The Story Of King Uther (Merlin prequel)

720p (KZbin ruined the quality of text:-/)
I spent 2 months on this, 2 f*cking months!:D Never again! I wanted to delete that SV file so many times, but I always decided not to! And I think I decided well:) This is the resoult of my work!:)
Story:
Uther Pendragon is crowned king of Camelot.
Vivianne and her husband Gorlois become Uther's friends and start to live in Camelot.
Uther starts to feel something for Vivianne.
Uther meets the love of his life, Igraine.
Vivianne is in love with Uther and she can't stand Igraine.
Igraine and Uther gets married and she becomes queen.
Igraine cannot concieve.
Uther is desperated, he cant leave kingdom without and heir, so he makes Vivianne his mistress. Gorlois is away.
Igraine finds out about Vivianne and Uther.
Uther regrets having affair with Vivianne and he confesses his love to Igraine.
Vivianne is pregnant and she gives birth to a girl, Morgana. Since it isn't a boy, noone can know that she is Uther's daughter.
Uther, desperated that he has no male heir goes to Nimueh to ask for her help in concieving future king. She uses magic.
Gorlois comes back after months, he finds his wife with baby, he knows Morgana is Uthers, but he loves her as his own.
Igraine gives birth to the son, Arthur.
Igraine is dying because of difficult labour, and Uther is devastated.

Live goes on.
After 10 years Gorlois is killed in battle.
After another 12 years Morgana becomes evil, Arthur king.
Uther is dead.

This was fantastic, but I feel no sympathy for Uther. None- & the sympathy I felt for Merlin & Gaius has just about died - it feels absurd that the three of them can do the things they've done, & get away with them; I may not like 'screaming evil' Morgana, but I certainly feel a lot more sympathy for her (even if I personally would have handled things differently, had I been in her shoes). Yes, Uther as a king may have been in a bind with the lack of a son- & you can make an effort to understand the potential political implications, but what he did was *still* unforgivable - I don't think he was he kind of person who'd have cared if it had been some random's life that was the price. He wanted what he wanted, & he didn't want to lose. It was basically genocide, that resulted from his rage: druids, magic-users, & species extermination: magical creatures.

I have no words to describe how utterly beautiful this is. I honestly believe this is one of the best Merlin vids to ever be made, it's so creative and you portrayed Uther's story perfectly. Thank you for this gem

[@JulieWinchester]

Someone needs to make a fanfiction from this video. Or BBC needs to turn it into a tv show.

[@Redhopeproductions]

Oh WOW! This is just stunning and very haunting! Your manips were incredible - I believed every second of it! The part where Uther condemns Vivian to death was just heartbreaking and yet so genius! Great, great work!

[@captainfreya]

This is SOOO clever! Loved the way you pieced the story together. It was all so easy to follow because the manips were so good. Loved it!

[@samitos_2523]

I loved this video, it was awesome. Your casting choices, voice overs and editing was done so very well.

[@TwiniTwini]

I didn't think I could ever feel sympathy for Uther in any light but this video makes me feels. :'( Uther my poor baby. Your editing is absolutely amazing and seamless and oh my god I am lost for words. Thank you so much this video (and all of your others) are amazing. Good job you amazing soul!

Wow, Ester, you've really outdone yourself here! What an amazing retelling of Uther's story. I was hoping somebody would do this one day! I wish Merlin had a flashback to something like this.
