User blog comment:Morgause5/The end of series 5/@comment-4190137-20120831133823

I remember reading someone's idea. I really liked it a lot! And I expanded on it a bit! It's now my ideal ending for Series 5 :D

The battle of Camlann - Mordred and Arthur kill each other in a duel.

Morgana then redeems herself by sacrificing her life to resurrect Arthur on the Isle of the Blessed on the altar.

But since Arthur and Mordred are destined enemies, ultimate opponents, they have to both be alive at the same time as it's Arthur's inevitable destiny to die at Mordred's hands...

~One Month Later~

The final scene of Series 5 is one month after Arthur is resurrected and Morgana died. At the end of Series 5, we see Mordred behind the altar, looking like a wrinkly baby, weak (like Voldemort was before The Goblet of Fire in Harry Potter), as he wasn't properly formed as Morgana didn't intentionally form his body... Then we see Eira walking up to him, dressed as a high priestess, and saying, "Mordred... I am here to help you, my name is Elaine." We see the ghoul Mordred's eyes weakly look at Elaine. She then picks up Mordred and wraps him in a cloth.

~Merlin... will return~

The end!

Then we later learn that Elaine was the twin of Morgana who was abandoned by Uther as he saw that she had magic. She was exiled to a family in a village and raised under the name of "Eira", until she met with Morgana, and later learnt of who she is...
