Summary
Merlin had been given a choice.
Admitting the truth about what Morgause had said, admitting that Uther was indeed responsible for the Purge and Ygraine's death would have meant freedom for Merlin and for all those who had magic.
But Arthur would suffer.
Lying about the truth, lying about what Uther had done, once again covering the king from the consequences of his own actions… it would have spared Arthur the pain of losing another parent. It would save Uther, a man who had never had compassion for anything or anyone, once again.
It would make Arthur hate magic once and for all.
Make Arthur hate Merlin, the profound nature of what Merlin was, forever.
