By nature, gentle and playful Morgen has nonetheless had to take on a role of leadership within her pantheon after its fall forcing to make hard and uncomfortable decisions.
Morgen or Tailtiu is the fifth or middle child of her ‘sisters’. She and her sisters represent different aspects of womanhood and are essentially different aspects of the same entity or deity. Because of this Tailtiu will often use plural personal pronouns we/us etc.
Originally Morgen and her sisters were minor goddesses who tended the golden apples of immortality for the Celtic gods and guided women through various points in their life. It was only after the Roman conquest of Britain that she and her sisters took on a role of leadership after granting asylum to the Druids fleeing the Romans.
She was lovers with Ambrosius Aurelius (grandfather of Arthur Pendragon) and is the fairy queen mentioned in the ballad Tam Lin.
