----------------------------------------
He wasn't in the tavern. He wasn't in the armoury or the stables or even in the herb garden down by the training grounds. Not at Gwen's nor the kennels playing with the pups, the laundry, the kitchens. Certainly not with Gaius. And definitely not doing his chores.
It wasn't Arthur's job to find his wayward manservant. He should be running his kingdom, not chasing after the useless idiot.
When Arthur finally found him, he'd make sure Merlin would remain in the one place he couldn't escape. The stocks.
And Arthur had a cabbage ready - with Merlin's name on it.
