Enchanting an amulet that will reverse any life-saving magic that may be used, she sends Agravaine to ensure that the plan works. Morgana, however, has other plans and, thanks to Agravaine keeping her posted on all the happenings in Camelot, she plans to attack the kingdom after she has sealed the fate of the King. Nothing can possibly go wrong, despite the raised eyebrow that Gaius gives him. Merlin leaps on the opportunity to save the day, despite Gaius’ protestations, and plans to use his famed aging spell to once again impersonate an old wizard, deceive Arthur, revive Uther and save the day. Gaius pronounces that the King is close to death and nothing can be done to revive him, leaving Arthur distraught and turning to magic in order to save his father, despite knowing what Uther thought about the very thing that led to the death of Arthur’s mother.
His attempt to kill Arthur is thwarted by Uther, though the King is wounded and his life hangs in the balance.
Of course, things never go well when someone visits Camelot, and it turns out The Gleeman is actually an assassin who just so happens to have a circus in tow.
