TEXT: Morgana's fortress A man wearing a hooded cloak enters and stands before Morgana. Mordred is at her right side. Morgana: What a pleasure it is to see you again, Ari. Ari pushes his hood back. There is a druid symbol on his neck. Ari: The honour is all mine, my lady. Morgana: Your arrival has been keenly anticipated, I can assure you. I have boasted of your powers. Though not all believe. Ari: People may believe as they wish. Morgana: Well perhaps some small proof of your talents is in order. After all, seeing is believing. Is it not? Ari: I'm not an entertainer, my lady. Morgana: Of course not. Think of it as more as a demonstration. Extinguish those flames. Ari: My lady, I must protest. Morgana: Indulge me. Ari: *** Forth fleoge! The fires go out. Morgana: Impressive, indeed. Who here now could deny your powers? A guard brings a box to Morgana. Ari recognizes the symbol on the on it. Morgana stands up to open the box. Ari tries to move back but the guards grab his arms. Morgana: *** Aweax thu metethearfenda! Thicge thu thone drycraeft the thinan deorcan mode gefylth. Ari: Not this! Morgana: *** Thicge thu thone drycraeft the thinan deorcan mode gefylth. The guards force him down to the ground. Ari: Please, Morgana. My lady. Morgana: *** Aweax thu metethearfenda! Ari: I beg of you. I'm begging you. A slug like creature slithers it way up the box. It leaps at Ari, landing on his face. Ari struggles with it for a while. The creature then slithers away. Morgana goes back to her throne. Ari lies still after the creature has attacked. Mordred: Is he dead? Morgana: If I
SUMMARY:
Morgana succeeds in stripping Merlin of his power. With their greatest enemy now powerless, Morgana and Mordred, with their Saxon army, begin their attack on Camelot by attacking a nearby garrison. Arthur sees Morgana's attack as an act of war and decides to meet her forces at Camlann to prevent her from ever reaching Camelot. Morgana forges a sword for Mordred in Aithusa's breath, confident that nothing can survive its touch. Merlin prepares to journey to the Crystal Cave to get back his powers, however Morgana finds out about his plans through her use of a spy. Morgana and Merlin come face to face in the cave and the High Priestess traps Merlin in the cave forever. At Camlann, Arthur's and Morgana's armies come face to face with one another and the final battle begins. Arthur and his men desperately fight against the Saxons as Morgana watches from a cliff as Mordred ruthlessly kill knights with his new sword. At the crystal cave, with the help of a vision of his father Balinor, Merlin, as Emrys, makes his way out of the cave and straight for Camlann; his moment of destiny to save Arthur and Albion from Morgana has finally come.
