After her marriage to his father, he extended his stay in Camelot. He was a very renown Sorcerer now and had healed many, but his heart was dark, dark with envy, jealousy and many other things. He was jealous of his Father who married the woman he loved and who was King of Camelot. He should King of Camelot and Avalong he thought often about it. He was approached by Sir Agravaine and Sir Tristan Dubois while Quen Guienevere was away, visiting her people. She was a very loved Queen and many men desired her, including Sir Lancelot he knew.

But he was being approached by these two men who said to him :

"I know you're jealous of your father, Mordred. Why not make her suffer as well?"

"It was Aunt Elaine's idea wasn't it?"

"How did you know?"

"I have my secrets GrandUncle Tristan. What do you propose we do?"

"Your Aunt Elaine and your Uncle Agravaine and I had some ideas about her, why not say she's a Witch and have her burnt at the stake?"

"Your Aunt Elaine really hates her this much?"

"Yes well, she's jealous of her because she has Sir Lancelot and your Aunt Elaine is infatuated with him."

"Unrequited love at first sight? It must her a lot to her man being with another woman?"

"Yes and it must you a lot to see your woman with another man, this other man being your own Father? Don't you hate him?"

"Grand Uncle Agravaine, why do you hate him so much?"

"Because he was the cause if your grandmother's, the Lady Yrgaine's death."

"But that was so many years ago. Haven't you gotten over it?"

"Nay, she was my favourite sister and I want your father'd downfall and I know you want it as much as we do." said Sir Agravaine.

"I don't know about that Grand Uncle Agravaine. But I'll think about it."

And indeed he thought about it a lot during his Queen's and his Father's reign. He hated his Father for a number of reasons : he had Camelot's throne and the woman he loved so much. It wasn't fair! He thought and thought more about it, but he didn't want to hurt Gwen. It was his Mother and Aunt who finally convinced him to do it :

"Why don't you follow Grand Uncles Agravaine and Tristan's plans?"

"Because I don't want to hurt Gwen."

"But you agreed to sterilize her. And to make her fall for Lancelot and to shame your Father."

"Yes I did but I don't her dead."

"You still love her?"

"Yes Mother I still so even after all these years and even after her marriage to my Father. And I even feel she doesn't deserve what you did to her, Aunt Morgana."

"Mordred, she's married to your father, you cannot possibly still love her and she's probably forgotten about you too." That touched a nerve in him and he nodded, but he still said :

"I still don't agree with hurting her."

"She won't be hurt, I'm pretty sure Sir Lancelot is going to rescue her."

"So Sir Lancelot is her knight?"

"Yes her knight in shiny armour!"

"And did you anything the like?"

"What Mother?"

"Arthur didn't know it was Gwen who couldn't have children, so he invited Sir Lancelot on their bed after knowing they made love to each other."

"Really?"

"And want to know something else?"

"What Aunt Morgana?"

"She begged me for a children's potion, because she wanted to make your Father a child."

"So she's in love with my Father now?"

"Pretty much and if that doesn't convince you, she's changed her heart : she's baptized and Christened now."

"So she's forgotten all about Avalon and us?"

"Yes pretty much."

"Thanks for telling me this, Aunt Morgana."

This was too much for him. And the more he thought about his Grand Uncles' plans, the more he agreed to it. He was going to call Gwen a Witch and force his Father to burn his own wife to the stake. He was going to do it. But before that, his aunt Elaine came to him for a love potion :

"Mordred, please make me a love potion."

"Have you fallen this much for a man who doesn't even love you back Aunt Elaine?" That ruffled her feathers a bit.

"Yes I am in love with the man."

"Don't you want his love burnt?"

"Yes and I want him for myself."

"Please make me a love potion Mordred, I'm begging of you." He was loving it when people begged, so he let his Aunt Elaine de Shallot beg with him for a few while more, then he said to her :

"But you're married to the King of Shallot yourself, don't you know it's adultery?"

"Yes I know, but I still want it, please Mordred."

"I'll tell you what, I'll make you look like Gwen and one night you'll slip into Sir Lancelot's bed and have what you want."

"You'd do that for me, Modred? What do you want from me as a payment? Jewels or money or what?"

"Nothing but for you to say Gwen is a Witch who can't have children, expose her past on Avalon, you and I will."

"Perfect, thank you Modred."

And his Aunt the Queen of Shallot seemed satisfied with his answer to her. A weeks later, she went for her vial and he said to her :

"Drink the potion sip by sip and little by little you'll be Gwen. But you must be before midnight, because it can only last for a few hours."

"Thank you Mordred, how can I repay you?"

"Just say Gwen is a Witch."

"I will."

He was an ambiguous man. On one hand, he plotted against his Queen, his Woman, on the other he was healing people appearing as a God to them. He was healing their loved ones and making them see their passed away relatives. Many people asked him, no begged him for that and he loved it. He made them beg before giving them what they wanted. He was that evil as a person. He was so busy now that he rarely saw his Aunt Morgana, his Mother or his other relatives. He lived relatively alone and was rich enough to buy himself a Manor in Camelot because he got in payment : jewels made of precious stones, silver and gold and real diamonds and emeralds. He was rolling on gold since he kept some for his use and sold some for money. He was a very busy doctor, but he wasn't heartless. If the person was too poor to pay, he'd still heal them, he just made them beg more and that was his payment. He loved it when people begged him for some things.

It was some time since he'd given his Aunt Elaine the potion to make her look like the Queen of Camelot. He wondered if it worked or not. He went to ask her in her chambers :

"So Aunt Elaine, how was the potion, did it work?"

"Yes it worked and I was Queen Gwen for a few hours and I made love to him. But I felt he didn't love me, he loved Gwen."

"Yes he's infatuated with her right?"

"I would call it an obsession. It was as if he made love to her instead of me. It wasn't worth it."

"But you're going to keep your end of the bargain?"

"Of course, I hate Guenievere, because of her, I can't have the man I love."

"Your husband doesn't love you or treat you right?" He wanted to know how was her marriage the King of Shallot, his Uncle by marriage.

"Yes he is treating me like a Lady and his Queen, but there lacks something between him and I. Something I feel for Sir Lancelot."

"I see and you got what you want."

"I got his body yes, but his heart. His heart was with Gwen when I made love to him."

"I'm sorry to hear, as long as you're willing to say she's a Witch, I'm happy with it."

"Yes, I'm going to make the crowd put some pressure on your Father. But why can't you do it yourself, oh might Mordred?"

"Stop mocking me, Aunt Elaine, nobody's going to believe a Sorcerer from Avalon. And I'm my Father's bastard child."

"Yes you're right. We live in such a judgemental society?"

"It's the people who are, not the society, Aunt Elaine."

"Perhaps, but I'm tired and thank you again for the potion. When do you want me to begin saying she's a Witch?"

"When the time's right, my Aunt Morgana and my Mother will tell you, thank you Aunt Elaine for your cooperation."

"No problem and I hate your Father as much as your Mother, Aunt and Grand Uncles do. Do you hate your Father as much?"

"I'm more jealous of him than anything else. Good night Aunt Elaine."

And his Aunt Elaine had indeed a great night, thinking only about her passionate night with her Sir Lancelot while Mordred dreamt of being with his woman, now his Father's wife.
