Morgana Pendragon quotes from Merlin

Morgana

I feel like I've put you in danger without stopping to ask how you feel about it. I'm sorry.

Gwen

I know how it feels to face the threat of execution and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Gwen

You're risking so much for this boy. You don't know anything about him. You don't even know his name!

Morgana

There's a bond between us.

Gwen

Stronger than the bond you have with Uther?

Morgana

It's like nothing I've ever felt before. Perhaps I was always meant to help him.

Gwen

How can that be?

Morgana

I don't know. I can't explain it.

Gwen

I've packed some armour for you.

Merlin

I won't be able to carry all that.

Morgana

You won't have to. We're coming with you.

Merlin

What do you mean?

Gwen

You're going to need all the help you can get. I can mend armour and sharpen swords.

Morgana

And I know how to fight.

Merlin

But you... you can't. I mean, why would you?

Gwen

If it was the other way round, you'd help us. You already have. You saved my life.

Morgana

And you helped me get the druid boy out of Camelot. We owe it to you. Both of us.

Gwen

(about Arthur) "Why do you think he came here?"

Morgana

"The same reason we did: Merlin. Arthur may act like he doesn't care, but he wouldn't be here if he didn't."

Morgana

You still not learned how to dress yourself?

Arthur

You don't have a dog and fetch the stick yourself. No offence, Merlin.

Merlin

None taken.

Hunith

Prince Arthur, you didn't finish your breakfast.

Arthur

Didn't I?

Morgana

Come on, eat up.

Arthur

Mmmmm.

Arthur

Right. Let's get going. We need wood, and lots of it.

Merlin

Of course.

Gwen

Arthur said it was lovely.

What would you like to know?

Morgana

Why I can see the future in my dreams. Why I’m able to start fires with my mind.

People who’re able to do this are few and far between. You have a gift.

Morgana

Is it magic?

Of a kind, yes. But it will be many years before you’re able to understand it fully, let alone use it. This isn’t something to be afraid of.

Morgana

Merlin.

Merlin

My lady. [He enters] I wanted to check you were okay.

Morgana

I’m fine. What was said at the woods…

Merlin

You can trust me, Morgana, I won’t tell anyone.

Morgana

Thank you, Merlin. I know now who I really am, and it isn’t something to be scared of. Maybe one day people will come to see magic as a force for good.

Merlin

It’s good to have you back.

Merlin

What's wrong? You can trust me Morgana. You know you can.

Morgana

[she shakes her head] I'm scared Merlin. I don’t understand anything anymore. I need to know what's happening. Please.

Merlin

Gaius will be back soon. He’ll be able to help.

Morgana

He won't. He’ll just give me more remedies and they won't do any good. It's magic Merlin.

Merlin

What?

Morgana

I'm your friend. You know I wouldn’t make this up.

Merlin

Of course.

Morgana

You believe me. You think it's magic too. Please Merlin, I just need to hear someone say it so I don’t have to keep feeling like I'm imagining it.

Merlin

I really wish there was something I could say. [she leaves] Morgana, Morgana wait.

Mordred

(Telepathically) Hello, Morgana.

Morgana

Did you hear that?

We don't always need to speak to communicate.

Morgana

You look troubled, Gwen.

Gwen

Oh, I’m fine.

Morgana

You’re very secretive these days; I’m beginning to think there’s a man involved.

Gwen

When do I get to meet any decent men?

Morgana

How can you be so heartless? Gwen is the most kind, loyal person you would ever meet and she’s been more than a friend to all of us! And you would leave at the mercy of those animals!

Arthur

Morgana.

Morgana

Have you no shame? Do you think of no one but yourself?

Arthur

Morgana –

Morgana

I knew you were many things Arthur Pendragon, but I didn’t know you were a gutless coward!

Arthur

Morgana! Perhaps if you would stop shouting at me for one second, you would notice that I am packing.

Morgana

I feel as though I somehow know Morgause.

Gaius

I don't know how.

Morgana

From this day forward I do not know you. From this day forward, I disown you.

Uther

You will go to your chambers!

Morgana

And you Uther, you will go to hell.

Morgana

(Morgana falls and a soldier closes in on her, preparing to strike her down with its sword) Merlin!

Merlin

(looks back at the sound of her voice, but after a long moment he continues on without her, leaving her to die)

Morgana

(looking at his retreating figure desperately) Please!
