Prime Merlinean Rank/Title in Your Inner Child Series: World Mythology of Ancient Power | World Anvil

Prime Merlinean

The Prime Merlinean is the last-living direct blood descendant of Myrddin Ambrosius Wyllt/Emrys AKA Merlin. And yet he also is called by another name, The Chosen Saviour of Ancient Power. He is possibly The Guardian of Belief. But none is confirmed. It is thought that if it is true, The Prime Merlinean will be the newest member and the last Guardian if he is a Guardian at all.  
Anceint Sorcerer, maybe Merlin, from long ago    
As The Legendary Guardians of Childhood cannot say, here is what has been agreed by our thirteen members. The Guardians of Childhood decree that whoever is the Prime Merlinean will be welcomed with open hearts. He shall be welcome to sit with us.
    It is also said that when he comes into the world that he is limited in power. Although certain circumstances being what they may, it could theoretically increase his powers giving him more abilities.  

Appointment

When the Prophecy of Power and Prophecy and Prophecy of Magic Returning came known, each Guardian knew that whoever it was for was a powerful being and a Chosen One.  

Prime Merlinean Responsibilities

Guardians are responsible for two things. Firstly, the amount of Belief of Ancient Power. The second thing is for the protection of Humankind and the children. And like all guardians, these responsibilities are even more important for the Prime Merlinean!  

Prime Merlinean Duties

Each Guardian has a duty to the mortal world AKA Humankind!     One type of duty is called official congressional conferences. In the bi-annual meetings of heads of state, both the Legendary Guardians of Childhood and The Collective Congress of Ancient Power are official conferences or congressional sessions that require Guardians to attend.     Another type of duty is called engagements. These engagements vary greatly, from visiting other mystical realms, to welcoming visiting Heads of State, to doing anything with the community, hosting/performing ceremonies, and anything else asked of them.     One of these ceremonies is the Ceremony of Litha/Summer Solstice Ceremony, which would be his duty. His duty, overall, is to renew and strengthen diplomatic bonds and also hosting and taking diplomatic visits to other realms.  

Apparel/Clothing & Equipment

The Prime Merlinean Outfit consists of a wizarding robe of Blue and Green and Yellow that is of ancient Celtic Welsh design. His feet are covered by brown boots. This was used for official State Functions and Occasions.   He also has a rainbow wizarding robe for State and Official Occasions.   The Prime Merlinean also has Merlin’s Ancient Magic Staff.  
Ancient Sorcerer Mriddin Ambrosius Wyllt/Emerys  

Historical Basis

Myrddin Ambrosius Wyllt/Emrys (commonly called Merlin in English) is an ancient sorcerer that lived in Camelot, Island of Albion. He was an extraordinarily powerful mystical being of King Arthur’s Court and of Camelot Royalty. Myriddin was alive when the mystical species lived in harmony with Humankind. And it was him that Earth's Spirit of Ancient Power spoke too. The Spirit knew about Merlin's personality. Myrddin (AKA Merlin) soon knew that he would have work to do.   He was there on multiple occasions when King Arthur first took steps to shed blood and to cause fear on his way to be malevolent instead of benevolent. Myrddin has an odd feeling after the "visiting dignitary" incident. And this also caused King Arthur to evaluate himself and what kind of king he wants to be.   As the end of Camelot nears, Merlin (along with Morgana, King Arthur and Queen Guinevere's ghost) go to a place of great power where they communed with Earth’s Mystical Spirit of Ancient Power. It was in this place that all four ask the spirit to ensure some person, in the future, kept the virtues of the Light in his heart and succeed Merlin as Supreme Sorcerer of Ancient Power.     This oath would later lead to two eventual future prophecies.
