<P> Along with Kilgarragh the Great Dragon , Aithusa is the only other living dragon left in existence . She first appears in the episode `` Aithusa '' when as an egg , she is rescued by Merlin from Jules Borden in the Tomb of Ashkanar . Due to his powers as a Dragonlord , Merlin is able to hatch her , and her status as a White Dragon is taken as a sign of good fortune by Kilgarragh . However , this changes when she heals Morgana in `` The Sword in the Stone : Part 2 '' . In `` Arthur 's Bane Part 2 '' , she is revealed to have been imprisoned for two years with Morgana by Sarrum of Amata , and the trauma of the imprisonment was such that she is left unable to speak and walking with a noticeable limp . The episode `` The Hollow Queen '' also reveals that as Aithusa grew while imprisoned by Sarrum , the pit she and Morgana were housed in became too small for the growing dragon , and it caused her to become deformed , twisted and stunted in her growth . She is revealed to be perhaps the only being Morgana cares for , and is very much loyal to her . Morgana cares so much for Aithusa to the point where she willingly let Sarrum imprison her to prevent harm from coming to Aithusa . She participates in attacking the forces of Camelot on several occasions in Season 5 , and it is only Merlin 's powers as Dragonlord that prevent her from killing him and his allies . She also aids in forging Mordred 's sword to aid him in killing Arthur . At the Battle of Camlann , she participates in the battle itself until Merlin drives her away , though her further fate is unknown . Aithusa seems to be based on the white dragon that represented the Saxons in Arthurian legend , and is noticeably small compared to Kilgarragh , only being as large as a wyvern at around 6 or 7 feet long . Her small size is again , likely the result of her growth being stunted by imprisonment in Sarrum 's dungeons for a long period of time . </P>
