One aspect of 'Merlin the Poisoned Chalice' fanfiction could be the exploration of Merlin's character in this particular scenario. It might show his inner strength and loyalty as he faces the danger of the poisoned chalice.
Fanfiction in this area can be unique because it allows for different interpretations of the characters' emotions. For example, it can show Merlin's fear in a more detailed way when he's faced with the poisoned chalice, rather than just a brief moment in the original. Also, it can give other characters like Gwen or Morgana different roles in the story related to this event.
In a Merlin Poisoned Chalice fanfiction, their relationship can be developed in multiple ways. For instance, during Arthur's illness due to the poison, Merlin could be constantly by his side, and they could have some heart - to - heart conversations that they never had before. Arthur might start to question Merlin's loyalty and Merlin could prove it in a very emotional way. Also, when Arthur recovers, he could be more protective of Merlin, knowing that Merlin risked everything to save him. This could lead to a more brotherly - like relationship where they look out for each other. And perhaps, they could start to share their dreams and fears more openly, which would strengthen their connection even more.
One idea could be exploring the consequences if Merlin had been unable to find a cure for the poisoned chalice in time. Maybe Arthur's death would have led to a power struggle in Camelot, and Merlin would have to navigate through it while mourning his friend. Another plot could involve a twist where the poison was not what it seemed, and it was actually a magical test set by an ancient sorcerer to see if Merlin was worthy of his powers. The third idea might be that Merlin, in his desperation to save Arthur, makes a deal with a dark entity that has unforeseen and dangerous implications for Camelot in the long run.

It could be Morgana. She has been known to be an antagonist and has a vendetta against Camelot and those associated with it. Poisoning Merlin would be a way to weaken Arthur's most powerful ally.
Well, one possibility is that Merlin's friends, like Arthur, might search desperately for a cure. They could go on a dangerous quest to find a rare herb or consult a powerful sorcerer who might know how to save him. Another could be that Merlin, while poisoned, has strange visions or dreams that give him clues about his true destiny or the future of Camelot.
