Most legends always made Morgana out to be evil, but here, I truly feel for her. She KNEW that wasn't her father that night. Also, that was a really sick trick Merlin and Uther played on Igraine. Especially since Igraine thought it was the spirit of her husband coming to visit her that night. Nope, just a sick individual lusting over her.
glowworm2 Honestly, this event is the reason why Morgan Le Fay's lore gets split down the middle in modern interpretations/revisions/retellings/etc. In the original myths, she and Arthur were NOT related (I'm talking the original texts by the monks Gildas and Geoffrey of Monmouth). She is simply an extremely high-ranking sorceress and also the Queen of Avalon (she may still have been Merlin's student in those versions, but I don't remember). It's only in later versions like Le Mort De Arthur which started recasting her as King Arthur's half-sister. And because she was with her mother at Tintagel when this happened (in some versions, Igraine's husband put her there because Uther's feelings for her were actually MUTUAL, and he didn't want her cheating on him), this is why Morgana's lore gets split down the middle. In half of the versions, because she knows Arthur is a bastard child born out of wedlock, she hates his guts and tries to undermine him at every turn. In the other half of the versions (the ones I actually prefer), even though she knows Arthur is technically a bastard, she doesn't care about that fact. She still loves her little brother and wants to help him in any way she can.
Also, in nearly all the versions I've seen and/or read, Morgana DOESN'T run to embrace Uther (disguised as her father). This is the point where she first displays signs that she has magic of her own, because she can actually see THROUGH Merlin's spell and see this is actually King Uther. She tries to warn her mother, but Igraine brushes her off.
It's why I like the versions of the story which feature Arthur and Morgan finding a way to reconcile, and she carries him off to Avalon after his final battle.
Whatever happened between their parents, it doesn't matter. They're siblings, and they have to work things out.
It is all kinds of sicken especially since Igraine's husband died in a war that about Uther wanting to bed the Duke's wife only for her to end up marrying him anyway.
@@kevinnorwood8782 Are you aware that she's not real?
@@kevinnorwood8782 This event didn't happen.
Just a note, Brittany isn't Britain, its a region of France; the Romans called it Armorica. Although it was culturally Brythonic, since it was basically a refuge for Celts fleeing the Saxons
Wow, not only are the channel stories great, but the comments are filled with knowledge too.
We begin from the ancient myths of Armorica
where you died or lived forevermore.
Roman remnants are combining
with the Welsh, and Celts when our tale unfolds.
Yeah, the accurate name would be Britannia, the Roman name for it that had taken root in their long occupation.
Or just Britain.
Same thing with "England". England didn't even exist yet.
For reference, it's the peninsula in the north
And that region of France was called that because of people from the British Isles, right? From Brittania
Over the centuries a large amount of ink has been expended trying to find an actual historical Arthur. This is largely due to the only near contemporary account of Britons fighting Saxons (written by Gildas) not mentioning him. However there is a body of Welsh medieval literature that portrays Arthur, not as a mortal man fighting Germanic invaders, but as a supernatural guardian figure of Britain who moves in a world of gods, magical cauldrons and fantastical adventures. In Caitlin R Green's book 'Concepts of Arthur' this line of enquiry is followed and she makes a compelling argument for him originally being a mythical figure turned later into a human king. One poem in that literature 'Preiddeu Annwfn' (Spoils of the Otherworld) is one of the most cryptic, mystical pieces you will ever read.
10 years ago I read Mary Stewart's Merlin trilogy...and then her Mordred sequel...and then the weird Holy grail spinoff. Anyway, I loved them so much, and she had an interesting take on this story that, like the general theme of her version of Arthur, tried to be grounded in realism. If any Arthur fans have never read her books, they should.
Thanks, gonna try it. If you like modern reimagining of the Arthur tales, you should try the descendants of Merlin 1 by Irene Radford!
@@sabrinapayette5198 Neat, didn't expect to actually convince someone lol. Have fun and good luck finding the 5th one, I think it was out of print even back then. Luckily it wasn't required reading, I just really wanted to experience her entire story.
Marion Zimmer Bradley’s Mists of Avalon was an amazing read on the Arthur Legends from a Morgan’s le Fey’s perspective.
Thanks for the rec, I love Arthurian stories so I'll give it aaa try.
Bernard Cornwell wrote an absolutely amazing Arthurian trilogy called The Warlord Chronicles. Give it a try, the author is amazing & the tale is phenomenal.
I recommend the Mists of Avalon series, it’s perspectives are very interesting. I’m currently on the third book and very much enjoying it.
