Mythical Lore | Morgan Le Fey

Morgan le Fey  [Source]

The Tale of Morgen Le Fey, the roots of Morgan Le Feys history are a cloudy mixture of Celtic mythology and legend,  She first appears in writing in the twelfth century but was likely based on much older figures from Celtic folklore and mythology.

Few witches in literacy history have been as influential - or as maligned - as Morgan le fey. She is seen as either the Healer/Ruler of the Mystical Island of Avalon.

OR the Arch Villainess of Arthurian legend, for more than nine hundred years Morgan popular perceptions of Witchcraft. 

Morgan Le Fey has been linked to some deities, such as Morrígan the ‘phantom Queen’ of Irish Myth associated with battle and prophecy.

 The Mari-morgans of Breton folklore who, Siren-like, lure sailors to their doom. 

The most direct influence is Modron, Etymologically linked to Dea Matrona, the divine mother goddess of ancient Gual. Modron was a divine figure in Welsh mythology connected to the court of King Arthur.

In these celtic stories, we can see glimmers of who Morgan Le Fay would become; an otherworldly figure, a voice of death and prophecy, a divine figure of creation and creativity.

Morgan Le Fey; In one account of many, Morgan of Vita is a renowned healer and scholar, one of nine ethereal sisters living on a mystical island of Avalon. The best of the nine, Morgan was known for her beauty, skill in mathematics and ability to shapeshift. 

  “...That art is known for her beauty. She he can change shape and cut the air on new wings in the manner of Dedalus. When she wishes she is in Brist, Carnot or Papie when she wishes, as she glides out of the air into your lands.” 

 Her magic is depicted as art comparable to the creative force of Dedalus, the great inventor of Greek Mythology.

 What makes her essential is not only the fine art of magic but of healing, Morgan's knowledge and power are the only thing that can restore a mortally wounded Arthur to health, and her skills the best hope for the future of Britain.

______________________________________________________________

 Then begins a literacy descent from being a ruler of her own right to becoming the villain. [Image Source] As literary pieces paint her with suspicion of her magic.

Morgan studies healing, astronomy and magical arts then uses it to further her own terrible hatreds and jealousies. She grows entangled in an elaborate love triangle with Queen Guinivere and her adulterous lover lancelot. By trying to expose the affair 

“Chastity-revealing horn.” 

 She goes as far as to create an otherworldly Shadow realm, ominously called the Valley of No Returns, that she traps Lancelot in three times. 

 Thus the transformation still associated with healing and Avalon, literature increasingly links her beauty and power with dangerous instability.

 In vita she was described for her inner creativity goodness, transforms into a sign of sexuality run amok, authors depict her as licentious and prone to jealousies. Her power that was once the only hope for Arthur and the future of Britain, becomes a force of corruption and darkness.

 She is shown as a central threat to Camelot and the world as she tried to kill Arthur and his knights through demonic Monster servants, deadly seductions and elaborate plots involving green knights.

 She is also always entrusted with Arthur once he is mortally wounded and she takes him away by Boat to Avalon.

Morgan Le Fey is connected to the Fea in that she is someone who is able to understand that type of world and can be one with that type of magic, especially through celtic origins of fea. 

And that is how they see her as one not unlike the fea, both kind and cruel how their morality and tokens change on a whim. How they can be both neutral or give help for a price. Or plain mischievous for no reason other than they want to. Uncontrollable and hard to understand and something they cant contain. Morgan Le Feys image has changed due to misogyny warping her image into a figure of evil, jealousy and cruelty and fickle in her actions when she decides to save Arthur or in this case save a man.

🍬🌽Pumpkin Drake (candycorn morph)🌽🍬

Happy Halloween, goblinfam! Hope all of you are having a wonderful time 🎃🍂

Some lore:

With their long bodies, stubby legs, and more or less vestigial wings, Pumpkin Drakes are here to claim people's jack o' lanterns as their own!

Domestication and breeding has led to wonderful and curious-looking morphs in this species which are not observed in their wild counterparts. The candycorn morph is a fairly new colouration, but has proven to be extremely popular amongst younger magic users.

Pumpkin Drakes are a rambunctious species. Even in places where there are an abundance of pumpkins, they can often be seen in scuffles with others of their kind for what they consider to be the best pumpkin to nest in for the next few days. Pet Pumpkin Drakes can housed in pumpkin-shaped receptacles, but it is recommended to give them access to a real pumpkin at least once a month.

When a pumpkin has been obtained, these small dragons will proceed to hollow it out, eating the flesh and seeds in the process (they are omnivores). With jack o' lanterns, the work of emptying out the pumpkin has already been done for them, so it's no wonder more and more wild Pumpkin Drakes have been seen in neighbourhoods during the Halloween season!

Wild Pumpkin Drakes are rarely phased by interaction (when treated with respect), so be sure to be on the look out for one (or more) on your porch, or wherever you have jack o' lanterns! 🎃🐉

Hi saku and everyone is reading this post ;-)

• So you've said in a previous ask if someone want to hurt pickle or he found out about their past partner was abusive ; he wouldn't hesitate to manifest karma as u say! so why didn't he do the same thing with Andrew? i bet he had saw the two filmed videos of him with darling in social media , especially when that latter was humiliated by the girl . plus the repulsive comments in the first one ... even in one audios he said to pickle that he did check on him from time to time.

• why did u choose precisely carfentanil 🧐 i mean it's a tranquilizer for elephants and large mammals 😅 and harmful to death for human health even a vampire is a half human !!!

Isaac wasn't as established as he was just after him and Andrew broke up. Because years have gone by and the flame between them has simmered, they aren't a part of each other's lives anymore. Although he would feel anger seeing what happened to Andrew, Isaac would feel like he had no right interfering. He does check in for his own curiosity, but it's highly unlikely he'd do anything further.

Carfentanil is absolutely harmful to humans, but not vampires even though they were previously mortal. Their bodies don't abide by the natural laws that are currently known: they heal exponentially, hunger for blood, their senses are almost outmatched, and they have abilities that are beyond science. Carfentanil is strong enough to debilitate mythics, and in higher doses it can incapacitate them completely.

Hi! I love Crittertongue, and I’ve been wondering; why is one of the three sisters human? Does she have a different father?  Is she adopted? Something else?

Ooor did I miss the comic where that's explained?

Hope you have a good day! :)

Yep, Trestle's got a different father. He hasn't been in the comics because he wasn't around for long. He's called Roy and he now lives on a canal boat with his third wife, Dale. They're nice.

The curse stems from Silo and Joist's dad, a real shitbird of a con-man with a gift for sweet talk and phony paperwork, but very little else. He bobbed around for a few years after Silo was born, and fucked off for good when it became clear that there was another child inbound and the "daughter is goat" situation wasn't going to clear up on its own.

"I may live in an abandoned shipyard and I'm almost certainly having a second goat baby, but at least my shitty boyfriend ain't 'round no more!'

Finally got around to drawing all of Sakis’ brothers! They’re not super great pics, little more than sketches, but at least they have a face now. Progress! Also a little handy chart to see how close in age everyone is.

I don’t really know how old Orestes is, but I suppose he’s got at least a century on his shoulders? It’s still a bit vague, so that will probably change.

Should I make a ref for Sakis’ mother too? Ah why am I asking I’m going to do it anyway lol
