Part 12
Months pass and both Ygraine and Vivienne carry Uther's child. Uther couldn't be happier. His chances of having a son and heir were good.
Vivienne was the first to give birth. When she brought forth a daughter, she knew Uther would not be happy. She was right.
Uther threw a tantrum and accused Golois of being the child's father. He went to look for Golois to challenge him in battle, only to find him dead in his chambers. Uther started drinking and was passed out on his throne a few hours later.
Ygraine came to see Vivienne after Uther found Golois. "Vivienne, do you have a way out of here?"
"I was hoping Golois would take me away but hes dead and I may be dead soon myself." Vivienne held her daughter in her arms. "You had better hope the child you carry is a boy or we will both be dead."
"I know." Ygraine put her hand on her belly. "I may have a way out for you. The physician will get you to safety. He has contacts out of Uther's reach."
"What will happen to you?" Vivienne asked.
"I will be fine. He can't kill me as easily as he can kill you. I will send Gaius to you. He will know what to do."
"Why are you doing this?" Vivienne asked. "You should hate me."
"Our children are siblings. That makes us family. Would you not do anything for family?"
"I suppose so." Vivienne looked down at her daughter. "I have named her Morgana. Would you like to hold her?"
"Please." Ygraine held out her arms as Vivienne handed over Morgana.
"Promise me that if anything happens to me, she will go to the Holy Isle to be trained."
Ygraine looked down at the sweet face of the baby girl. "I promise as long as you promise to take my child and flee if I should die in childbirth."
"I promise." Vivienne nodded.
Ygraine handed the baby back to her mother. "I will let you rest." Ygraine stood up and left the room.
