Talk:Annis

Annis' personality seems to be clear and easy to figure on the first side. However, things are not always so simple or what they seem. While she was an interesting character and certainly had/has a lot of qualities, there is no doubt that her forgiveness came much too quickly because nobody who grieves the loss of a loved one suddenly treats the killer like a friend. Wether it was lack of detailed and well thought-through description on the writer's side or part of her character, what she did was actually quite incomprehensible. Forgiving is one thing but glorifying the one who killed the husband was taken a bit too far. There are people who can quickly forget aboout what happened before and change their opinion into quite the opposite all of a sudden, but often it is a very unusual character trait and normally doesn't happen when a loved one is being killed.

As for her comparing Morgana to Uther, it is still open to debate how much they have in common, but fact is that the characters have "their own" opinions which doesn't necessarily have to match the truth. Remember when Kilgharrah told Merlin that there is nothing that could cause Uther remorse because his heart is as cold as stone. The viewers knew otherwise and so did Merlin and Gaius when "poisoning" Arthur to make Uther cry. It's a ll a question of perspective and a lot of opinions of the characters differ from one another. So we have to state out in the articles and personality descriptions that what the characters think is only their opinion and point of view and not necessarily the one and only truth. That is why I added to Annis' personality that she believed there were similarities between Morgana and Uther and not that she realised that they are similar or alike - because realising something would mean to see the truth and the truth is still to be found and not so clear on this subject.
