The Land of Magic discussion

[Arwen17]

So what is the land of magic to Mab?
A home, a stronghold?

Could she survive if it didn't exist?

Why does she always return to it?

She only spends large amounts of time in the mortal realm when Mordred was a child, but otherwise she always goes back.


Merlin had a "coming home" feeling when he first went.

Do you suppose humans would feel out of place there?
Mordred went there for awhile, but he's human(mostly).

Was that other world always there? Or did she specifically create a world for herself somehow?

Excellent thread !!

I think it could be a bit of both really, it was her home she lived there, but it was also a stronghold too I'd imagine, it would be like if you lived under water but could go to dry land with the ability to breath.

Yeah I think she would have but in an opposite sense without her it probably just withered and died. But I dunno cause I wasn't there

Mmmm, closest she has to home? Some sort of comfort to her? Maybe she was more powerful there? There is also the fact that her people live there, I think that would draw her back. She is Queen Mab so I assume it's like if a king or queen left there country.

Then again you could always say if you got the choice between the normal world and the Land of Magick where would you go?

Maybe that was because he was around people like him? Or maybe it was just the fact he was coming to Mab. Ambrosia brought him up but I always see some twisted maternal like between Mab and Merlin.

Mordred was a brat who probably thought he belonged there over all though I think a human would either be entranced or terrified. They'd be feeble next to a whole land of magickal creatures, but Mordred had Mab so they wouldn't hurt him.

I think she created it for herself, perhaps I'm wrong but it sounds like the sort of thing Mab would do. Or maybe Mab and the Land of Magick came together at the same time.

Well there also might be a magical connection between her and her realm. I could have been the place, were the magic from the earth concentrated in all her gems and crystals and she kept returning there to recharge her energies....
