Storyline

Taking Excalibur by force translates a violent, tyrannical King Arthur and his witch adviser Mab to Hercules' time, and a young Merlin asks Hercules to come to Britannia. Mab coaches Arthur to get Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake. When Hercules and Morrigan capture Arthur, Mab takes Merlin back to the castle and discovers he hasn't learned to be a sorcerer yet. When Hercules and Morrigan rescue Merlin, Arthur discovers Mab was just using him to get Excalibur. Written by mama.sylvia
