This is great. I'd really love to see how Arthur reacts when the whole truth comes spilling out.

Thank you! ;)

Ooh, I loved this. That would have been such an interesting way for the magic reveal to happen...

Yes that would be fun wouldn't it? Glad to hear you enjoyed this. Thanks for your comments!

Lovely fic. I liked the way Arthur is coming round to the idea towards the end that magic can't all be bad, and that he'll go against the beliefs he's been brought up with if it means saving Merlin :)

With the right incentive (saving Merlin), I think Arthur will come to regard magic as having some potential for good. Thanks for reading and commenting!

I wished for something like that in the series! Arthur having to use magic in order to save Merlin!

Thanks for making it into a fic!

You're welcome. The series could have done a reveal in so many ways, but I can see why they felt it would remove the major tension-builder of Merlin having to hide his magic. Glad this fills a hole for you--that is why I write fanfic! Thank you for reading and commenting!
