Lesson Five: Merlin & King Arthur Study Guide

Chapter 6

Merlin & King Arthur


Merlin is one of the best wizards in history & was an advisor to King Arthur & King Uther Pendragon. He is a half-blood wizard & studied at Hogwarts. Due to his clever attributes he was sorted into the Slytherin house. He was also a seer & tapped into divination well. Arthur was raised by Sir Ector & Kay; his foster father & brother. He came across the Sword in the Stone & was proclaimed High King of Britain.


Morgana Le Fay & the Downfall of Arthur


Morgana has two theorized personalities. One persona is of a healer & protagonist who was not related to Arthur. The second persona is that she is Arthur's half older sister & is portrayed as an evil witch to destroy Arthur's kingdom. Magi-historians believe the first persona however. Morgana hated Merlin for his dull personality & hated Guinevere for her unfaithfulness. Arthur was betrayed by Guinevere & Lancelot du Lac. Due to this, the Round Table tore in two pieces. Lancelot was exiled & Guinevere was sent to a nunnery. Mordred ousted Guinevere's & Lancelot's affair due to greed of power. This made Arthur destroy his own kingdom. Arthur found out about Mordred's disloyalty & battled him. Only Sir Bedivere & Arthur survived. Sir Bedivere returned Excalibur to the Lady of the Lake, while Arthur was saved & healed by Morgana.
