Gah! Just wanted to say how PROUD I am of this video. I love the way this one came out, and, considering it was made in WMM (which kept crashing ARRRGH!) it worked out pretty fine and dandy. If I do say so myself. Which I do. Instead of blathering on I shall summarise with two things:
1) It took three hours to make the opening twenty odd seconds.
2) I shall now tell you the storyline, and enjoy the AMV!
STORY:
Merlin is very close to Arthur, (make your own conclusions), but wishes Arthur would return some sort of emotion. He uses his magic to vent his anger.
Bad idea.
His magic begins to consume him, creating a darker side. Every time Arthur frustrates him, he vents his anger more and more powerfully, until soon he can't escape his dark side's grip.
Uther suspects Merlin, but Arthur is unsure, remembering his time with Merlin.
Morgana tries to warn Arthur, but Dark!Merlin dismisses her. She dreams of Merlin, and how he murders Arthur, but when she gets there, it's too late. Arthur is dead.
Merlin, struggling with his two sides, tries to give his life in turn for Arthur's, but his Dark!Merlin side won't let him. He duels himself in his mind, fighting. Merlin kills his darker side with his purer magic, but destroys himself too.
'You're damn right there is, but we can't talk about it now.'

THIS VIDEO IS AMAZING. One of the best dark!Merlin videos out there. I really, truly love it. Perfect voice overs, and plot that is easy to follow without reading, and the whole black and white sections when dark!Merlin dismisses Morgana's warnings to Arthur was soooooooo amazing. Anyway. Loved it!

To Dark!Merlin fans

A Servant Of Two Masters - Episode 6 , Airs Nov 5

Merlin becomes a deadly weapon in Morgana's fight for supremacy when he falls into her hands. By recurring to ancient magic, she manages to turn friend against friend and creates the perfect assassin out of the young sorcerer which puts an oblivious King Arthur in great danger. Will anyone notice Merlin's unusual behaviour before he is able to do any serious harm to the King?
