Dark Days

"I want to protest!"

"Indeed?"

"Gaius, it's too much. Everything rests on my shoulders. I must stop Cenred's evil army, protect Arthur, fight off Morgause, somehow make Morgana reveal her true self... it's not fair. I can't do it."

"I have faith in you, Merlin. And I'll help you all that I can."

"But it's hopeless!"

"Maybe. But you don't know that. We can't give up. If these are the worst of days, I know they will bring out the best in you, in me, in everyone who loves Camelot."

"Can good and right really prevail?"

"In the end, always."
