... Tch, obviously. Trusting others freely is a mistake. That's something even the king didn't realize in time.
[ Trusting Lancelot. Trusting Guinevere. Trusting Mordred. Even trusting Morgan, to an extent, and letting the children of a witch become members of the Round Table. What destroyed King Arthur in the end was the people around him betraying the trust he placed in them, one way or another.
Mordred stares at Magilou, half wary of her change in attitude, half confused by her name. It's unpleasant, watching someone switch between emotions so easily; her mother was much the same, albeit always with an ugly, sinister undercurrent. Magilou's hollow words don't match that, but it's enough to set her on edge, even when she returns to normal. ]
What a goddamn mouthful... maybe I'll just call you Witch. [ Mostly to be disagreeable. She smirks, but her voice carries a thinly veiled threat as she continues. ] But know this. Whether past, present, or future, I'm the only one allowed to defile the glory of King Arthur. If you make her do anything that goes against her oath as a knight, I'll turn you to rust on my blade. Understand?