The story of King Arthur super fun
I never heard this part of the backstory. Uther was always shown to be an honorable king from what I have seen. No wonder Morgana has such a strong hatred for Arthur. Interesting to see everything wasn't so black and white and history repeats itself in a sense with the Arthur Lancelot and Guinevere love triangle.
The world is gray
From author to poet
the tales are never the same,
some write he's ferocious,
some pen he's sincere.
One thing in our story of
this hero knight king,
he is a noble just leader
that's perfectly clear.
So everyone's just gonna ignore how evil Uther was?
Morgana isn't going to ignore it - most don't know the full story and anyway are used to evil kings - a mostly stable kingdom is a step-up.
@@MagusMarquillin I kinda feel bad I still don't know the full story, looking forward to upcoming episodes.
@@abhinavneoharysvarma8551 If you don't mind melodramatic acting, the 1981 movie Excalibur is a good, fairly accurate telling to get familiar with.
I did, but from him came the legendary son!
The infant Arthur Pendragon,
now the property of Merlin the magician.
In secret he should be raised.
These are tumultuous times throughout the land now,
and this prince could be killed, or
Enslaved!
UTHER UTHER, A SON YOU WILL BRING
UTHER PENDRAGON, YOUR LUSTS MADE A KING
Those story is better than every Netflix original ever made. Man I was there for every moment.
I couldn't agree more
I absolutely love the Arthurian Legends and can't wait to see more. The way you describe them is amazing!
Then again I am greatly unfluenced by Fate but, I really look forward to seeing the rest.
So we all read about Arthur just because Uther fought a war against his duke for a fricking woman .
I love this art, feels like reading a comic, awesome content bro!
So far so good. Please continue the Arthurian Saga from what you are recalling. It's my most favorite legend out of all
All the channels videos are great (and have been for years), but there's something special happening lately. Keep em coming 🤙
So this is King Arthur’s origin story i must say I’m amazed to learn about it
Britain = The Island.
Brittany = A place in northwest France.
My favorite👑King Arthur👑
Tyvmuch!
This story is what inspired Henry VII to name his first son.
I watched Fate series so I tried to google King Arthur but As I saw the "Historians couldn't find evidence of King Arthur's Existence, tears fell" maybe that's because I was sad I just didn't realized. Now here I am after 1 year Still obsessed with King Arthur and Finding evidence that he truly Existed. People just couldn't believe it because there are magics but I feel like there's really magic in the old days. Just like how Jesus healed people
I’ve been waiting for this! Nice job!
Wow! What an amazing backstory. I definitely see the greek hero elements in it. Arthur's father uther was a terrible person.
No, Arthur's father was not a terrible person. You are being fed lies. This is made up nonsense.
what incredible art and narration! I adore this video. :)
Looking forward for next episode
Finally things makes sense of arthurian legend
Absolutely Loved this please do more Camelot stuff! 💖
The kingdom hall stretched the length of the castle Camelot,
exceptionally grand.
They met there and at the table to sometimes eat, drink
and to speak about their dark age lands.
They often boasted of their rides and women of course,
and spoke about what adventures and quests they'll have.
Thank you for the King Arthur Story.
This is a good telling, and great art, but a channel that emphasizes History/Mythology would do well to say what their sources are for their retelling. Are you just drawing from Malory or is this an amalgamation?
I always waited for this waiting for Celtic legends let gooo!!!
I wanna see more King Arthur. Also do you think Arthur had more than one child?
@See u in history/ mythology can you make a video on Mahabharata it would be a great serie's for you, the battel between brother's, kaurava vs pandav's. Love you'r every video please keep on making it.
Yes nice idea
Or even the city of Dwarka
oh yeah that'd be interesting to hear about the Indian mythology
Ramayana would also be very naissu
You can go on and on about Mahabharat story.
Why are the worst wars over lust?
FATE fans: Wait, Arthur isn’t a chick?!
I remember the Beowulf story
Hopefully you can make one short video like this ♥️
In a land of myth and a time of magic, the destiny of a great kingdom rests on the shoulders of a young boy
Morgan Le Fay is Arthur's paternal half sister not maternal.
Ah Uther, he was thinking not with the head above his neck but the one between his legs 🙂
It is good to know that Arthur was not originally a king, but a warlord, and Merlin didn't exist in the early legends of Arthur. New people and stories were added over a long period of time and many of the stories and elements we are familiar with are only from this later era. For example, the popular Le Morte d’Arthur was published in the late 15th century, about 800 years after the first Arthur story. However, the legend of Arthur didn't develop to its full extent and in its current form until the 19th century.
