Fifty years have passed since Merlin (Sam Neill returning to the title role that earned an Emmy nomination) stepped foot behind the soaring battlements of Camelot. Time has not been kind to the Kingdom—the glory of Camelot lost after the death of King Arthur. The once verdant fields have been overtaken by the fearsome Rauskaug (Alexander Kalugin, The Chronicles of Riddick), and the villages lay in ruins. Even the once venerated Lady of the Lake (Oscar and Golden Globe nominee Miranda Richardson, Merlin) has fallen to Rauskaug’s command. Where once stood Camelot’s greatest gift and protection, the Holy Grail, is now a blackened and empty reliquary. With Merlin back, surely the return of the Grail cannot be far behind. Or so believes the charismatic Lord Weston (Garwin Sanford, Stargate: Atlantis), Lord of Camelot, and the betrothed of the beautiful Lady Yvonne (Tegan Moss, Sea People), last blood link to Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.
