Morgana is about to do something that will be the talk of the palace for the next few weeks. To her, it's nothing special. She was always allowed to interrupt her father for something important, and Morgana's judgment on what constitutes important is rather accurate.
For instance, she interrupted her father when a boy from the village had fallen from one of the cliffs, and a search party was needed. On the other hand, she left her father alone when she managed to catch her first rabbit. She only told him that she'd been able to provide supper at supper.
Because of her decent record, Morgana doesn't stop when she walks -- barefoot and still wet from the stream -- past the guard to see Uther. The guard is so shocked by the ward's sudden appearance (and current state of disarray) that he doesn't even think of stopping her. Then again, the last guard who laid a hand on her when she was removed from the Prince's chambers, has found himself with the worst of all duties since.
The guards are a lot like Uther; they don't quite know how to deal with a little determined lady.
Morgana starts without preamble. "The guards left us. We were at the stream and they left. We didn't run or anything. They just left. We had to walk back here on our own."
It should be noted Morgana's walked straight into the council chambers, while the council is in session.
