User blog comment:AgnesFlether/Merlin's Magic revealed to Morgana/@comment-4892425-20121202052358

Either way you gave is quite possible and either way is very bad for Merlin. He's going to pay a price for not coming clean. During Uther's reign remaining silent was understandable, but with Arthur on the throne, not so much. Arthur will see it as a betrayal, lying to him all these years. He certainly not going to be in the mood for an explanation, given that Gwen fell victim to sorcery. Knowing Morgana she will make sure this will get out in a very public way.
