she is one of many deities worshiped in hyboria invoked by the sumerians matcha and nemaine
she is well known as the goddess of war because of her ability to orchestrate victory in battle
infused the outcome of the war and predict the death of warriors in battle morgan the goddess
was also called the triple goddess because in most cases she appeared in many places with her
two sisters named matcha and bod in other strategic cases she would appear as a crow
which most people mistook for a raven she uses the symbol to win battles by causing fright to
her opponent at war by flying overhead otherwise it was a sign of encouragement to her warriors
she also used this to pass messages the symbol with blood meant that blood was about to be shed
morgan was said to derive joy in fighting she enjoyed bloodshed suffering and delighted in the
deaths of great kings and heroes however it wasn't all doom and gloom with her as she made several
attempts to save and help men avoid bloodshed this made people consider her as a goddess with
dual personalities morgan also had the power to favor or sabotage any side in a battle
she could serve as a messenger or carry out actions on her own
the goddess morgan was said to be the daughter of ernmas a mother goddess who was the daughter of
niwada king of tuata di danan but her father remains unknown to date she had two sisters
which were bad and matcha this trio made up the triple goddess representing the sovereignty and
spirit of ireland her brothers were koskar fiacha glon gnim and olom the goddess had a husband
named dagda the great god and chief of tuata de danan who constantly came to her for prophecy
before any battle this made her associated with several sacred and natural sites across ireland
the first recorded incident that happened during this century was when the new king of tuatha
titanan instructed morgan to predict the outcome of the conflict between the fomorian tribes and
their land and she predicted war hearing this tuata di tanan prepared for battle against the
fomorians while morgan's husband the chief of the land sought his wife for a prophecy morgan
prophesied that the land would emerge the winner of the battle but it would come with a terrible
prize she also planned to slay the fomorian king and bring two hands full of his blood and kidneys
to the river unshin for sacrifice when the day of the battle finally came the gods and warriors
gathered together to fight the fomorians at the second battle of moitura morgan brought pursuit
death and subjugation to the battlefield not long after the battle started it quickly turned
into a bloodbath unfortunately for the goddess her grandfather was slain and her husband was brutally
wounded she joined the frey when she saw this and ended the battle with her magical poem and battle
prowess this caused the femorians to flee from her and perished in the sea at the end of the fight
morgan and her people celebrated their victory with a song and they lived peacefully after that
morgan is said to be a pathway of reincarnation compressed into a mirror giving her access to
guide the souls she does this by carrying the souls on her wings and causing them to be reborn
her other role as a goddess is associated with the hunting falcon instead of turning to a raven
she becomes a falcon that guides the mage or heater as a helper she guides the hunter to his
goal in the forest as a goddess of initiation people searching for wisdom enter her cauldron
although this process was described as very dangerous those who sought after her
ended up dead or being destroyed by the very knowledge they sought
the first incident of such was recorded when two men named taliasen and caridwen they both wanted
great wisdom but the goddess adjusted talison the worthy of the pair and she granted him
wisdom at the detriment of keratin who would become duller as his companion became wiser
the goddess morgan and the first century hero named kuchilain one of the unforgettable moments
in the lifetime of the morgan was her meeting with a mighty warrior named kachelain who was said to
be one of the great and mighty heroes of first century ireland the goddess's first encounter with
kuchelen was in a forest when he was defending the province of ulster the goddess was also in
that area chasing a heifer when ulster saw her he mistook her for a thief and challenged her
as he tried to attack her she transformed into a raven which gave her a way to ulster as the
goddess morgan he immediately apologized to her and promised to pay her back for his ignorance
they both went on their way that day but after some time morgan appeared to kachelain
before another raid and expressed her love to him he rejected her despite her immense beauty
and set some insulting words to her again this wasn't taken lightly by morgan
and she took the form of a cow an eel and that of a wolf to attack him when she transformed into an
eel she jumped towards kitchelain and tripped him he punched the eel multiple times and managed to
injure it the eel transformed into a huge wolf and ran to the herd of cattle near where they
were and drove them towards kitchelain fortunately for cochilean he managed to grab his sling and a
stone and fired it into the eye of the goddess which made her go blind temporarily the goddess
quickly transformed again to a cow riled up the other cattle and dispersed them towards kitchelain
he managed to dodge the cattle and hit the goddess with a stone that broke her leg after all these
kuch helene prevailed and survived the raid that day following his victory after this
raid morgan appeared to kitchelin in the form of an old woman leading a cow the old woman
was one-eyed and had a cracked rib and a broken leg the woman offered to chilean three drinks of
milk these drinks were said to be a symbol of the appellation to heal her wounds eventually
all of her injuries were healed entirely due to the blessing that was provoked from kachalene
after some moments kachilan recognizes the injuries of the old woman as one related to
the wound he inflicted on the goddess some time ago and he felt terrible for what he had done
a few days after the incident morgan announced an impending battle by appearing as a withered
back to kitchelin as he washed his clothes which were covered in blood by the riverside
she warned him not to eat dog meat if he was going to survive the battle in an unfortunate
turn of events kachilan journeyed to a land where it was forbidden to refuse the gift of your host
the old woman who hosted him ignorantly offered him dog meat which he eventually ate because of
the land tradition the war commenced and kachilian got brutally wounded but he vowed to die on his
own terms tying himself to a stone there a crow landed on his shoulder and he died shortly after
after the events that happened in the first century the name morgan became a title passed
from one woman to the other along with the powers the next host of the goddess received
the name after people were killed and wounded in a village by roman legions there were two injured
men named mora and celtic druids talison these men offered themselves as a sacrifice to morgan
to cause an incarnation of themselves so that one day a powerful warrior will be born to avenge the
village and their deaths these men empowered a wooden staff carried by moira oak staff of the
druids and made an oath many centuries passed and it came to pass that a girl warrior in ireland
met with morgan and sought supernatural power this was how she got possessed with the next
incarnation of morgan the next transfer of power and title occurred in 1080 and is believed that
