Description:
We first see Merlin as a madman alleged to be cursed with the gift of prophecy. He is sent for by Uther Pendragon, who desires his supernatural counsel in order to enact a plan to sate his lust for the wife of his enemy, thus setting in motion the story of the conception of the once and future King Arthur and his rise as the ruler of the kingdom we now know as Camelot.

But this is Merlin's story. Set against those oft-told legends we see a tale that unlocks the secrets of the magician's past and the reason for his supernatural powers and his pivotal role in the destiny of both men and gods. As Merlin unlocks Arthur's potential, he unlocks his own as well, discovering his previous identity as the great god Jove who was brought down by Wotan and who is destined to be brought down by the new god of the Holy Grail by the blade of the Sword of the Spirit Excalibur. As the tale unfolds, Merlin comes to understand his true self and embraces the inevitability of the fall of the gods and the end of magic in the realm of men.
