    Summary

    In a world of marauding kings, the Pendragon empire is one of the strongest. With the use of a rumenthrall named Merlin, they are slowly, but surely, conquering the entirety of Albion.

    Arthur Pendragon, heir to the throne, despises the dynasty and society he was born into, one that enslaves those with magical ability and values power over morality. However, despite his best efforts, he is powerless to stop his father, especially when it comes to Merlin.

    One day, however, Uther will die and Arthur will be king. And Merlin and Arthur have plans.

    Summary

    “Think about it, ladies and gentlemen,” the auctioneer crowed. “Just imagine! A prince bowing at your feet! Serving you. In any manner you wish!”

    The implications of the last statement sent shudders into his body and the crowd rose in volume and even more in price.

    Arthur shut his eyes. This was him now. A slave. His past life forgotten save for the appeal of selling him off to a new master. He had tried to escape so many times and had the scars to count them, but he could escape no more now. He had accepted it months ago.

    Suddenly, a voice rose.

    “Twelve hundred gold pieces.”

    And the crowd fell into a hush.

    Summary

    Arthur caught his sorcerer’s eye again. “If Emrys did have a simple, human identity, you wouldn’t have any suspicion who it could be, at all?”
    “I wouldn't, I’m afraid.” Merlin shrugged one shoulder, seeming somewhat defeated. “I’ll look into it.”
    Once, years ago, Arthur had been sure he could tell when Merlin was lying through his teeth. How frustrating it was to know that couldn’t be further from the truth.

    Or: In a fixed-it post-canon, word begins to get out about the godlike sorcerer Emrys who will aid the Once and Future King to unite all of Albion. This, of course, results in all the leaders of Albion beginning their attempts to win the elusive Emrys’ favor, in order to be chosen as his prophesied King.
    Even as his Court Sorcerer, Merlin lives to antagonize Arthur and decides to inform the world -as Emrys- that he has already chosen his King, in a... less-than-conventional way.

    (Can be read standalone from the series.)
