'In a land of myth
and a time of magic,'

'the destiny of a great kingdom'

'rests on the shoulders
of a young man.'

'His name..'

'Merlin.'

King Rodor.

Princess Mithian.

You are as beautiful as they say.

And you, Odin, are a
cold-blooded murderer.

Why have you done this?

You should choose your allies
more carefully.

Any friend of Camelot is
an enemy of mine.

So... We divide the spoils as agreed.

Take whatever you wish.

So what is your business here, Morgana?

I seek what is rightfully mine.

I seek the throne of Camelot.

And for that I need an army.

- My army?
- I believe they showed their mettle today.

And what do I receive in
return for this service?

Arthur.

To do with as you wish.

Show yourselves!

Sir Leon. It gladdens
my heart to see you.

- Princess Mithian...
- My lady...

Quickly. We must get her to Gaius.

Merlin, bring blankets
and build a fire.

Hurry now, we must keep
her warm at all costs.

Is she going to be all right?

I'm afraid it's too early to say.
Thank you, Leon.

- You've done all you can.
- Of course...

I'll have someone show
you to your room.

I will not leave my mistress.

- She is in safe hands, I assure you.
- She means everything to me.

- If it were up to me...
- Please!
- Gaius?

Make yourself comfortable.
Merlin, give me a blanket.

Yes?

How is she? She's weak and she's
clearly exhausted. But she'll live.

Good. I'll speak to her at once.

- Actually, no.
- Excuse me?

- She's not to be disturbed until morning.
- This is important.

And so is the health of the Princess.

Did you just give me an order?

- Yes, sire.
- Feels good does it?

It's... not unpleasant.

Arthur?

To ride all through the night.
Something must have happened.

- We'll know more in the morning.
- Sure.

Your magic may be strong, Morgana,

- But you can't keep this up
for long. It's exhausting you.
- Enough!

You just concentrate on making sure
your friends believe your story.

They came at night.

Without warning.

We were... unprepared.

We could not hold them.

This was three days ago you say?

His men...

they showed no mercy.

They cut us down like corn.

Odin has no care for the
suffering he causes.

And your father?

He was badly wounded,
but we managed to escape.

Where is he now? We made it
almost as far as the border,

but he could not
continue any further.

Odin's men will be searching for us.

It's only a matter of time
before they find him.

I see.

My father is an old man.

He cannot fend for himself.

I have no one else to turn
to but you, Arthur.

You are my only hope...

Mithian, I understand how
you must be feeling.

And I will do everything in
my power to help you.

Thank you, My Lord.

Rodor has taken refuge here,

at the ancient tomb of King Lothar,
three leagues from our border.

- And Mithian can lead us there?
- She is recovering well.

Now our only chance of getting Rodor
back is with speed and stealth.

- With just a small group of Knights.
- We could be over the border and
back again in a matter of hours.
- Exactly.

- Sire, if I may?
- Yes, Gaius?

Odin has long been after your blood.
If he finds out about this,

you could have an entire
army at your backs.

That's true, but Odin doesn't know
where Rodor is. And we do.

By the time he's realised what's
happened, we'll be long gone.

Now, we'll camp overnight
in the forest of Gedref.

We leave with the rising sun.

Cume mec, hraefn wan...

..bebuge me. Nim bod min thissere
nihte thinum drhytne.

Sorry. I did knock.

No need to apologise.

Gaius sent me.
I have a draught for the Princess.

How thoughtful.
Thank you, Merlin.

Goodnight, then.

I would not test me if I were you.

You would not enjoy
the consequences.

Have you got something
on your mind, Merlin?

I don't know.

There's something not quite
right with Mithian.

Should I go and see her?

No, it's not like that.
She's not unwell...

It's as if she's
frightened of something.

Well, she's worried, Merlin.
She's worried about her father.

It's only to be expected.

It's more than that.
I can see fear in her eyes.

It's not the Mithian I know.

The Mithian you knew was
here in happier times.

It's not just Mithian. It's Hilde.

There's something not
right between them.

They've both been through
a terrible ordeal, Merlin.

They've fled their home, barely
escaped with their lives.

It's not surprising
if the strain has taken its toll.

Maybe...

Come on, we have work to do.
We must pack up our supplies.

Arthur,
why have you agreed to help Mithian?

Because Nemeth is our ally.

One small slip and Camelot could
find itself without a King.

That is a risk I'm prepared to take.

For Nemeth or for yourself?

What do you mean "for myself?"

It was Odin who
took your father's life.

You can't deny that you've been
waiting for a chance to retaliate.

Whatever I feel about Odin
has nothing to do with this.

- Really?
- Absolutely not.

It's about helping our friends.
No more, no less.

