merlin broken fanfiction

The term 'merlin broken fanfiction' is rather open - ended. It could be that the fanfiction explores a 'broken' Merlin, perhaps one who has lost his faith, his powers, or his sense of purpose. For example, the story could be set after a great tragedy in Camelot where Merlin feels completely broken and the fanfiction delves into his journey to heal or find a new path.

You can try searching on popular fanfiction websites like Archive of Our Own (AO3) or FanFiction.net. Just type in 'merlin broken' in the search bar and see what comes up.

Well, it could be a story about Merlin trying to hide his broken ribs while still performing his duties. Maybe he's worried that if Arthur finds out, he'll be restricted from doing certain tasks.

The plot could develop with Merlin gradually getting worse. His broken ribs might prevent him from using his magic effectively. For example, when he tries to cast a spell, the pain from his ribs could cause him to lose focus and the spell could go awry.

In a more humorous take on the 'Merlin tied to a bed' fanfiction, it could be that Merlin has fallen ill and the overly - protective Gaius has tied him to the bed to make sure he rests. Merlin, being the active person he is, complains constantly. Arthur comes to visit and teases Merlin about finally being still for once. Meanwhile, Merlin tries to convince Arthur to let him loose, promising that he'll be fine. Eventually, Gaius relents and unties Merlin, who then immediately starts bustling around the room.

It could be for comedic effect to lighten the mood and add some fun to the story.

If Merlin died in the fanfiction, it could trigger a series of tragic events. The balance of power could tip, and the villains might seize the opportunity to attack. It could also bring out hidden strengths in the remaining characters as they try to cope with the loss.

One more idea is that Merlin is tied to the bed in a dream - like state created by an ancient magic. In this dream world, he is faced with his deepest fears and insecurities. His friends in the real world notice his strange behavior and try to wake him up. Merlin, while in the dream, has to find the source of the magic that is binding him and break free. Through his inner strength and the memories of his friends, he manages to do so and wakes up, having learned more about himself and his magic.

If Merlin is a Dark Lord in fanfiction, it could be an interesting exploration of the 'nature vs. nurture' concept. Maybe he turned dark because of the constant fear of being discovered and persecuted for his magic. His actions as a Dark Lord might include taking over Camelot or exacting revenge on those who wronged him in the past. It gives a whole new perspective on his character.

One possible reason could be a magical curse. In many Merlin fanfictions, magic is often used as a plot device. A dark sorcerer might cast a spell on Merlin to make him forget certain things, perhaps to prevent him from using his powerful magic to oppose them. Another reason could be a self - imposed forgetting due to trauma. Merlin has witnessed and endured a great deal of pain and suffering. To protect his own mental state, his mind might subconsciously block out certain memories.
