As Merlin lay dying, he gave Balthazar his dragon ring, saying it would guide him to the child who would one day grow to be Merlin's successor, the Prime Merlinean.
Merlin je na samrti dao Balthazaru svoj zmajski prsten rekavši kako će ga on voditi do djeteta koje će jednoga dana odrasti u Merlinova nasljednika Prvoga Merlinca.
