In the Western legends, the ending for the legendary magician, Merlin was such:
In all his life, Merlin appeared to be constantly avoiding women. It was as though there was a natural rejection toward women within his heart.
In the end, he still fell in love with a woman.
Thus, a tragedy came to pass.
Merlin fell in love with a woman and taught that woman some witchcraft. He mentored her to become a witch. At the same time, due to his deep love for that woman, he revealed the secrets of his magic to that woman, thereby giving her knowledge of his weakness.
In the end, the witch backstabbed Merlin, imprisoning him in an oak house within a forest before using witchcraft to kill Merlin.
One of the legends stated that the woman had taken advantage of the fact that Merlin was sleeping to cast a spell on him, sealing him within an oak tree, causing Merlin to die a miserable death from the inside.
With his dying breath, Merlin cursed out at all the women in the world.
