Summary
In Camelot, secrets are a form of survival.
When Morgana begins to fear the magic awakening within her, Merlin becomes her quiet anchor ⎯ teaching control where others would offer condemnation. As the kingdom tightens its laws against sorcery, Arthur begins to notice the impossible patterns surrounding his servant: acts of loyalty that defy reason, courage that borders on prophecy, and a devotion that costs Merlin more than anyone ever sees.
Love, too, must be hidden. Between prince and servant, between king and sorcerer, it exists unspoken ⎯ known only in stolen moments and unguarded silences.
Destiny, however, does not yield to secrecy.
Some promies are kept only after the one who made them is gone.
