Mists of Avalon Trivia Questions
1. Ygraine was at her spinning wheel in the castle Tintagel when she had a vision. Her sister, Morgause, was hoping for a revelation about herself. Ygraine's daughter, Morgaine, was concerned for Ygraine's well-being. What was Ygraine's vision?

From Quiz The Mists of Avalon

Answer: The Lady of the Lake and the Merlin of Britain were arriving

Morgaine was startled by the sight of her mother in a trance, and Morgause, who was still single at this point in the story, was hoping that the vision included a husband or lover for herself. However, more information was coming. The two visitors told Ygraine that she was going to marry a man who wore the sign of the dragon and bear a High King of Britain. When Morgause asked to take her place, since Ygraine was married, Viviane (the Lady of the Lake) snapped at Morgause to be content because there would be a king and sons in the future for her.

2. Who was with Morgaine while she awaited the birth of her half-brother, Arthur?

From Quiz The Mists of Avalon

Answer: Her stepfather, Uther

This was a very touching scene. Uther and Morgaine sat together outside Ygraine's chamber and watched the midwives' helpers go in and out, looking at one another in hope and anxiety. When the child was born, they went into the room together and Morgaine was filled with joy when she was allowed to hold her new brother.

3. Where does Igraine encounter the future king, Uther Pendragon, for the first time?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 1

Answer: Council supper with King Ambrosius

The king was ready to appoint a successor as the Lady of Lake had foreseen his death in six months time. He appointed Uther, who made an instant connection with Igraine as they locked eyes over the table, instead of Gorloise. Gorloise resented both the appointment of Uther as King and the man's old world connection to his wife Igraine.

4. Who saves Morgaine's son after Morgause tries to kill him by exposure?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: Morgause herself

In her fevered delirium Morgaine confesses that her baby is Arthur's son as well, although Arthur has no idea. Morgause decides against killing the child, opting instead to raise him as her own and use it her advantage.

5. How was the lover of the Virgin Huntress determined?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 2

Answer: He killed the King's stag

The man who killed the King's stag turned out to be the King's son after all. It was Arthur Pendragon who became the lover of the Virgin Huntress... his sister Morgaine.

6. What does Gwenhwyfar ask Morgaine for, in order to help her conceive a baby?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: herbs

The Queen asks her for herbs, but Morgaine says instead there is a charm. I believe she did drink this "charm" based on comments she makes in anger later in the movie.

7. After Morgaine became a priestess, she remained with Viviane on Avalon for awhile. During that time she met, and found herself falling in love with, one of her own relatives. Who was that person?

From Quiz The Mists of Avalon

Answer: Lancelot

Accolon and Uriens came into Morgaine's life later in the story. Lancelot was the son of Viviane, and he came to seek his mother's blessing to enter the world of knighthood and chivalry. There was a mutual attraction between Lancelot and Morgaine, but when Lancelot met Gwynhwyfar, he forgot all the other women in the world.

8. Who appears to Arthur after Uther dies in his arms?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 2

Answer: Viviane

Arthur calls on the God of Heaven and the Goddess of the Earth for help in defeating the Saxon warriors, one of whom was the cause of Uther's death. Viviane appears and makes him swear to keep the Goddess alive in the hearts of men, and when he does swear she allows him the strength to pull the sword from the alter.

9. How does Igraine find Uther in time to warn him about his impending murder?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 1

Answer: She cuts her hand, tosses blood into the fire and sends her visage to the battlefield

Igraine's voice is heard by Gorloise as well, but her visage is only seen by Uther in his tent. She warns him that her husband, the Duke of Cornwall, is in the area surrounding his camp waiting to attack him. Caroline Goodall played Igraine. "Schindler's List", "Disclosure", "The Princess Diaries", and "Chasing Liberty" are just a few other movies she has been in.

10. By which night did Morgaine specifically tell the Queen she'd have her what she needed to help her conceive?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: Beltane Feast

Morgaine warned Gwenhwyfar that she should not be surprised if the charm works better than she expects. Indeed it did, as the King invited Lancelot into their bed to up the chances of conception.

11. How did Morgaine get out of the fortress to collect herbs needed to save her mother?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 1

Answer: She slipped out of a window

After sending her visage to Uther, Igraine was very sick. The guards, under orders from Gorloise, refused to allow Morgause or Morgaine access to the outside. So, Morgaine was able to fit through the bars on a window. Tamsin Egerton played the young version of Morgaine. She was also in the 2002 mini-series "Napoleon".

12. Which Knight of the Round Table did Morgaine fancy?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: Accolon

Ian Duncan played the Knight Accolon. He also played Brutus in the 2002 TV movie "Julius Caesar".

13. Who was it that explained the cause of the death of the Duke, Gorloise, to his family and community?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 1

Answer: King Lot of Orkney

Christopher Fulford played Lot, Morgause's way to power.

14. In his haste to ease his guilt over his night with the King and Queen, whom does Lancelot ask to marry him?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: Lady Elaine

Biddy Hodson played Elaine. When Queen Gwenhwyfar learns this news, during her grief over not conceiving yet again, she is enraged. Morgaine would have gladly married her cousin Lancelot, and she admits to him that she has yearned for him for years.

15. After Morgaine became widowed, she decided to journey back to Avalon. The mists did not let her in, however. While weeping outside the abbey at Glastonbury, which is as far as she got, Morgaine was reunited with someone. Who was it?

From Quiz The Mists of Avalon

Answer: Her mother, Ygraine

Ygraine, upon Uther's death, had taken vows as a cloistered nun at Glastonbury, where she became the Abbess. While out walking with some of the other nuns, Ygraine saw Morgaine weeping in a boat in the river. The two women embraced and wept, with Morgaine telling her mother of all the sadness she had known. Ygraine showed herself to be a woman of great wisdom and compassion.

16. Who wins in the sword fight between Lancelot and Arthur?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 2

Answer: Arthur

Lancelot comments that is what you get when you allow a King to teach you to fight. To which Arthur corrects that he is not King yet.

17. On their journey to the borders of Avalon, what color horse does Morgaine ride upon?

18. Who tricks Morgaine into agreeing to marry King Uriens?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 3

Answer: The Queen

Queen Gwenhwyfar is so upset and bitter that she tricks Morgaine into thinking that the King's son, Accolon, is the one asking for her hand in marriage. Morgaine realizes this too late and has to uphold her decision. It turns out to be the happiest time in her life, though it was short.

19. Morgaine and Gwynhwyfar were reconciled while at Glastonbury Abbey. Gwynhwyfar told Morgaine something that caused Morgaine to rush back to Camelot. What did the Queen tell her sister-in-law?

From Quiz The Mists of Avalon

Answer: Arthur was in grave danger through Mordred

Mordred had launched a campaign to discredit Arthur by bringing Gwynhwyfar's affair with Lancelot to light. Lancelot had spirited Gwynhwyfar out of Camelot and, at her request, taken her to Glastonbury where she would remain forever. Ygraine welcomed Gwynhwyfar into the convent, and there Gwynhwyfar and Morgaine put aside their differences. Morgaine rushed back to Camelot when she was told that her beloved brother was in danger.

20. What is the first thing Morgaine says to Arthur after years of being apart?

From Quiz TNT's "The Mists Of Avalon" Pt. 2

Years after taking a dying Arthur (who received his death wound in battle against Mordred) to rest on Avalon, Morgaine returned to Glastonbury Abbey and walked into a chapel where a group of women and girls were praying together.
