.”
Arthur glared at the cave wall in front of him as if it would make the words change. In fact, Merlin could have sworn they etched themselves deeper.

Merlin may just have been having the worst day of his life.OR: Merlin and Arthur end up in a sorcerer’s cave. The only way out is by using magic. Neither of them like the idea very much. Arthur ends up surprising Merlin (and possibly himself as well). It escalates from there.
