MORGAN

Empress of the Wilderness, Queen of the Damsels, Lady of the Isles, and Governor of the Waves of the Great Sea.

There was a King in Tír na nÓg, the island paradise, the Land of the Young. This king had three daughters. They all had great destinies laid in front of them. Stories yet untold but prophecied.

Morgana was one of them. Her fate? To be ward to King Uther. Under pretense of being a friend's daughter, she spent her childhood under the tyrannical hand of a man who hated everything she stood for. Growing up with Arthur Pendragon, attended by Guinevere, she made of it what she could.

Until she found her sister, Morgause. Betrayed by the people of Camelot, she left with her kin instead. With her, she learnt the seven arts, specializing in healing, astronomy and mathematics. She learnt of her background as a nymph, sea-born, powerful witch. And she took the newfound knowledge to fight against the perceived injustices of Camelot.

Uther had prohibited magic. Under penalty of death. Something one was born with, something you could not control was enough to be a target in his eyes. Communities destroyed, species obliterated, books burnt... How could one stand by and not act?

So Morgana and her sisters did their best to put a stop to their bloodbath, even through battles of their own.

Battle of Camlann, the bloodiest battle of them all. The one where King Arthur fell. Where Morgana was mortally wounded. Or so they say.

With her last breaths, she brought the one she once considered a brother back to her home, to the land of life, an island of apples away from mortal time: Avalon.

There, she found a small home once again. Teacher to the other nymphs, queen of the aos sí.

She is seen before battles, washing bloody armours on the bank of the river. She is called upon before them, begged for assistance. She is a crow flying over their heads, leading the armies. She is the crying voice, mourning every life lost.
