Scene 4: Camelot background Merlin music playing in background Scene 5: (Stone background, Table and chairs, Door piece in the middle) Uther: "We know nothing about Morgause, you should not fight her. Arthur: "Father, if I do not fight her it will be seen as cowardice. I have no choice but to fight her." Uther: "You may have a point, but you should still withdraw your challenge. She killed 5 guards!" Arthur: "No." Scene 6: Morgana's Room (Stone background, Morgana's bed) Guinevere: Who is she, and why would she challenge Arthur? Morgana: I feel as if I ve met her somewhere before. Guinevere: Really? How could you know her? Morgana: I don t know. Scene 7: Arthur s room (Stone background, Arthur s bed) Merlin: Do you know why she challenged you? Arthur: I m the king s son. She probably wants to prove herself. Merlin: You should be careful. It sounds like she s pretty good with her sword. Arthur: Take a message to Morgause. Tell her to withdraw her challenge. Scene 8: Morgause s room (Stone background, Morgause s bed)

2 Merlin walks in. Morgause points her sword at him. Morgause: What do you want. Merlin: I have a message from Prince Arthur. He wants you to withdraw your challenge. He doesn t want to fight you. Morgause: Then maybe he should withdraw. Merlin: No it isn t in him to withdraw. Morgause: Then we have that in common. Scene 9: The Arena (Camelot background, Cardboard) Uther: The fight is by the knight s rules, and to the death. Morgause and Arthur fight. Arthur wounds Morgause.

Arthur: Yes. Morgause pulls Arthur up. Scene 10: Gaius s house (Stone background, bench, table with potions) Gaius finishes up bandaging up Morgause. Gaius: You seem familiar; have you visited Camelot before? Morgause: Yes, when I was a baby. I doubt you would remember me. Scene 11: Arthur s room (Stone background, Arthur s bed) Merlin: It could ve been worse. Arthur: How could it have been worse. I was defeated in front of all of Camelot by a girl! Merlin: It s actually kind of funny when you think about it. (Arthur glares) Or not. Scene 12: Morgause s room (Stone background, Morgause s bed) Morgana walks in. Morgana: I didn t mean to intrude. I wanted to introduce myself; I m the Lady Morgana. Morgause: I know who you are. Morgana: How is your arm, you were wounded? Morgause: It will heal. You look tired. Morgana: I haven t been sleeping. That s a beautiful bracelet. Morgause: It was a gift from my mother. Here I want you to have it. It s a healing bracelet. It will help you sleep. Morgana: I couldn t. Morgana turns to go. Morgause: I hope you will remember me fondly. Morgana nods and leaves the room.

Scene 14: Stone background Arthur: You re leaving? Morgause: Yes. Arthur: You re a skilled swordsman, woman, swordswoman. Morgause: I will expect to see you in 3 days. Arthur nods. Morgause: Thank you for letting me pick up my sword. You have proved yourself to be a man of honor. You inherited that trait from your mother. Arthur: You knew my mother? Morgause nods. Scene 15: Morgana s room (Stone background, Morgana s bed) Morgana is in bed. Guinevere is shaking her, to trying to wake her. Guinevere: Morgana, Lady Morgana? Morgana wakes up.

Scene 16: Dining room (Stone background, Table and chairs, Door piece in the middle) Uther: On no account are you to go to this challenge. Arthur: I gave her my word! She had her sword to her chest! Morgause said she knew my mother. Uther: Then she is lying! Playing on your affections. You will be staying in Camelot! Guards, take him to his chambers! Scene 17: Arthur s room (Stone background, Arthur s bed, Door piece in between) Guards outside door. Merlin walks in. Merlin: Why are there guards outside the door? Arthur: My father has confined me to my chambers and forbid me from accepting Morgause s challenge. Merlin: I take it we re going anyway. Arthur: You know Merlin; you re smarter than you look.

Scene 21: Morgana s room (Stone background, Morgana s bed) Gaius walks in. Morgana: Gaius, come in! Gaius: Here, My Lady; I ve brought you your sleeping draft. Morgana: I could ve saved you the trouble, I had the best nights sleep I ve had in a long while last night. I only wish I could thank Morgause for her gift. Gaius: Morgause gave you that bracelet? Morgana: Yes, she said it would help me sleep. Gaius what is it? Scene 22: Dining room (Stone background, Table and chairs, Door piece in the middle) Gaius: My Lord, I must speak with you about Morgause. While I was treating her wound, I noticed that she wore a bracelet bearing the mark of the Great House of Gorlois. There is only one person other than Morgana that would have cause to wear such a bracelet. Uther: Her half sister. I was led to believe that the child had died. Gaius: The child lives, My Lord. I smuggled her out of Camelot and gave her to the High Priestesses of the Old Religion. Uther: You should have told me, Gaius. Does Morgana know? Gaius: No. Uther: Good. Scene 23: Forest Arthur: We are in Oden s territory. We could be attacked at any moment. ATTACK Merlin: Maybe we should turn back. What if Morgause makes you do something even more dishonorable than breaking your word? Arthur: Be quiet, Merlin. Morgause s castle background is brought onto stage. Merlin: If we weren t sure Morgause was a sorceress before, we do now. Arthur: That must ve been how she defeated me; she was using magic! Merlin: It didn t look like she was. Arthur: And what would you know about magic, Merlin? Merlin: Nothing.

5 Scene 24: Morgause s castle (Stone background with vines, Door piece in the middle, Execution block on one side, Table with candles on the other side) Morgause: You kept your promise. Arthur: What is the challenge you wish to set me? Morgause: Place your head on the block. Arthur does. Merlin: Arthur! I won t let you do this! Arthur: Stay out of this, Merlin. Morgause raises her ax. Then she puts it down. Morgause: You have shown yourself to be a man of your word, so I will grant you a wish. Would you like to see your mother? Arthur: Yes. The walk thru the door to the other room. Merlin: If Uther finds out you have collaborated with a sorceress, he will not forgive you. Arthur: Maybe Uther is wrong. Surely not all magic can be evil. Morgause: It is time. Morgause says some magic words, then Ygraine comes out. Arthur: Mother! Ygraine: Arthur! The last time I saw you, you were a little baby. Arthur: I can t bear the thought that you died because of me. Ygraine: It is your father s fault, not yours. We tried and tried, but I just could not have a baby, so your father went to the High Priestesses of the Old Religion and asked them to help. They obliged, but to create a life, a life must be taken. Uther sacrificed my life so I could birth you. Ygraine leaves stage. Merlin: Are you alright? Arthur: We are going back to Camelot. Scene 25: Dining room (Stone background, Table and chairs, Door piece in the middle) Sir Leon and Uther are looking at a map. Arthur walks in. Arthur: I know what you did to my mother. Uther: Leave us. Sir Leon leaves. Arthur: You are a hypocrite and a liar! Arthur throws down his gauntlet. Uther: I will not fight you, Arthur. Arthur attacks Uther. Uther defends. Arthur knocks Uther to the ground and puts his sword to his chest. Merlin comes in. Merlin: It was a lie! Those words were Morgause s, not your mother s! This has been her plan all along! Arthur: Swear to me it isn t true! Uther: I swear. Arthur: I m sorry.

6 Scene 26: Gaius s house (Stone background, bench, table with potions) Uther is there. Merlin walks in. Uther: I wanted to thank you. You have proven yourself to be a valuable ally in the war against magic. Merlin: Just doing my duty. Uther leaves. Gaius walks in. Gaius: Was that Uther I just saw leaving? Merlin: He wanted to thank me for being a valuable ally in the war against magic. The End
