Why this must be read: It's a modern AU where magic exists and is publicaly known. Arthur is a magic-politics scholar and Merlin has magic (of course). What's great about this fic is its complexity - nothing is easy or black and white, no matter how Arthur would like it to be, and there's no clear moral high-ground for anybody, despite how much Arthur wishes there was. The characters have the freedom to be confused, wrong and inarticulate... Quite a unique fic, and amazingly well-crafted.


This fic contains infidelity.
