Got another few concepts from this!

I remember reading fairytales about Tom Thumb as a kid and I had abolutely no idea that the 'nice King and Queen' were supposed to be Arthur and Guinevere!

In this version, he doesn't speak and all the knights love him and his sass - except for that one noble who has never seen him and thinks the entire court is playing some joke about 'the tiny Tom Thumb boy'.

Also, yes, Merlin's child form is indeed based on Merlin from the BBC show, sue me.
