The Sundered Soul by DarkWhimsy

[merlinoutofcontext]

Hello, sorry to bother you but could you please help me signal boost this? The other day I found a Merlin fic on AO3 that I was super excited to read, but now I've lost the link and can't find it, nor do I remember the title or the author! :'( It was a story published not so long ago (as in, in the 2020s instead of the 2010s), and from what I recall of the summary, it was about Merlin's soul being ripped out of his body and leaving only his magic, an emotionless Emrys, in charge. Does that sound familiar to anybody?

signal boosting! hope you find it!

One—Mordred—would be wrong. Fic: Say no to this (the “yes” Remix) for aeternanyx (Arthur/Merlin – Teen and Up – 6243w) Summary: It's a tale as old as time: two childhood friends, a marriage of convenience, and definitely no messy feelings, unrequited or otherwise. A look at Arthur and Merlin's relationship through the eyes and ears of six people close to them. or Five times Arthur and Merlin's friends and family despair of them ever getting their shit together, and one time they finally get it right Fic: A Trick of the Mind for CheesyBug6 (Gen – Gen – 2741w) Summary: After a stressful week at court, arguing legal loopholes, Merlin takes a week off to visit his mother. His magic, on the other hand, is a little more petty. Fic: Silk (The Black Satin Remix) for BeBraveDearHeart (Arthur/Lancelot – Explicit – 1100w) Summary: “I found something,” Lancelot said, a smile on his lips, and slid a hand into a pocket of his trousers. He pulled out a piece of black fabric. A long, black piece of silk. Arthur swallowed as recognition dawned.

Colin Morgan - Sicily, Italy ⛰️

Colin Morgan and his cast and crew mates from The Emperor’s Stone, shot on film by costar Antonia Desplat. Colin was being shaded from the sun on the set of filming so that he doesn’t get an inconsistent tan, just like in BBC Merlin days. He also joined in the hiking along the coast with his costars ☂️⛰️
