You're a brave man Merlin, between battles.
S4 E1The Darkest Hour (Part One)
You all right?
It's cold.
Right.
You're not feeling it?
[Merlin shakes his head.]
You know, Merlin- you're braver than they give you credit for.
Really, was that so difficult?
That was stupid.
[They both laugh.]
You know, they say the darkest hour is just before the dawn.
It's pretty dark right now.
It won't be long, now.
All the things I've faced...I've never worried about dying.
I don't think you should now.
Sometimes you puzzle me.
You never fathomed me out?
...No.
I always thought, if things had been different, we would have been good friends.
Yeah.
S4 E2The Darkest Hour (Part Two)
[About Merlin dying] This is my fault... and I'm sorry.
[Struggles to talk] Take me with you... please.
You'd die, Merlin.
You don't understand... please, Arthur.
Do you ever do as you're told?
I have to come with you.
Merlin...
We need to leave.
Do you hear that?
Bees?
Food!
You're quiet.
That's what happens after three days listening to Gwaine.
[Smiles at the joke before turning serious again] You did the right thing, you know? Merlin couldn't continue with us.
I should've saved him.
Remind me again why we're wearing this disgusting paste?
Wilddeoren are completely blind. They rely totally on their sense of smell. Gaia berries will mask our scent.
What are the chances of us not seeing a wilddeoren?
None.
[Confused at Merlin's recovery] You're meant to be... dying.
Sorry.

[about Guinevere] She's a servant. A spirited one perhaps, but a servant nonetheless.
No, you're wrong. I have dreamt the future, and in it, that 'servant' sits upon my throne. I would rather drown in my own blood than see that day.
AAgravaine
Then we must make sure it never comes.
I couldn't agree more. We must make sure she never sees another dawn.
Do you know what we're going to face on the Isle of the Blessed?
[Arthur nods]
Do you want to tell me?
The burden is mine and mine to bear alone.
Look around, Arthur. We would fight 1,000 armies with our bare hands for you. You are never alone. We stand together. Come on, I'll take over. You need some rest.
[Passes him the torch] Thank you.
You don't have to continue on this journey with me, you know?
[Chuckles] Try and stop me.
Why? Because you're a knight, you feel honour-bound?
You wouldn't understand. It doesn't make any sense to me either.
Gwen?
I made her a vow I would keep Arthur safe.
You don't have to worry. I'll keep him safe.
[About Gwen] You still think about her?
No. Arthur's a better man than me.
I'm sorry.
Why? He loves her... and she's happy.
[To Merlin] Who is your friend?
I am Lancelot.
Of course, Sir Lancelot. The bravest and most noble of them all.
I'm not sure that is true.
We shall see.
Arthur intends to sacrifice himself to heal the veil. It is my destiny is to protect him, you taught me that.
Merlin, you must not do this.
I have no choice. I must take his place.
From the moment I met you, I saw something that was invisible. Now it is there for all to see.
A lot of what you see, old friend... is what you taught me.
It will be an empty world without you, young warlock.
When we get to the Isle of the Blessed, do you really intend to sacrifice yourself?
What do you want me to say?
I look at you and I wonder about myself. Could I knowingly give up my life for something?
You have to have a reason. Something you care about. Something that's more important than anything.
