A/N: I don't normally post notifications of new stories like this, but I thought since you all were freely asking for a sequel to this story, you might like to know that I've given in to your many requests. Common Knowledge is now the first of a string of oneshots entitled theCompilation of Knowledge. The first of the three sequels I have planned is called Unexpected Knowledge and it has already been posted - you can find it on my profile. There will also, later, be a multi-chaptered companion piece entitled Knowledge of Friends which will explain how each of Merlin's friends discovered his magic and their individual reasons for keeping his secret.

Thanks for your time! Now go read the sequel! :)
