@Alethia II - that may be so, but it still doesn't change the fact Mithian would have been the consolation prize for Arthur's heart. Towards the end of 5x04, the scene with Rodor being treated by Gaius, Arthur's in the room with Mithian saying farewell. Then he walks to a smiling Gwen and they leave the room side by side. The camera cuts to Mithian with a sad look on her face, watching them leave. She realized she never had a chance, that she would have been a rebound bride offered up to smooth over a land dispute. No matter the rank it's not a good foundation to start a marriage. Love has to be there from the beginning, not coming in hopefully as time goes on.
