Morgana Quotes

“The Queen of Air and Darkness tilted back her head and laughed. A more ghastly sound I hope never to hear. ‘Do you think I care about these trifles?’
‘Murder is no trifle, woman,’ Arthur said.

― Clara Winter

“It was now or never. When he was sure that she was engrossed in her work, he quickly took the small bottle of poison from his pocket and poured it into his water flask, making sure that his back was to Morgana. He had to concentrate to stop his hands from shaking; the enormity of what he was doing made him tremble.”
― Colin Brake, The Last Dragonlord

“Then their eyes met, and his fantasies were shattered.”
