"False? Impossible! I saw that with my own eyes! My mother told me personally, and it can't be wrong!" Arthur, who had calmed down a little, immediately became excited when he heard this.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he said these words, there would be someone more excited than him.
"Igraine is still alive?!!!" King Uther grabbed Arthur's shoulders excitedly and asked with a flushed face: "Tell me, Arthur, is Igraine really alive?!!! "
Arthur was confused by King Uther.
It was Kai who pulled King Uther away.
"Uther, calm down, Igraine is dead, we all know this."
"But..." I have to say that King Uther truly loves Queen Igraine, and he knows the truth best. But even if there is a glimmer of hope, even if it is slim, he hopes it is true.
"No but, Uther, Igraine died long after Arthur was born. This is a fact."
After that, Kai stopped talking about this topic with King Uther, and there was no way for people to be resurrected after death, let alone someone who had been dead for more than ten years. He looked at Arthur: "Your mother, Igrain, died more than ten years ago. How could she tell you those words in person?"
Arthur swallowed and said hesitantly: "It's Morgause..."
Arthur told all the causes and consequences.
It turned out that Arthur had agreed to her request after being defeated by Morgause that day. Before Morgause left Camelot, she told Arthur that her request was for him to undergo her trial in three days. But Morgause didn't tell Arthur where to find her, nor what the challenge was.
Then Arthur was put under house arrest by King Uther, and Merlin helped him escape.
They left Camelot and walked aimlessly. As a result, Arthur's horse was able to find its own way and led the two of them to a large lake. On the opposite side of the lake was a huge waterfall. There was nothing around. Crowded.
Just when Arthur and Merlin thought they had found the wrong path, Arthur's horse walked directly into the lake uncontrollably. But miraculously, the horse did not sink, but walked on the water. (When I saw this scene, I originally thought it would be like this in the series, but in the end, the horse waded through the water... The crew was so poor that they couldn't even do good special effects)
They passed through the waterfall, passed through a huge cave under the waterfall, and came to an extremely secret castle. They met Morgause.
Then Morgause gave Arthur a test. She asked Arthur to place his head on the guillotine while she held the decapitating ax. Arthur also hesitated, but the honor of the knight made him fulfill his oath, and he put his head on the guillotine.
In the end, Morgause did not cut off Arthur's head, but told him that he had passed the test. As a reward for his ordeal, he will be rewarded - meeting his mother.
Losing his mother after birth made Arthur yearn for his mother since he was a child. If it was such a good thing, of course he would agree.
They held a ceremony in a dreamlike room, and Morgause summoned the ghost of Arthur's mother, Queen Igraine.
At least that's what Arthur thought.
Igraine later told Arthur that her death was because King Uther deceived Igraine because he wanted an heir. King Uther knew that there was a price to pay for using magic to create a heir, but in order for his kingdom to continue, King Uther still chose to sacrifice Igraine.
Igraine told Arthur that King Uther was her murderer. And in order to hide this secret, he blamed it all on magic and began to strangle magic. Those who were killed by King Uther because of magic were all innocent, and they were all killed because of King Uther's selfishness.
This dirty water is really good, because most of it is true, but the cause and effect are distorted. Someone once said that the best lies are always nine truths and one falsehood. It's right in front of you.
Was King Uther really going to war against magic because he was afraid that others would know about his crimes?
No, because this matter was not King Uther's own wish at all. It was the two women, Igraine and Nivi, who made their own decisions from the beginning. Although King Uther later followed the trend, it would be too biased to say that all the responsibility lies with King Uther alone. At least King Uther never knew that the price of giving birth to Arthur was the sacrifice of Igraine.
This incident was just the trigger of the magic war. The real reason that caused King Uther to strangle magic was much more complicated than this. The simplest proof is that Camelot is just one of the Celtic countries. How many countries participated in the strangulation of magic?
all!
It's just that the degree of participation of each country is different, but it is true that all countries participated in this witch hunt in BC.
So the question is, how did King Uther manipulate all the countries to do this together?
The answer is that King Uther does not have this ability. In fact, those countries are voluntary. King Uther was just the beginning. The reason for this phenomenon is also very simple, that is, interests. Magic is not evil, that's for sure, but people's hearts are never kind.
A less naive person would have imagined what a man would do if he had power. Therefore, don't think that wizards are all good people. In fact, most wizards are not good birds. They control the power, despise the nobles and royal family, oppress the kingdom and people, and amass money wantonly. It can be said that they make the people resentful.
No matter the civilians, nobles or kings were very dissatisfied with the wizards, it was not until King Uther raised his army that everyone began to respond, which led to the magnificent magic war. The common people wanted to avoid the persecution of wizards, the nobles wanted their own power, and the kings coveted the wealth accumulated by wizards. In short, everyone had the same request and killed wizards into cherished animals.
Otherwise, King Uther alone is of no use!
All in all, the truth told by the so-called Igrain is completely nonsense.
"That's not Igraine!" Kai said with great certainty.
King Uther sat on the throne, his eyes blank and he didn't know what he was thinking, but he did not refute Kai's judgment. He knew what happened back then best. How could Igrain say such substandard words?
"But...I saw it with my own eyes..."
Arthur was about to retort, but was interrupted by Kai with a wave of his hand.
"What you saw with your own eyes cannot be false? Did you meet the witch on the first day? How are you sure that what you saw was Igraine and not an illusion created by the witch? Just because the witch spared your life? Then how can you Are you sure her target wasn't Uther from the beginning?"
There are so many flaws in this matter that Kai doesn't even know where to start.
