I agree! If you watch The? Arthurs bane part 1? it is like a wrestle of control between the two men (Arthur wants to continue his quest Merlin wants them to turn back). Merlin has become more of an advisor. I think he is still a servant as it allows many interactive scenes and is generally easier! I think if we get season 6 Merlin should have at least become an advisor (he can still be Arthurs servant) I had an idea that Gaius can retire and Merlin takes his place as court physician (Gauis job seems to be a mix between healing people and advising Arthur)
