I read this a few days ago, and spent the last two days trying desperately to find it again, and the lovely Merlin_Finders community found it in 30 seconds flat - brilliant people...
And I haven't read all 287 comments - just this first page. But I simply must ask - was there ever more? Was there a story of Arthur in our century, lost without Merlin, stung by Colin's indifference? Or a bittersweet story of Merlin solving the riddle - the power to bring Arthur back (possibly in time to win the war), but knowing he'd have to give up Bradley as the price?
Please tell me there is more? This story breaks my heart. The slash was lovely, but the real power was in the non-slash - in the two men slowly growing to be friends, when Merlin's heart was breaking for the lover he has lost, staring into his lover's face every day and knowing him gone.
*swoon* I loved this. Thank you! It may even have finally sold me on actor fic. :)
