User blog:Dryuuu/Where are all the other servants?

I've always wondered this?

Merlin is ALWAYS with Arthur. He's by Arthur's side at all the most important events. He gets the best view of everything. They're like besties. Yet Merlin's status is pretty much as low as it gets (minus the magic), and Arthur's is as high as it gets.

How come we didn't see Agravaine or the other lords' servants? And who do you think Gwen was the servant of before Arthur proposed to her?? Did she just do the cleaning and set the rooms up of all the guests etc. or was she a servant of Arthur with Merlin?

I know it doesn't matter, and Merlin's the main character, but it's funny how it works, this story of course must revolve around Merlin, but it's like, all the characters act as if he's not important but subconsciously they know he is! Do you know what I mean? (I know it's because the actors know he does) This all intrigues me, and is one of the reasons I love Merlin so much.

I hope you understand what I mean.

What do you also think would become of Merlin if he didn't become Arthur's servant? Would he still be allowed to stand by Gaius's side at important events and assemblies etc. or just stay inside Gaius's chambers, keeping out of everything? (Or doing other errands for him away from Arthur) It's cool as well how all these relationships sparked up as soon as Merlin entered Camelot.

Just imagine Camelot show without him!
