            ❝   i do seem to remember the last time you were in camelot,    i said that i would have your head were you to show it here again.     ❞     she’ll deny herself that she missed him.    she didn’t miss their violence,   their anger.  abrasive edges fighting against one another.   morgana didn’t want to admit that they were too alike   -    &  that was why they were so against each other.   but when they were together . . . that was why they thrived.       ❝     have you come to apologise ?   ❞    //    @bloodthirstygod

         ❝     i’m afraid,   sir gwaine,    that if you want to take me back to arthur. . .    ❞        pale palms cast either side of her,   as if a child playing a game of cat & mouse & she supposes that ever since she’s been the renegade queen that she is . . . that’s all she’s been doing.   they are still nothing more than children in a war far bigger than what they can handle.   but morgana would win.  ❝   you’ll have to catch me first.   ❞     //   @calledstrength

         ❝     if you would ask something of me or my kinsmen,   then please   - speak briefly.   i shall consider it.    ❞   // @magicwrought

         ❝  how skilled are you as a fighter ?   i do not mean with any powers you may have,   i mean with human weaponry.    ❞    not so powerful now, my lady.   morgana recalled how she had felt once her magic had been taken away from her,   how it felt to have been so sorely stripped of it.  like a piece of marrow missing from within her,   a chamber slashed from her heart.   it was something nobody without magic would understand. a pain.  but one that was very real.  if they had found a way to do it to her, surely. . . surely they would have the means to do it to another.   which was why a sword was cast at the girl’s feet.    ❝  would you be able to defend yourself ?  ❞  // @bcndruidh

                   ❝    you’re a fortunate man,   ser.   that your journey should lead you into my hands & not a more possessive being of territory.   ❞     harsh words parried if only to see if he would squirm beneath the threat.   though morgana has known the elf for long enough to know that he would not fall to fear so easily.  even if elves were creatures of emotions   -    he would surely be able to recognise her cadence.     ❝    if rumour has spread to me of your quest,   you should tread carefully. far fouler beings will know, too.    ❞      //  @woodlandborn
