Queen of the Borocelts
Who comes to pay you homage.
You are most welcome,
my lady
This way.
Thank you.
Now, what have
you brought?
What is this?
These are jewels
and silks.
Milady
We are overwhelmed
by your gifts.
Well, perhaps I...
And my servants...
Can join you for the night.
We've had a long...
Tiring Journey...
And we'd like to rest
Before we return home.
Of course.
We can spend
some time together.
You can tell me about...
Your people.
It would be my pleasure...
Your majesty.
What are you
showing me, Mab?
( moaning )
What have you done?
Arthur...
( cackling )
I rode fast that day,
but I knew I was
Already too late
to stop something
Out, my lords.
Out!
And close the door behind you.
Merlin, what's the matter?
Tell me the truth, Arthur.
Two nights ago
you slept with a woman.
Yes. If you must know, I did,
though I don't see why
I need to tell you
about it.
That was Morgan le Fay.
Who?
Her mother was
the Lady Igraine, your mother.
I didn't know.
I swear I didn't know.
There will
be a child.
Mab will see to that.
He'll be the future,
and he'll destroy us.
A mirror.
There are no mirrors in Avalon.
You see how I can change you?
You've changed
me already.
You scarred me.
I know.
It's so unfair.
Unfair? That was evil.
With evil all around me
I can do nothing
but evil to survive.
Oh... That's too easy.
You can fight it,
like Merlin.
It's because of Merlin
that all this came about.
That's not true.
Why are you here, Mab?
To make you an offer.
I will restore your beauty
If you take Merlin to a place
that I have created for you.
You can live with him there
to the end of your days.
And be happy?
And be happy.
He has a Destiny.
It would keep him
from his purpose.
It would keep him
from wasting his life.
He believes that fighting
for what is right isn't a waste.
I wouldn't do that to him.
I love him.
I love him.
You hate him.
I hate him, too.
So what's your answer?
No.
I'm...
I'm... Sorry.
If you change your mind,
just call my name... Out loud.
I couldn't stay away for long.
Arthur was more to me
than just a king
And I was curious.
To see what was going on.
Merlin!
It's good to see you,
old friend.
What's all this, Arthur?
A promise made flesh.
I'm building the
city of Camelot.
It's a new
beginning.
I made a mistake
that night
with Morgan
But I can't believe
that I'll be condemned
For all eternity
for one mistake.
No, not by me.
I'll never condemn
you, Arthur.
I'm to marry Lord
Leo's daughter.
Oh. Do you love her?
She'll make a
splendid Queen
And be a good wife.
We hope to get married
here at Camelot.
It doesn't matter if
it's not finished.
Will you be
there with me?
I'd be honored.
What's her name, your bride?
Guinevere.
I was going
to Tintagel castle.
Perhaps Arthur
wouldn't have been so eager
To leave on his quest
for the holy grail
If he'd known
what a terrible enemy
in Morgan le Fay.
Merlin
Is here
to see you, my lady.
Send him in.
You hear that, Mordred?
There's a wizard
come to see us.
Won't this be fun?
My lady Morgan.
Do you know
why I'm here?
Say hello to my son, Mordred.
Master Mordred.
That was rude,
Mordred.
You can do anything you like,
but you must never be rude.
Rude is being weak.
You were saying, Merlin?
Do you know why I'm here?
It's to do with my son.
Hasn't he grown?
Yes, he has, and rather more
than is natural.
Oh, of course.
It's magic.
Morgan... I beg you,
for the sake of the country.
You must not teach him
the old ways.
This country means
nothing to me.
A bastard sits
on the throne
That should be mine.
A bastard
begot in blood
When his father Uther
Seduced my mother
and killed my father.
It's the future
I'm thinking of, Morgan.
Oh, you would think
of the future, Merlin
Because the past
is too painful.
You chose Uther
to be king.
You helped him
seduce my mother
And destroyed me.
In the end,
you begot Mordred
Just as surely as
Queen Mab and Arthur.
I know that,
but I can live with it.
Morgan:
Just as you'd have
to live with the fact
That Mordred
will be king.
No. That can never be.
Mordred!
Merlin's a guest.
Don't be naughty.
He just wants
attention.
You'll get all
you want when
you're king.
And he will
be, Merlin.
He's Arthur's son.
What about the old ways, Morgan?
You're in
no position
To lecture me
on what I can
Or can't do.
Besides
The old ways have
been good to me.
They've given
me a son...
And made me beautiful.
Oh, poor Morgan.
It's only an illusion.
Beauty is always only
an illusion, Merlin.
Didn't you know that?
( wind howling )
We thought we'd come
in the traditional way--
Through the door.
It's traditional
to open it first.
Mordred, look
who's here.
Your auntie Mab
And uncle Frik.
It's been ages
Master Merlin.
Do you ever think
of the old school
Where I tried
to teach you
The fundamentals
of magic?
He could have been
my star pupil, Mordred
But he proved...
Disappointing.
But you won't,
will you, Mordred?
Isn't he handsome?
Handsome is as
handsome does.
What does
that mean?
I never really
understood the phrase.
Mab:
Toys, Mordred.
Auntie
always brings you
Lots of lovely toys.
( pony nickering )
You see, Merlin?
You took my family
away from me
And now I have
a new one.
They won't last, Morgan.
Nothing does.
Can't you see it?
Feel it?
I'm winning,
Merlin.
I have the Precious gift
of Patience.
It'll be years
Before Mordred
can claim the throne
But I can wait.
Time means
nothing to me.
You'll be the death
of Arthur, and the end
Of all poor Merlin's dreams
Won't you,
my sweetie?
Oh, look.
The big, bad wizard
can't do a thing.
Merlin, you're troubled again.
Still the same
cry for help, lady.
Your sister, Mab,
grows more powerful.
And I grow weaker.
What can I do?
I... I have to find a man
to guard the throne
While Arthur goes questing
for the holy grail.
The temptation will be to seize
the crown when he's gone.
You need a man pure in heart.
I've tried to find him before.
He doesn't exist.
My ship will take you.
It was like a dream...
A dream of a dream.
The skies parted and I saw the
dream come alive before my eyes.
Then, one day,
they'll describe
Me, Arthur, Guinevere
and Camelot as a dream.
Who are you?
I'm Merlin, the wizard.
There aren't any wizards left.
I'm the last of them.
And who are you?
Galahad...
And my mother
is the lady Elaine
And my father
is sir Lancelot.
Merlin:
I've come here
to find a man
To defend king Arthur
in his kingdom...
And he must be a good man,
pure in heart.
You've found him.
It was all too easy.
Are you sure this
is what you want?
It's not what I want.
It's what you want.
I can't hold
you back.
It's your Chance for
