Dalla regia mi dicono che:
a) Sì, in Firelord la madre di Mordred è Morgana
b) Il dizionario arturiano di Oxford scrive che Morgana è madre di Mordred anche in C. J. Riethmüller- Launcelot of the Lake (1848) e Francis Coutts- The Romance of King Arthur (1907).
Ecco cosa dice la mia Oxford Guide to Arthurian Literature and Legend:
Citazione:
Morgan appears in only a few post-medieval
works—until the twentieth century, when there
is a renewed interest in her character. In C. J.
Riethmuller's Launcelot of the Lake (1848) and Francis
Coutts's The Romance of King Arthur (1907),
Morgan is said to be the mother of *Mordred, as
is the case in John Boorman's movie Excalibur
(1981) and a number of modern novels, where
she is sometimes conflated with *Morgause.

Ed invece ecco cosa dice The Mammoth Book of King Arthur (anche questo è una guida)
Later texts, including Malory, make her his half-sister, along with
Morgause and Elaine, and even contrive to have her seduce
him to become the mother of Mordred.
Cosa NON VERA. Che libro barbone. Bah.
