Title:
The Beginning of the EndAuthor:
archaeologist_dSummary: Destiny is a fickle thing. Arthur's fate is sealed when Mordred reappears. A speculation story. Will likely be AU when Series 5 starts.
Characters: Arthur, Merlin, Mordred
Rating: G
Word count: 6K
Warnings: Spoilers for Series 5. Spoilers listed at the end of the story.
Notes: 1) This story can be read just as a story. The spoilers are obvious only if you know they are spoilers. 2) Merlin was described as a boy for 3 series. I figured I could get away with calling a 17 year old a boy just because they did it in the show.
