|ShortSummary = The series begins with Morgan talking to her father, King Uther Pendragon. She offers him forgiveness for cheating on her mother and for sending her away for 15 years. Uther dismisses Morgan and says he no longer has a daughter. Morgan swears he will pay. Morgan kills her father and promptly banishes his wife, Igraine, inviting her father's most powerful enemy, King Lot to Camelot to formalise an alliance in the process. Merlin, Uther's most trusted adviser, finds a young man named Arthur, who has no direction in life. He tells Arthur that he is of royal blood and is the new king. Arthur has trouble believing this but his adoptive parents tell him it is the truth. Merlin asks him to go with him and find his destiny, and Arthur agrees to find out answers about his past. Merlin, Arthur and his adoptive brother, Kay travel to the abandoned fortress of Camelot — the future site of Arthur's leadership. Back at Uther's palace, Morgan hears of the 'new king' and believes it is impossible and that she is the rightful heir and decides to go see Arthur for herself. Arthur asks Merlin about his birth, Merlin tells him his father had an affair with an enemy's queen, and that it was he who arranged the tryst. The enemy's queen turns out to be Igraine who is at Camelot and tells Arthur she has always loved him from afar. Morgan along with King Lot show up at the castle, and tells everyone that she is the only legitimate heir and Igraine says it is true. Morgan offers Arthur a way out of this before anyone gets hurt. Arthur says that he is the King now and that he is not giving up his throne. Morgan promises war and death to Arthur and to anyone who stands in her way. |

|ShortSummary = Arthur meets Guinevere, the woman of his dreams. Morgan and King Lot conspire to attack Camelot and take the throne. Merlin has Arthur reclaim the legacy sword in the stone, known here as the sword of Mars, to prove his worthiness as king. It is hinted at that Merlin has rigged the contest in advance so that only one who first pushes the sword in can then pull it out, while he suggests to Arthur that this is how to retrieve the sword. Merlin uses Arthur's success as propaganda to inspire loyalty to Arthur. |

|ShortSummary = Merlin sets off on a journey to find a sword suitable for a king by seeking out a legendary sword-maker, Caliburn, giving him details about Arthur's physique and fighting style to ensure that the sword is suited to him. After the sword is crafted, Merlin accidentally kills the sword-maker. His daughter, Excalibur, runs and rows out to the middle of a lake into which she plans to throw the sword as revenge. Merlin casts a spell causing the surface of the water to freeze and walks out to her. Losing her balance, Excalibur falls into the lake and drowns as the ice forms above her. In an attempt to save herself she uses the sword to punch a small hole through the ice, her hand emerging from the lake clutching it. Merlin takes the sword from her hand, but is unable to break through the ice layer to save her. Merlin lies to Arthur about how he obtained the sword, which he names Excalibur in honour of the sword-maker's daughter. Merlin's deceptive account resembles the traditional Arthurian legend of "the Lady in the Lake". A conversation with Guinevere changes Arthur and he begins to assert his power by sparring with Leontes. Arthur is frustrated that he can't be with Guinevere, and, in his grief, neglects his duties towards his warriors. |

|ShortSummary = Morgan convices Igraine that she is just hallucinating and escapes Camelot now in her (Morgan's) form. When Merlin and Igraine confront Morgan at her castle about this, she and her followers arrest them. She then anonymously stages a raid at Bardon Pass, hoping that Arthur will be inadequate to stop it, positioning her to become acknowledged as the better ruler of Camelot, and proceeds to travel to Camelot with her new prisoners, Merlin and Igraine. Leontes confronts Guinevere about her relationship to Arthur, and then confronts Arthur about it. During the battle Kay is shot by a arrow, becoming in desperate need of medical attention. Arthur and his friends realize that the only way that they will succeed is if one of them stays behind. Arthur volunteers, and his friends depart the battle grounds, and Arthur prepares for a full out battle to the death with Morgans army. |

|ShortSummary = Morgan's plan to overthrow Arthur is exposed. However, the nun Sybil takes credit for Morgan's treasonous schemes, claiming she planned everything and Morgan knew nothing about it. Sybil is executed, and while the public accepts this story, Arthur and Merlin are not deceived. Leontes dies protecting Arthur at Bardon Pass and Igraine is killed by Morgan. Arthur strips Morgan of the name and banner of Pendragon and says her castle is no longer protected. Morgan visits Sybil's grave and, upon hearing a voice telling her to bear a child, disguises herself as Guinevere and has sex with Arthur. |
