#i just finished mordreds episode and excalibur and ahhhhhhh the fact that they had Excalibur come right after mordred is so

I love Arthuriana but I really love BBC Merlin and the twist it's makes because it really pulls the concept of prophecy to new heights. Like a lot of people get mad because Merlin's destiny is that he is to see Arthur through becoming the once and future king and to unite the land of Albion, and this never happens... But at the same time Merlin isn't the only one with a Destiny because we have Mordred and Morgana and Arthur himself... At the same time Mordred's destiny is to unite with Morgana and to kill Arthur at the battle of Camlam... Morgana's destiny is to die by Merlin's hand, Arthur's destiny is to die by Mordred's hand... So yes Merlin has his destiny but that doesn't make his destiny everyone else's because at the end of the day, what happens when someone else's destiny comes before your own?
