Well, that's certainly one way to end it! Here's another (which is also crack!fic, I believe):
Five hours later, Merlin finally finished his long explanation of Arthur's genealogy and the stories surrounding it.
"So, you're saying that I can trace my forbears back to some legendary Elves (I didn't even know Elves existed), some legendary Men, and thus, some legendary half-Elves, one of whom decided to live as a Man on some island that no longer exists, and then whose descendants fought evil too, like him and the rest of them, and that the Line of Lúthien will apparently never fail, and I'm descended from her and my sword is actually called Andúril and it belonged to yet another of these ancestors and then it got broken and was reforged and used yet again?"
"Yes, I believe you have the jist of it, though your summary could have been worded somewhat more elegantly."
Oh, and THANK YOU ALL so much for all the kind words!
