Merlin again.

Okay, so this week it's confirmed that Merlin/Gwen and Arthur/Morgana are OTPs, the storyline was some nonsense about demonic cholera, and the Big Bad of the series was revealed as ... Nimue.

But did any of that bother me? No, I was too busy wondering how Gwen knew the word "sandwich"...

In Guardian of the Balance by Irene Radford, the only Arthurian novel on my bookshelf, Nimue feigns love for Merlin in order to manipulate him. One thing she wants him to do is to break his geas of celibacy, which he broke once before (otherwise the whole novel couldn't be written from the perspective of his daughter) but if he breaks it again the gods will take away his gift of prophecy etc.
