Was Morgause raised by Nimeuh? Gaius said he gave Morgause to the High Priestesses. Nimueh was a High Priestess at the time, she could have easily told Morgause about Arthur's birth. Obviously Uther gave Morgause plenty of reasons to hate him, but Nimueh's death could have made it worse. Equally if Morgause was Mordred's mother (as she is in the bulk of the older legends), that could help explain how the seer Nimueh could foresee Arthur's death (she claimed she would not be responsible for Arthur's death) and not how great Merlin's powers would become as she could have helped Morgause raise Mordred until it was time to have him trained by his druid mentor. Equally could Mordred's father be King Lot (Morgause's husband in the legend), rather than Arthur's illegitimate son as he usually is.

Please provide me with your thoughts, fellow Merlin fans.
