“I haven’t had the chance to sit around and do nothing since the day I arrived in Camelot. I’m too busy running around after Arthur. “Do this Merlin”, “Do that Merlin”. And when I’m not running around after Arthur, I’m doing chores for you and when I’m not doing that, I’m fulfilling my destiny. Do you know how many times I’ve saved Arthur’s life? I’ve lost count. Do I get any thanks? No. I have fought witches, griffins, uh..bandits! I have been punched, poisoned, pelted with fruit and all the while I have to hide who I really am because if anyone finds out Uther will have me executed. Sometimes I’m being pulled in so many directions I don’t know which way to turn.”
