When Merlin arrived at Camelot he was naive about his purpose and who he Is. All that he knew was that he has magic. What that being said, he did not know enough to embrace all his power. It's all about confidence and the wisdom to know who you really are. Being young and not having someone like his father to tell him from the very beginning kept him from knowing his true power. Until now Merlin has been in the dark and now that he is in the light he can wield his full power. He is the magic -- if he is magic itself no one or anything can take it away.
