I haven't read too far into the story, but I hope Merlin would help Morgana. I'm not trying to be mean, but I think Merlin should be at least a bit hesitant with Uther. Like come on! He murdered his parents!

I am really enjoying the story, but somrthing is bugging me. I don't know if it's even relevant for this fic but I hope it helps you in other writing projects. You keep using "should of" and sentences of the sort. It's gramatically wrong. The right way to write the Present Perfect is "should have". For example, "I should have done my homework, but I went to the party instead."

Ok. Tbh the further we go the more glaring plot holes I see. It's still interesting (and the show itself had many a plothole) but you are keeping way too close to canon for all the changes that supposedly already took place.

And Arthur doesn't use Excalibur? What's the point of Merlin presenting him with the blade right away if Arthur doesn't use it?

...uhhhh, the one who is to be healed must drink the water? Arthur can stir magic now? #nitpicking

Are we getting the knights of the round table here at all? u
I see there was no Lance u

Uther wanting an excuse to call Morgana "daughter". And Merlin isn't REALLY his child. As in, no incest there, bloodwise. Lmao xD

When did Merlin become such a smooth liar tho? *cough*woodworm*cough*

Hm I wonder if Merlin and Morgana will agree about Uther in this verse, one way or another.

The attack you based Merlin's final move off happened in The Witch's Quickening.

Why did you change the king of Mercia's name?

Wow, I laughed a lot with this chapter!

I fine the spelling perfectly fine.(I'm Australian though...) But the same things happens for me with UK writing and stuff.
Really excited to read the rest of the book!

May I suggest you skip writing the parts that are copied off the show? We know the plot details in canon. Some of us even know the dialogue.

Love it.
