Citizen of Essitir

Merlin is still technically a citizen of Essitir, and the new regents decide it's time he served his own kingdom instead of Camelot.

The Knights know of Merlin's magic, so does King Arthur. They all try to find a way to free Merlin without causing a war.

Mostly the POV of Arthur and the Knights to show their worry and concern over Merlin's well-being.

I ship Merwaine, but a nice touch of Merwaincelot added in.
