The high queen intervenes to break their relationship to prevent the loss of honor (according to some scholarship, possibly also because of Guinevere's perception of Morgan, with her kinship and close relationship with Arthur, as a rival in political power[72]). Possible influence by elements of the classical Greek mythology sorceresses or goddesses such as Circe and especially Medea (who, similar to Morgan, are often alternately benevolent and malicious),[7][11] and other magical women from the Irish mythology such as the mother of hero Frech,[12] as well as historical figure of Empress Matilda,[11] have been also suggested.