Good. I just wanted to be sure.

But you were right to ask.

I rely on your honesty, Guinevere.

And I love you for it.

Seems your daughter is not just
a pretty face, Rodor.

Arthur is preparing
to depart Camelot.

Tell the men to make ready...

..the tomb of a king.

A fitting end to Arthur's
journey, don't you think?

You lead an honourable
man to his death, Odin.

You're no king, you're little more
than a common criminal,

Arthur is the criminal.

He proved that, when
he murdered my son.

Looking for someone?

No... I was just...

Did you really imagine you could
go to Arthur behind my back?

You're mistaken, I was just...

If you betray me again, I'll
bury your father alive.

Understand?

Yes! Yes!

Please... make it stop.

Is everything all right?

Get up. Slowly.

The Princess was feeling a
little faint, that's all.

We were just getting some air.

Oh, well, I hope you're
feeling better now?

Much better, thank you.

We won't detain you any further,
My Lady. Good night.

Sleep well.

Sire. Wait.

What is it? This mission...

..is too dangerous
so I shouldn't go?

You're thinking the same thing?

No, I'm thinking that's exactly
what you always say.

And yet here I am. Two legs,
two arms, my own teeth.

I've got a funny feeling though
there's something we're missing.

Something we don't know.
But you can't say what exactly?

No. No.

Maybe we should delay the mission

until we have all
the facts at our disposal?

Fine.

Oh, go and tell Princess Mithian
that we've decided

to let her father die because
you have a funny feeling.

I didn't think so.

How did you get that?

I...

I was bound by Odin's men,
before I escaped.

I'm sorry,

I didn't realise that.

It's a very painful memory.

I'm sure she'd rather
not dwell on it.

Of course, I understand.

It doesn't make sense. Mithian
told Arthur that she'd escaped.

She never said anything
about being captured.

She was in shock, Merlin.

So, that's quite an important detail
to leave out of your story.

Why would she lie?

Because she didn't want me
to know how she really got

that burn on her wrist. Gaius,
there's something not right here.

We have to reach the border
by nightfall! Let's move out!

Arthur.

Are you sure this is the
right thing to be doing?

Ah, your funny feeling again, is it?

- Something like that.
- Have you been talking to Guinevere?

No. Why did you ask?

Did she have doubts about
you rescuing Rodor?

Odin is a plague on this land.

I can't just stand by
and let him murder

Mithian's father as
he murdered my own.

I know what he did.

God knows I understand
why you hate him.

But to risk so much for one
small act of revenge...

Tell me, Merlin,

if you were me, if
you were in my shoes,

would you do any different?

Probably.. not.

Gaius!

All right.

Just breathe in.. that's it.

I'm fine.

Of course. I just want
to be sure, all the same.

It's really not necessary.

Hilde, if you're unwell
you must let Gaius help you.

Oh, if you insist...

Well, no obvious problems
that I can find.

You're in excellent health, Hilde.

Thank you, Gaius.

In better shape than me, at any rate.

Merlin, it's amazing. Her blood...

it flows with the strength and
vigour of someone half her age.

How is that possible?

I'm not entirely sure.

All I know is she's better
preserved than anyone her age

has any right to be.

Going somewhere?

I need to wash.

Do I need to remind you what
fate awaits your father

should you try anything foolish?

I need to wash. That's all.

Don't be long.

Sire?

Have the outriders returned?

Yes, sire. They report large
numbers of Odin's men patrolling

just beyond the border.

They're looking for Rodor.

Sir, we are but few. If we're seen,
there will be no escape.

Would it not be wise to
remain here, until...?

Out of the question.
Time's a luxury we don't have.

But we have good cover.

With any luck, the patrols
will pass us by soon enough...

We press on for Nemeth.

Make ready to depart.

Princess?

Good morning, Merlin.

Can I help you... with something?

I hope so.

I... need this refilling, please.

No need.

Here.

You can have mine.

I'd prefer my own.

If you don't mind.

Not at all.

Thank you.

Ah!

Huh!

Gewseore, hine beclyppe!

Merlin?!

Here!

He's here.

What happened?!

Hilde found him.

He was down by the river.
He must have fallen.

Gaius?

He's taken a heavy blow
to the head...

But he'll be all right?

He should be fine sire,
but there's no telling

when he'll regain consciousness.

We can't wait for him.

Not if we're to stand a chance of
reaching Rodor before Odin's men.

Gwaine, you stay here
with Merlin and Gaius...

The rest of us make for Nemeth.

I warned you there'd be consequences
if you tried anything.

He should've come round by now.

It's unusual, certainly.

Just a blow to the head, you say?

There's nothing to suggest
anything more.

On the outside, at least.

He's getting cold, you better
get some more firewood.
I'll be right back.

