Thanks for reading.
Properly Morgause's death comes after Pellinore's. And just before the
tournament at Serleuse. I had overlooked it somehow before I got to Serleuse,
but Morgause's death and the circustances surrounding it were Lamorak's
reasons in the Morte for not wanting to brave the Orkney boys at
Camelot afterwards. So here's Morgause's death. Pellinore's death, on the
other hand, I mean to save for at about the midpoint of AKOTAS's run.
At this time, however, while I'm certain there'll be a second timeskip like
the one after the filler hiatus in 2009, I'm still deciding when it'll come;
and how much time will be skipped; and whether there'll be a hiatus or just a
skip; and, if there's a hiatus, whether there'll be a filler format like in
2009 or whether I'll just take some time off. So I don't know now when's
AKOTAS's midpoint, though obviously I don't think we've hit it yet.
When Pellinore buys it you'll know AKOTAS has, as Captain Picard put
it, fewer years ahead than behind.
In Malory, Gaheris kills Morgause. In White, Agravaine kills Morgause. Having lifted their characterizations pretty much whole from White, I feel odd having Gaheris do it. But I can't imagine that Agravaine would kill Morgause and then spare Lamorak, for any reason, let alone on account of the Table's code. I didn't purposefully plan to draw possibly the most horrific scene in all AKOTAS on a Halloween, but that worked out nicely didn't it? |
