Who was nimway in Merlin?

Answer 1

Nimueh was a friend of Uther (Arthur's dad) and when Uther's wife Ygraine couldn't give birth to a son, Uther called Nimueh who was a powerful sorceress to help give birth to a son. Not to Uther or Nimueh's knowledge would Ygraine die.. To create a life the balance of the world had to be made. To create a life you must give a life. To save a life you must give a life. Nimueh knew that but what she did not know was that Ygraine's life would be the result of Arthur's birth. Uther sent Nimueh to be executed but she had left before he could execute her.

Nimueh was basically a sorceress that was brought to help a birth, but in the presence it accidentally killed Ygraine.