Somebody get Uther the tallest glass of water in history to quench that monstrous thirst.
I think there is a similar story like this in the Bible with King David obsessing over another man's wife, and sends her husband to the front lines to die, and then adds her to his wives.
The Prophet Nathan confronts him about his actions and God sorta punishes him afterwards.
Omg i love the graphic!!!
All I know about King Arthur is that he would have made a top tier Waifu
Indeed fellow cultured man
Yes
EKUSUH KALIBAAAARRRR
I remember reading Knights of the Roundtable and that’s why this story is familiar to me
First like then watch :)
This one was perfect!
King Arthur II's Father is King Meurig. They were both Uthyr Pendragons, as was Arthur's Grandfather, Tewdrig, because that "name" is a title. This is all in the ancient Welsh records. Alan Wilson and Baram Blackett discovered the true History of King Arthur in Wales. For those interested please search for King Arthur while including the name of Alan Wilson and you'll get through YT's algorithm into the real History.
I love Helen Hollicks take on Arthur.but my fave is Bernard Cornwells warlord Trilogy. I’ve read it 5 times and had the audible books.
love this legends of Arthur and Camelot
WHEN IT SAID KING AUTHER OF CAMELOT IM LIKE “WAIT SEVEN DEADLY SINS!”
Hmm, kinda sounds like a spinoff of Helen of Troy. Never heard this story, but definitely fascinating
Good information in this video 👍🏻
I love this channel
I just found it, but yea it looks pretty nice XD
Wait, king Arthur was not a blone waifu.
she is and Morgan is also hot arthurface
Lol
According to Arthurian Legends, Arthur had blonde hair and blue eyes.
Currently reading Thomas Malory’s Le Morte D’Arthur
Merlin's voice actor is really Merlin 👍
Been hooked ever since Excalibur came out.
Wish they continued merlin
The inspiration for Arthur is thought be a man who lead the defense of a gigantic abandoned Roman fortress from Ango-Saxons, trying to protect the dying Roman ways.
Uther Pendragon, Gwen, Lancelot, The Round Table, Merlin, Camelot, etc. were all additions.
I don't know how to spell his wife's name and I don't want to look it up. My phone thought I was writing Genevieve. Gwen is a short form and it was in the TV show Merlin I think so yeah...
Man Arthurian legend is going the absolute coolest
I've listened to this entire playlist already. And I'm starting over because I'm sick of everything else on CZcams. And I'm a Camelotaholic! 😂
make for cu cuhlain, fin mac cool or freya
I'm interested in this just becausr of the Merlin BBC show.
Best video ever
Love the Arthur Legend

uThEr bAldY pEnDrAgOn
only merlin (bbc) fans will understand ;)
I love bald Uther
So I'm new to this channel
Are the visuals from a graphic novel, and if so, what's the title?
Excalibahhh
Why not just have Merlin make himself look like Igraine for a night?
More king Arthur please
Funny how the fall of the roman empire pushed Britain into an Age of Darkness. History from a Roman perspective still dominates..
What is this, a comic?
Are you going to finish the Trojan war one?
yes, but you have to wait
I’m wondering about this so many stories out there it’s hard to know what’s fictional and not
Why did you stop?????????? continue !!! i was just beginning to enjoy it
To be fair: The sagas characters cannot be villainized or romanticized, they're all complicated. Everyone is product/victim and creator of vicious circles.
King Arthur is a legitimate heir to the Roman Empire
Why is that
@@ibrahimelamrani5927 His Grandfather was 5th century Western Roman Emperor Constantine III
Wow… I didn’t know King Uther was evil in my book he was a good and noble king..
Uther really pulled a Zeus
also im Original spielt es ja im 7 Jarhundert . da sah dann doch alles etwas anders aus
@@spartanwarrior1 ich entschuldige mich, du hast recht. Deshalb war das Schwert im Stein auch entweder ein keltenschwert oder seine Spata. Hatte er nicht zwei verschiedene Schwerter? Oder irre ich mich da?
@@dominicbrandl7843 I thought he only had the Excalibur sword.
Another version says Uther sent Galois to the Frontline of war to die.
Ser Ector's son Ser Kay became the Castelan of Camelot
Yma o hyd! 🏴
"King Arthur is actually a guy. LOL
Get out of here with your history inaccuracy" - Gigguk
These stories are sick and twisted 😤
BLESSINGS
if Fate Series made me sympathetic for Morgana Le Fay, this has only cemented it
