Morgan le Fay Morgan le Fay was a queen, with a castle in the country of Gorres . She could do magic for bad things. King Arthur did not know that Morgan le Fay hated him.

Queen Morgan le Fay sent some knights to kill King Arthur. The fight began. He could not hurt the other knights with his sword, because the sword was not Excalibur! It was a sword from Morgan le Fay’s magic. It looked the same as Excalibur, but it was different. When the other knight hit Arthur with his sword, it hurt him. He hit the knight on the helmet with his broken sword — so hard that the knight fell down and his sword fell from his hand. Arthur quickly took the knight's sword. It was Excalibur !
