Morgana and Merlin

One

This story is dedicated to Katie McGrath for portraying Morgana so well and for being an all round amazing actress!!!

Also, if you like this story, have a listen to Demons by Jasmine Thomson (a cover of Demons by Imagine Dragons)! It's a beautiful song and really fits to Morgana's story!!!

I am not a good person. Not at all. I realise that now, but it's too late to turn back. My name is Morgana Pendragon, daughter of Uther and sister of King Arthur. I found that out not too long ago. I thought my father was a brave and honourable man, a warrior, but no. He was Uther. A merciless and rash King.

When I was but a child, I was orphaned. My "father" died in battle, and my mother died when she gave birth to me. Uther adopted me. I remember him being such a kind and gentle man, I loved him, but then he had Arthur.

His wife was barren, so he got a Sorceress to help her give birth. But she died. She died when giving birth to Arthur. That... changed Uther. He repelled magic, killed the Sorceress' family and turned her against him. He turned many people against him.

Arthur ruined everything. This is why I hate him. Well, not just for that. Arthur was always the heir to the throne, obviously. But really, I am. I am older than Athur, so I am the rightful Queen of Camelot! Of course, Uther would never hear of this.

Long story short, I rebelled, broke his heart and revealed my magic to him. Yes, I'm a sorceress.

There is a Sorcerer named "Emeres" who is apparently my destiny, and my doom. He came to me in a dream, as an old man. It terrified me. The thought of one old man, destroying me is... horrible. Not to mention fairly embarrassing!

  I know who he is. Merlin. Arthur's serving boy. He always was very loyal and selfless... I felt that Arthur took him for granted, he probably still does, being King hasn't changed much.

  Obviously, there is more to Merlin that meets the eye. I should fear him but I... can't. I just can't. You see, for a very small amount of time, I was in love with him. He helped me save an innocent druid boy, I saw this really sweet and kind man. He knew it wasn't right, that this boy would be punished for the way he was born. I suppose he understood that more than I realised.

Anyway, as I said, I can't be afraid of him. It's impossible. I need to be. Fear drives me on. I need to be prepared to fight.
