The 'Merlin Reader' in future fanfiction could potentially be a reader of the future who has some sort of connection to the Merlin legend. Maybe this character has the power to read ancient texts related to Merlin that hold the key to some future event. Or perhaps they can read the minds of characters from the Merlin story in a new and different future setting.
The Merlin Reader might be curious. In future fanfiction, they could be constantly seeking more knowledge about Merlin, whether it's about his magic, his relationships, or his role in history. This curiosity could drive their actions and decisions throughout the story. Also, they could be somewhat of an outcast, as their obsession with Merlin might not be fully understood by others in their futuristic society.
Merlin's relationship with Arthur could become even stronger. They might have more adventures together and truly become equals in their fight for Camelot. Their bond could be tested, but in the end, it would only grow deeper.
Well, one prediction could be that Merlin discovers a new form of magic. Maybe he'll find an ancient spell book that has been lost for centuries. This could lead him on a journey to master this new magic, which might be different from the magic he already knows. He could face challenges along the way, like dealing with other wizards who are jealous of his discovery.
Merlin is usually very empathetic. He'll listen to the reader's problems without judgment. In some fanfictions, he might share his own secrets and fears to make the reader feel less alone. He'll also do practical things, like bringing the reader food or making sure they have a warm place to stay if they're in a difficult situation. He'll try to show the reader that there are always options and that life is worth living.
Well, the theme of destiny is quite common. Fanfiction often plays with Merlin's pre - ordained role in Camelot's future and how he might change or fulfill it. Also, the struggle between good and evil is a frequent theme. Merlin is usually at the center of this struggle, either fighting against dark magic or trying to redeem those who have fallen to the dark side. And the theme of self - discovery for Merlin is also seen a lot. As he grows in power, he also discovers more about himself and his place in the world.
They might have a tense encounter. Given their past history in the original story, Merlin could be cautious. Maybe Morgana has changed in the future, but Merlin still has his doubts. He might be on guard, ready to use his magic if needed.
Their relationship could be more complex. Instead of the straightforward enmity of the past, they might be forced to cooperate due to new circumstances. So, it's no longer just about good vs. evil.
Seeing the future can create a sense of dread or hope, depending on what they see. If they see Camelot's downfall, they'll be filled with dread and work hard to prevent it. But if they see a prosperous future, they might become overconfident. Also, it can change their relationships. A character who was once carefree might become overly cautious if they see a dangerous future.
