Oh, nice. expectations of a glorious destiny destroyed the man, too That's such a powerful line. Poor Merlin. And that last line, is a fear born of grief. Very effective. (But I choose to believe that grief passes and he didn't sit inactive over the centuries. Who knows how bad some of it would have been, if he had not stepped in and been the sorcerer fighting against injustice? *g*)
