I feel bad for Morgana. I don't think she is completely evil; she obviously still cares for Arthur and Gwen and she did care for Uther. She just thought that it was her only option to react violently and murderously because when she found out she had magic she panicked. Morgana didn't want to hide who she was; to live in fear of being caught and killed. She just wanted freedom. She thought that the only way to ensure her own safety and the safety of her kind was to become queen herself. Then she could protect other sorcerers and herself with the people of Camelot.

However, I don't think Merlin is evil at all, either. Sure he hates himself, but he is not a" traitor to his own kind." I don't think he's obsessed with Arthur, either... He simply considers Arthur his best friend, and he would do anything for him because he loves him. (As a friend, not a lover, however much I ship them.) Merlin has done a lot more good than just saving Aithusa, too. He saved Camelot and Arthur more times than he or I care to count. Even if you do have something against Arthur, you can't deny that he was a good and fair king. Merlin can get mixed up about doing the right thing sometimes, but he is certainly not evil.

Last thing: Merlin is extremely well-written! Don't insult it!
