Magic reveal au where the druids have been writing prophecies about Merlin and Arthur centuries before they were even born, so among the magical creatures, they are already extremely well known. Well, one day,(before Morgana turns evil) a group of patrols who were supposed to patrol the border to Cedric's kingdom didn't come back. Arthur decides to go check it out himself, and of course, he brings Merlin. Once they arrive and find the scouts (now dead), they stumble upon some kind of magic creature that is vaugly human attempting to help an injured scout. Arthur questions of the creature did this, and the creature says something along the lines of "by Morgana no! I would never hurt Camelot knights. You guys have some of the best caves to hang out in."

Arthur is like, "tf you mean 'by Morgana'?" And the creature kinda give him a look and is like "yaknow, Morgana, the greatest witch of our time, the dark sorceress?" And Arthur promptly is like "SORCERESS? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" The creature notices the symbol on his cape and is like, "Oh, you're from Camelot, nvm." And Arthur is like, "I am the prince of Camelot and you will tell me," or something like that. Then the creature is like, "...are you the arthur pendragon?" So arthur is like "obviously, " and she turns to Merlin with an almost scared expression and is like, "Is that... the Merlin?" And when she gets confirmation that that is, in fact, merlin, they quickly bow their head and start stammering apologies for their rudness. Arthur is losing his mind, merlin is sweating and trying to say that they have him confused with someone else, and the knight is like actively dying on the floor.
