Out of all the sentences, this really struck me.

“Can you fix me, Guinevere? Can you love me again?”

This was so very twisted and deep and crazily brilliant. I love how you captured the madness Morgana was surrounded by at the end of the series. Yet, there’s a sliver of hope. She wants to be accepted, which is ultimately everything she’s ever wanted.

Thank you!

Yes, I do think that acceptance is what drives her and that's why she became so insane by the end because she'd lost everyone and there was nobody left to accept her. Like, even if she'd won the war, she'd have had nobody to tell her she'd done the right thing.

I think that's also why she went after Gwen, I mean, she could have just broke in and stabbed Arthur in his sleep but instead she brainwashed Gwen into believing that she was the only one Gwen could trust.
