Its just that when someome says they are trying to stay in keeping with the traditional story and then you see the characters are not in line with the traditional story at all, it makes me think " why are they even trying to use the  traditional story as a base. They are almost making everything up LOL " ... A Merlin thats younger than King Arthur, ... LOL, Thats not in keeping with the tradition at all. LOL, It may be in line with the TV show but thats in any way in line with the traditional story either. To be fair, Merlin on Once is 1,000 years old, he just didn't age due to the immortality he got from the grail. So technically he is much older than Arthur. Yeah Thats what I was saying. In all the movies Merlin has long white hair and a long beard. OUAT and the TV shows Merlin have him looking young even though as you say hes is thousands of years old.
