"I guess it's a little like sorcery that way, though. It's very hard to harm a sorcerer if he sees you coming, and even low level spells can seriously injure people. My master taught me to be very cautious with my power, and to serve in any way I could." He trails off with a little frown, because there really is a fine line between the mentality Merlin impressed upon him and, as he said, forcing submission by guilt and by duty.
