Uther finally dies and Arthur takes the throne. Percival was stabbed through the shoulder by an axe Uther made fly at him, presumably because Percival is not of noble blood. He was then killed by soldiers after she helped him to escape from the dungeons. Knowing that the spell would not end naturally until the wraith had killed Uther, Merlin had the Great Dragon burnish a sword with his fire to create a weapon that could kill the wraith, forging Excaliber.

Gaius (portrayed by Richard Wilson) is Camelot's court physician and Merlin's guardian and mentor.

The mysterious creature becomes Merlin's mentor in magic, telling he is destined to be Arthur's protector as he unites the land of Albion. This was revealed in Season 5 Episode 7 when Arthur meets with him and an enchanted Guinevere commissions him to kill Arthur for her, since the skill of his men and his hatred of Morgana makes him the perfect unwitting accomplice. In each of these situations, Merlin was able to save Arthur, and was even aided by Gawain during the incident in "The Eye of the Phoenix". When they arrived at the Isle, however, Lancelot willingly took Merlin's place, both to fulfill the promise he'd made to Gwen and also to keep Merlin alive, who was Arthur's chief and most effective protector.

Later, in the episode, "Queen of Hearts", Arthur stated that he would give up his right to the throne of Camelot for her after Gwen was framed by Morgana for witchcraft. Gaius himself used to practice sorcery - a fact that Uther is aware of, although he is satisfied that Gaius has forsaken his old magical abilities. In the premiere episode of the fourth series, "The Darkest Hour", Lancelot still held his position as a knight and was one of those who accompanied Arthur in the quest to close the veil between the realms of the living and the dead, which had been torn open by Morgana in her quest for revenge against Camelot. This reconciliation did not initially last, however, and in "The Sword in the Stone, Part Two", Arthur dismissed her, calling it "a moment of weakness." In the episode "The Lady of Lake," fans got to see Merlin fall in love with Freya. Manipulated by Agravaine, Arthur eventually discovered Lancelot and Gwen in a passionate embrace.

She may have perished along with the rest of her family in the destruction. Alator realises from Gaius' words that Merlin is destined to unite the lands of Albion and bring peace to all those with magic and that Morgana is only destined to bring about darkness and tyranny to the land. Morgana's trust in Merlin and Arthur was such that she was a driving force in helping Merlin and Arthur stop a plague from spreading in the kingdom, and she also helped Merlin save his village from bandits, in defiance of Uther's orders not to get involved. The Dolma (portrayed by Colin Morgan) is one of two characters who Merlin uses as a disguise (the other is Dragoon The Great).

He and Merlin (and Gawain, who joined them later) briefly gained the Cup, but it was taken from them while they fled from Cenred's men. Then, while Uther was incapacitated, Morgause invaded Camelot with the army of her ally, Cenred, a king of a neighboring kingdom. He was visibly devastated when Uther sentenced her death, but after Gwen was saved by Merlin disguised as an old sorcerer who took responsibility for a poultice planted in Arthur's bed, Arthur and Gwen agreed to keep their relationship secret for the moment. He was then forced to run when Uther's soldiers pursued him there, and he left before learning that Hunith was pregnant with Merlin.

Sigan then unleashed a raven-like monster (Sigan's name meaning 'raven' in the language of the Old Religion) and animated the citadel's gargoyles to destroy Camelot. Lancelot noticed this and decided to leave, considering Arthur more worthy of Gwen's hand. However, her plan was more complex, for she spares him- but requires him to travel to her domain and face another challenge, at a later date (which he accepts, despite Uther's adamant refusal); she also implies she knew his mother, the late Ygraine- which only serves to make Arthur more willing to seek her out again. They are later ambushed by Saxons, and a fight starts. Once free from the Sidhe's influence, Elena was still willing to go through with marrying Arthur, for the sake of her father's wishes, but when Arthur asked if she was genuinely in love with him, she confirmed that she was not.

Gwen accepted this, but also realises that she cannot be Arthur's queen. He is often called upon to get Merlin out of trouble or to remind him not to be reckless with the use of magic. Annis is ultimately a very just and fair woman, but also spontaneous and extreme in her actions, forgiving Arthur his misjudgement and homicide unusually quickly, withdrawing her army and restoring the peace contract that Uther originally signed with her father-in-law and refused to cooperate further with Morgana. | She hires Alator of the Catha and orders him to kidnap Gaius who is forced to tell Alator that Merlin is Emrys.

The dying king tells Merlin that he is thankful for everything he has done — something which Arthur had never said before. The man tells Merlin of Arthur's bane which he says "stalks him like a ghost", before showing him a vision. However, she didn't understand Uther’s hatred for magic, and did not favour his reaction of killing those with magic. (One has to wonder how he was able to determine this). Along with Kilgarragh the Great Dragon, Aithusa is the only other living dragon left in existence. Thus, the Great Dragon's prophecy of Mordred and Morgana 'uniting in evil' finally comes to pass. After returning to Camelot, Arthur gathered together a group of knights to make a final assault in the hope of defeating the dragon, even over Uther's protests.