Icthe thurhhaele thinu licsar.

The tomb lies just east
of the river.

We're about to cross the Camelot border
into Nemeth. This is Odin's land now.

So stay alert.

Icthe thurhhaele thinu

licsar.

Come on, Merlin.

Icthe thurhhaele thinu

licsar.

Please, Merlin.

That's all I have.

Let it be enough.

Merlin!

Gaius!

Hilde... is Morgana.

Morgana?!

She's been using some kind of aging spell.

That explains why she's always so tired.

Mithian tried to warn me, but
I couldn't get to Arthur in time.

Morgana got to me first...

And very nearly killed you, Merlin.

Yes...

she didn't count on a sorcerer
of your power now, did she?

Indeed. But please, Merlin.

Don't make me do that again.

I'm not sure my heart can take it.

Merlin!

We need to get to Arthur.
He's walking straight into a trap!

Are you sure of the way?

Yes, we're not far now.
If we keep heading east,

the tomb lies just ahead.

They're travelling east.
Maybe an hour ahead of us.

We don't have much time!

Is that it?

Yes.

We should find my father inside...

Let's go, then.

Hey... this way.

Leon, Elyan, stand watch with the
others. Percival, you're with me.

The burial chamber lies just ahead...

end of that tunnel.

Odin's men.

I don't understand. Where's your father?

He's not here.

Then where is he?

Arthur, I...

What wrong have I done you?!

Uh!

Arthur Pendragon. At last.

I've waited many years
for this moment.

You killed my son.

You took what was
most precious from me...

and now you will pay the forfeit.

And not a moment too soon.

You are not alone in having
waited for this moment, Odin.

Appearances can be deceaving, dear brother!

Morgana...

And now, you will pay the forfeit.

My father's life -
that wasn't enough?

No.

So be it.

But understand this, Odin.

You kill me, and you'll have
all of Camelot to answer to.

Camelot is nothing without its king.

Then you don't know my knights.

They will hunt you,
and they will find you.

And they will not rest
until they're done.

I will deal with your knights
soon enough.

But now, your time has come.

We're too late.

Not if we even up the numbers.

Sounds good to me.

I'll look for Arthur.

Good luck.

HE URINATES

Icthe bebode thaet thu abifiast nu!

Merlin!

Hurry! This way!

Now!

This way!

Don't look so surprised.
I commanded an army in my time.

And you will do so again.

Leave me.

That's not going to happen.
You're the reason we're here...

Leave me, save Mithian.

Follow the ridge line.

What about you?

We'll lead them the other way.

No! This is between me and Odin.
You need no further part in this.

NO!

I want to do this myself!

Arthur! Stop!

Think about what you're doing.

What good will this achieve?

How many times have you
talked about uniting this land?

Will killing this man make
that dream any closer?

He is right.

This is no answer.

Finish it.

- Finish it and be done.
- And what then?

Your people will seek their revenge.

A war without an end.

There is no other way.

There is another way.

In return for your life,

you must restore Rodor
to the throne of Nemeth.

Even if I agreed, it solves nothing.

What about us, Pendragon?

A truce.

Binding our kingdoms to peace.

Never!

Is this what you want?
To die here, now,

knowing that you condemn
this land to war?

Odin.

We cannot let it end like this.

The blood will never wash off.

You killed my son.

You killed my father!

We have both lost
much at the other's hand.

Let us lose no more.

I'm offering you the chance to end this.

Take it!

Take it!

So be it.

A truce...

It is.

Your wounds are painful,
sire, but superficial.

You'll heal in good time.

Thank you, Gaius.

Odin has withdrawn his army
from Nemeth and its lands.

All thanks to you.

Well, everyone played their part.

I know I played mine.

- Arthur...
- Mithian.

You don't need to apologise.
You had no choice.

I would have done the same thing
had it been my father.

Camelot is fortunate to have
such a king such as you.

It is I that is fortunate.

Camelot would be nothing were it
not for the courage and loyalty...
of its friends.

You could have killed Odin.
You had every reason.

But you did something far
more important.

Gave the people of this land
hope for the future.

I'm proud of you.

Merlin should take
some of the credit.

- It turns out he's not always entirely stupid.
- Was that a compliment?

Don't tell him, whatever you do.
I'll never hear the end of it...

It seems that things turned
out well after all.

To have signed a treaty with
Odin is a great achievement.

And it brings a united
kingdom one step closer...

Not while Morgana lives and
breathes, it doesn't.

Her power grows, Gaius.

To have held an aging spell that
long, that's frightening...

Be that as it may, she
is not yet your equal.

And if that day should come?

Let us hope it does not.

This is the judgment of
the gods against you.

Merlin!
