One thing that can be kind of added with Morgana's view towards Gaius is that he along with Kilgharrah and even Taliesin as well kind of manipulated Merlin's view of Morgana because of neither one of the three mainly or basically Gaius and Kilgharrah didn't give Merlin advice about Morgana you would probably see events and the overall story be very different of how it is currently. You would most likely see Merlin and Morgana relationship much stronger than it was every shown on the show it could of been shown as a two best friends or a romantic relationship. But in the end real what it comes down to is of Merlin took more of a leap of faith with his relationship with Morgana instead of being told by everyone what to do when it came to her everything would have been different of how she views him and how he views her. Also I know she was the kings wards but lets say she found out about Merlin's power early on I don't think she would have not kept his secret safe I mean the one Episode that was perfect moment to have her find out about Merlin's powers was the The Nightmare Begins Episode because it would of changed things for her of how she would deal with Morgause. But another way of looking at Morgana's reasoning and her views towards Merlin and Arthur is that those characters were manipulated to the extreme by Uther, Morgause, Gaius and Kilgharrah. Merlin was manipulated by Gaius and Kilgharrah of how to basically deal with Morgana instead of simply doing what he believed was right even with the great risk of what might happen to him. Arthur was manipulated by Uther to simply hated Magic which Morgana has which causes her to view Arthur just as Uther. An Morgana was manipulated by all four Gaius constantly lied to her saying she doesn't have magic its just bad dreams and Kilgharrah made one of her best friend in Merlin loose faith and her. As for Uther and Morgause they everything bad to her that you can possible think of that could mess up a person for life. Uther told her I hate all magical people and they must all die, also my best friend who I'm making you believe is your father he died because I didn't send him any help for him also he real isn't your father I King Uther I'm your father. As for Morgause she basically told Morgana you have no family or friends except for me and everyone else you have to hate and kill. Basically has Morgana done some bad things since she became the shows main villain yes however she is not a evil villain like Morgause or Uther they just manipulated and destroyed her life enough to cause her to do some bad things and view people like Merlin, Arthur and Gwen in the wrong way.
