"What about Mordred and Guinevere?" Harry asked.
"For a time, Mordred was welcomed into his father's castle. He told Guinevere when he was King he would need a Queen and she would serve him best by swearing him loyalty as soon as Arthur was gone. Unfortunately, war was brewing and Arthur had to leave for Gaul to fight Lucius Tiberius, a Roman Procurator who wanted to recapture Britain. As Mordred was the son of Arthur, he was left in charge of the castle. Instead, Mordred installed himself as King and invited Morgana and his men inside the castle. He then raped Guinevere daily, beating her, assaulting her, humiliating her. She was confined to the castle, unable to stop Mordred on his quest for power. He then forced her to marry him and have her break her vows to Arthur. Arthur, being an expert in war, defeated Lucius Tiberius and returned home to discover what Mordred had done. This lead to another war. Mordred had the numbers, but Arthur had experience and more seasoned men under his command. The battle was intense. It lasted all day, from dawn to dusk. In the battle, I know Mordred was fatally wounded and his army was crushed. Arthur, too, was wounded. The battle ended when Morgana and Merlin fought. Neither was able to gain the upper hand. In the end, Arthur's men proved to be better and quickly picked off Mordred's forces."
"What happened to Morgana?" Harry asked.
"I don't know. She vanished after that battle, never to be seen or heard from again, though I suspect she's still alive. She was close to gaining immortality," Morgan said.
"Wait, she's immortal?" Harry said with some concern.
"Not a true immortal. You should know that to acquire immortality is to also have a risk or a flaw that is your weakness. Voldemort's Horcruxes caused his magic to become unstable. Some forms confine you to a certain area or part of something, forever trapped in an area, but never truly able to die. In some cases, you can be immortal but remain in slumber never able to wake again. There are potions that slow aging down, but the risks of taking them are not worth it. You should know there is no such thing as a true immortal. At least, in that way," Morgan said.
"You're hiding something," Harry said. "You're immortal aren't you," Harry realized, looking at Morgan.
Morgan turned back to meet his gaze.
"Yes. I'm half human and half fairy. As fairy blood runs through my veins, I not only have powerful magic, but I am blessed, or cursed, to forever stay young. Never able to age. How I look now is how I'll look for eternity."
"Can you die?" Harry asked slowly. Morgan smiled sadly at him. "Yes, I can die. It would be difficult to kill me, but yes… I can die. Just not by age," Morgan said.
"Want to tell me why you brought me here?" Harry asked.
"To make you like me," Morgan said cryptically.
"Want to explain?" Harry asked, confused. Morgan smiled.
"In time, I will," Morgan replied as they continued to walk onwards.
"What happened to Queen Guinevere?" Harry asked when it became clear that Morgan would not elaborate.
"She never did produce an heir. Mordred broke her. Destroyed her mind and body. She was never the same even after Mordred was defeated. She sought forgiveness from Arthur, but it was he who begged for her forgiveness for failing to protect her. She eventually grew old and lived her final days in the castle in a deep depression. She lived her days out in loneliness. She would not see the lands united under one ruler as it had under Arthur. I may not have liked her, but she did deserve better," Morgan said sadly.
"You pitied her," Harry observed.
"After what Mordred did to her, I did pity her. I may have disliked her, but she didn't deserve what happened to her. I also know Mordred would have done the same thing to me," Morgan said.
"Did Mordred want you?" Harry asked.
"He wanted my fairy magic to gain immortality. He was very sick in the head; he didn't think right. He was highly deranged and… psychotic. A real sociopath. He chased me for a year in hopes that I would grant him immortality. When he came to Avalon, Arthur followed and a fierce battle took place. I had learned to be a gifted healer and did my best to heal Arthur's wound. However, it was clear he was dying. His final wish was to see his wife. I kept him alive long enough for the two to reconcile. She cried as he died in his bed. Six months later, Merlin came back and attacked the island. Apparently, the Knights of the Round Table didn't like the fact that Avalon's magic couldn't save their king and wanted to kill everyone here. Merlin lead them here. I watch as countless brothers and sisters were killed by the Knights of the Round table. We tried to fight back, but against the power of Merlin, we didn't really stand a chance. I was caught in a corner and, in a desperate move, I activated a forbidden spell: one that locked me inside time with the hopes that one day I could escape and return to the world of the living."
