Once John left he was just standing there taking in his surroundings. The world looked so different. He wondered if Magic was still used. He felt it running through the earth beneath his feet. It wasn't as strong but it was still there. He decided to follow the strongest source of magic he could feel to see if they could give him answers.

He starts walking through the streets of New York. He looks normal there, like any other tourist seeing the city for the first time. He learned how to avoid the magic carriages or metal beasts. And eventually, he ends up in front of a building. It reads 'Pandemonium'. It looks different than the other buildings he's seen so far. While he's standing there staring someone bumps into him hard.

He turns to look. And says,

"Owe that hurt. Please watch where you're going." The man who bumped into Merlin turns to him and says,

"What language was that? ...Wait you can see me. Why do so many mundanes have the sight." He sighs loudly. Normally he would just leave him, but something told him to help him.

So that's how we come to Alec walking with Merlin into the Pandemonium.

Merlin didn't understand anything that was happening but felt that he could trust him. So he followed the man into the building and the kept heading up.

Everything was so different he was just in awe at some of the things in the room. The floor was changing colors and there was music coming from somewhere, it was really loud. Also, there were so many people there. He almost lost the man twice.

Eventually, he stops at a door and gestures for Merlin to enter. Merlin is a bit wary but enters because he doesn't really have a choice.

What he sees is a room that looks weird but not as weird as some of the things before. So he studies the room until his eyes land on a man in the corner with a drink in his hand. He looked well weird he was very neat and glittery. But nothing could really surprise him now.

Alec walked in after Merlin and looked to see Magnus standing there. He smiled and walked up to him. They shared a short but sweet kiss. Merlin gave a weird expression but it wasn't unheard of in Camelot so he said nothing.

After they separated Magnus turned to face Merlin and said,

"You're an extremely powerful warlock but I don't think we've had the chance to meet before." Merlin looked at him confused he still had no idea what was said but he felt the power coming from him. He hoped at least maybe he could understand him so he said,

"Merlin est nomen meum, et ego non intellego quid dixisti". (translates to My name is Merlin and I don't understand what you're saying(kind of) There was an obvious surprise on Magnus's face as he looked at Alec and said,

"Where ever did you find this one. He's speaking old Latin that's very much extinct. Alec responds,

"He was just standing outside side your club and he had the sight so I brought him cause he spoke such a weird language." Magnus turned to Merlin and waved his hand and a blue flame appeared. Merlin stepped back at the obvious use of magic. Magnus said a spell and it hit Merlin right in the face.

Merlin stumbled backwards and held his face but surprisingly he felt no pain. He looked at the glittery guy and said,

"What did you do that for? What was the..." he realized that he was totally fine and he spoke weird.

"So sorry to scare you, but communication through charades is quite annoying after a while.", said Magnus. Merlin looked at him with awe, he could now understand everything that was said and assumed that they understood him.

"So, now that we figured that out maybe you can tell us about yourself," Magnus said while giving Merlin an easy smile.

Merlin had so many questions to ask about the world and the things in it. But refrained himself for the time being. He decided introductions where in order so he said,

"My name is Merlin." Magnus chuckles at his name and asks,

"Your parents named you after The Merlin". Merlin's face was that of a confused man. He was wondering why it was weird that his parents had named him Merlin, and who this The Merlin was exactly. So he asked,

"Why would my name be so weird... um ...sir". Magnus says,

"Oh right apologies, My name is Magnus Bane and the handsome man next to me is Alec Lightwood." Alec blushes and says hi.
