Almost in the instant they received the news, the knights who had been staying at Tintagel set off for Ector's estate.
They had stayed here for so long just to have a chance to see the new king.

In the moment of resurrection, Merlin's figure disappeared from his original location, only to reappear five or six meters away from Arkhan, maintaining a safe distance.
