The episode begins with a young man injured and limping through the Darkling Woods being pursued by a group of Camelot’s Knights, meanwhile Morgana arrives and watches the young man being pursued by the Knights, eventually one manages to intercept him and he uses magic to blast him aside. As the man is caught up by the Knights, Morgana interferes blasting the Bandits aside and finding the young man who has fallen too the floor unconscious.





Meanwhile in Camelot, a mysterious Healer called Ronald arrives in Camelot claiming that he knows off a remedy that might help ease Uther’s pain and possibly help return him into his former self, Arthur is at first unsure whether to believe the Healer at first, claiming that he had been fooled by a Physician offering aide before, however he agrees to help after he explains his remedy which Gaius agrees might work if done correctly so Arthur agrees to allow the healer to try and heal his father. However he explains that one of the herbs needed for the potion is a Modron, a rare plant that grows in the Valley of the Fallen Kings. After considering it for a moment, Arthur decides to go and recover the plant himself.





Merlin warns Arthur afterwards that he does not trust Ronald but after a quick argument Arthur remains adamant that he will do anything to save his father.





As they are preparing to leave, Agravaine leaves the castle and travels too Morgana’s hideout where he informs her that their plans are going accordingly and reveals that Ronald is in fact in league with Morgana. He also notices the young man Morgana rescued and she explains that he has magic although Agravaine is still suspicious he returns to Camelot.





As he does so the young man wakes up and Morgana goes over to him, the man introduces himself as Accolon and explains that he was caught using his magic to stop a house fire in his village however the people including his own family accused him of being a sorcerer and had the Knights of Camelot chase him from his own home! Morgana explains that she too has been wronged by those who should love her and tells her of how Uther has treated her and how Merlin one of her closest friends had poisoned her. She then tells him that he is with a friend now and he falls back into a deep sleep.





In Camelot, Gaius questions Ronald about the Modron and asks where he had learnt the properties of such a rare herb and he lies that he is the Physician of Lord Bayard. Gaius then accuses him of being a liar as he knows of Bayard’s Physician from his past. Ronald then uses magic to blast back Gaius knocking him unconscious. Ronald then sneaks out of the city and flees quickly towards Morgana’s home to warn Morgana that he has been revealed.
