It was quiet by the lake. Water, already covering Merlin’s knees, lapping against him in tiny wavelets, beckoned him in. He took another step, listening to the wash of white noise against his thighs, the sounds, whispering of peace and oblivion, a welcome counterpoint to the desolation inside his head.

He’d lost everyone who ever mattered. Arthur wasn’t coming back, not matter what lies that bastard dragon had fed him. He’d waited a thousand years or more. Now he was done. There was nothing left to believe in.

He only hoped that Avalon’s lake would give him a final peace.
