Arthur Watches Merlin

Age of Empires: From Training Militia

On the global launch day of Age of Empires IX, an ordinary gamer named Arthur unexpectedly finds himself transported into a medieval-style fantasy world. Here, swords clash with schemes, and blood meets iron. No longer the player controlling the battlefield, Arthur is reduced to the lowest rung of the feudal hierarchy—a humble knight’s squire. At first, he resigns himself to his fate, ready to live a quiet, unremarkable life. But destiny has other plans. A mysterious "data interface" appears before him, offering a glimpse of hope and the possibility of rising above his station. Starting with nothing but a ragtag militia, Arthur begins to build his own army, expand his territory, and embark on an epic journey to become the ruler of an empire. But the challenges in this land are far greater than he ever imagined. Barbarian raids, pirate invasions, the curse of undead knights, and the roar of dragons—every battle is fraught with danger. Yet the most dangerous enemies aren’t on the battlefield. They lurk in the shadows of the court. Loyalty can be bought. Oaths can be broken. And the price of glory is often paid in blood. To survive, Arthur must rely on his unique abilities, sharp intellect, and unyielding ambition to overcome every obstacle in his path. From an unknown nobody to a legendary lord, Arthur must navigate the treacherous game of power, one calculated step at a time, and carve out his own legacy. A symphony of adventure, growth, and strategy at its peak. The wheels of fate have begun to turn, and Arthur Grayson’s age of empire is only just beginning…

Mordred's Rebirth

This story is kind of based on the Arthurian legend. ******* He was called many things. Bastard, the False King, The Traitor, Treacherous Knight. Sir Mordred was a villain, one who according to the prophecy of the grand wizard Merlin, would destroy the kingdom of King Arthur Pendragon. And he did but at the cost of his life. As he lay dying on the bloody ground of Camlann after the mighty clash between him and Arthur, a bloody tear fell down his face. All he wanted was to be acknowledged by his father but all the things he did eventually led to disaster. Now with death’s cold hands grasping him, he hoped for a short peace before the fiery rings of hell. But that was not the end of his journey. ******* “Hold up.” “What is that infernal noise?” “Oh my goodness! It's driving me crazy! And it's not stopping!” Mordred sprang awake, slamming his fist on the digital alarm clock on the nightstand. 'What in Merlin's Beard is happening!?', he thought when he realized something. Well, a lot of things. First of all. How the heck is he alive? Second. What is a digital alarm? That's when memories that didn't belong to him flooded his head. They felt familiar but everything was wrong. How the heck is Morgan Le Fay his sister? She was his aunt! And how is the wizard Merlin so young! “Oh. I get it now”. He, Sir Mordred has been reborn in the body of a different version of himself, in a modern and futuristic world where he is the youngest son of Arthur Pendragon. But even in this world, He is the hated son of the High King. "Now what?", Mordred realized that the world he is in now is different from his previous one, with the only familiar details being the names of the people he knew. “Oh? Are you still reading?” Mordred smiled, looking at the readers. “Well, how about you join me on this new crazy journey in a crazy new world of heroes, villains, monsters, and even gods?” “Are you ready?” "Let's go!" ********************************************** The story is loosely based on the Arthurian legend. I am only using the popular names but the plot is different. The story is purely fictional with a few things from the actual legend being incorporated along with some stuff from other popular works. The characters may have different personalities from the original ones from the legend. There will also be names that may seem quite familiar as well. The cover image doesn't belong to me.

Chronicles of the Ethereal Veil

Merlin Asher was a young man who died in another world, only to awaken in the quiet heart of Storshallow—a city of whispered cults, mechanical wonders, and ancient secrets best left unspoken. Bound to a new identity and equipped with the memories of the body he now inhabits, Merlin strives to fit seamlessly into the life of a modest boarding-house assistant, concealing the extraordinary circumstances of his arrival. As he carries out his daily tasks and navigates the delicate expectations of Mistress Halewick’s establishment, he becomes increasingly aware that Storshallow’s elegant streets and tidy facades hide shadows far older and deeper than he first imagined. When a traveling scholar named Master Wintrell arrives, seeking forbidden knowledge in one of the city’s most enigmatic repositories—the Eightfold Library—Merlin is drawn further into a subtle web of mysteries. Fragments of occult symbols and unsettling echoes from the boarding house cellar suggest that the hum of everyday routine conceals a realm of hidden artifacts, strange deities, and grand cosmic machinations. Caught between his unassuming role and a burning need to understand the secret currents of this new world, Merlin sets forth on a journey of quiet inquiry, determined to unravel the truth without attracting the wrong kind of attention. In a land where the holy and the horrifying sometimes share the same shrines, Merlin must tread carefully, forging a new destiny before the Ethereal Veil that lies beyond human sight swallows him whole.

The Reign of the Lost Kingdom: Australis Unbound"

Title: "The Reign of the Lost Kingdom: Australis Unbound" Summary: In a fractured world where ancient monarchies and forgotten bloodlines shape the fate of nations, King Arthur Saxe-Coburg, a young ruler descended from both gods and kings, finds himself thrust into the heart of a deadly power struggle. The kingdom of Australis, once a mighty and united realm, now stands divided. The once harmonious alliance between Australia and New Zealand has crumbled, leaving both nations at the mercy of rival factions and ancient, unspoken feuds. As the heir to a lost legacy, Arthur is the last hope for reuniting the fractured lands under one rule. But the path to reclaiming the throne is fraught with betrayal, mystery, and a hidden power that lies dormant within his veins. Arthur’s bloodline carries secrets that even he has yet to fully comprehend—secrets that could either heal or destroy the lands he is destined to rule. With each step, he uncovers the weight of his ancestors’ actions, and soon realizes that his destiny is not his own but shaped by forces much older than the kingdoms themselves. At his side stands Celeste Beaumont, an intelligent and compassionate woman whose family’s deep roots in mysticism and ancient history offer both guidance and peril. Her mother, a revered historian, and her father, a renowned psychologist, provide Celeste with a unique understanding of both human nature and the powerful, enigmatic forces at play. Their bond is built on mutual respect, understanding, and an unwavering sense of loyalty, but even their connection is tested by dark forces intent on pulling them apart. Among those who threaten Arthur’s reign are those closest to him—Adrianna Agreste, a former ally whose obsession with him has turned into a dangerous and consuming passion, and Lila, a twisted force of destruction driven by jealousy and a desire for power. Together, they will stop at nothing to bring Arthur to his knees, even as they plot the downfall of Celeste, whose very existence is a threat to their dark ambitions. As tensions rise, the line between friend and foe blurs. King Arthur Saxe-Coburg must navigate treacherous political landscapes, the ever-growing weight of leadership, and a love that is both a blessing and a curse. Every choice he makes could either bind the nations together in unity or tear them apart forever. The gods watch from afar, and Arthur’s bloodline may hold the key to both salvation and ruin. In the end, the greatest test may not come from external forces, but from the darkest corners of his own heart. Arthur must confront the truth of his lineage and the ancient powers that seek to control him—and in doing so, decide whether he is the hero his people need, or the king who will bring their downfall. Themes: Royalty, destiny, and the weight of legacy The unification of divided lands torn by ancient feuds Forbidden love, obsession, and betrayal The battle for control over mystic powers and divine bloodlines The personal cost of leadership and sacrifice This version dives deeper into the complexities of Arthur's lineage, the forces he faces, and the personal struggles that define his journey.
