In a Camelot where sorcery is outlawed on pain of death, a gifted young man named Merlin arrives to serve at court, forced to conceal the extraordinary magic he was born with. Fate binds him to the arrogant Prince Arthur, the heir he is secretly destined to protect and guide toward the legendary king he will one day become. Torn between duty, friendship and the dangerous secret that could cost him his life, Merlin battles enchantresses, beasts and prophecy from the shadows. This family-friendly reimagining of Arthurian myth blends adventure, humor and destiny into an origin story told from the wizard's point of view.
