Thanks! 😊
Re: thinking it’s Merlin, there’s a Word of Jim that it’s confirmed not to be Merlin. Hence me thinking about Arthur. I’ll see if I can find it.
The_Sibelis:
The more I think about it, the more likely it's Lancelot... He supposedly grew up on Avalon which is paralleled to DR, and he would be the one who survived and became a shadow of remorse for his actions. Even his name, Lancelot Du Lac, of the lake.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Lancelot was French.

he originated in a French writing, not quite the same, he was also considered a later version of a Celtic hero, or a God of thunder and lightning, which would give him the all important parallels that Harry has to others.
He's also quite well known for having gone mad...
Logistics515:
I personally agree that Arthur is probably the likeliest candidate, with Merlin being disavowed by WoJ.
Presumably, Arthur would have a bit of a language barrier, but then we have the whole 'Piss Off' comment, like a guy trying out a slang term he's unfamiliar with. With Merlin apparently running through time all over the place, picking up a language and filling in Arthur on it doesn't seem too convoluted. Particularly if Merlin had some long-term plan in motion.
Another thing I noticed is right after Harry interacts with the British Figure, he suddenly gets a Parasite Headache, that takes an unusually long period of time to be resolved by Demonreach. The paranoid side of me wonders if that may have been deliberate on the part of "Alfred", to throw Harry off of too much investigation into an area that might have endangered Merlin's planning.
