Quote #10

"[…] I shall take him out of the King's reach, and keep him and teach him all that Galapas taught me, and Ambrosius, and you, even Belasius. He will be the sum of all our lives, and when he is grown he will come back and be crowned King at Winchester." (V.10.69)

Merlin makes this promise to a dying Cadal. His old servant and friend just needs to know that his life (and death) weren't just for some prank, or so that the woman-crazy Uther could hook up with another beauty. By promising to pass on Cadal's wisdom to the king to come, Merlin ensures that Cadal's legacy will also live on.
