To have known you has been my greatest pleasure, and to sacrifice myself for you is but an honour.
You are, and will always be, the son I never had. My lady.It is a long time since you called me that. I've come to ask for your help. As you once did before, for Uther. You did not like the outcome. I offer a chance for you to atone for the death of his wife. I have save the life of her son. What more do you ask for? That this time, you take a just price. Merlin intends to offer his life for his mother's. I want you to take mine in his place. With all my powers of prediction, I could never have foretold this. Gaius the hero! Why should I grant your wish? You stood and watched as our friends burned in the great purge. You are nothing but a traitor. Merlin is the one man who can bring magic back to this land. At Arthur's side, he can help forge a new kingdom.
