I think that Mordred will not be on Morgana's side comepletely yet. He might not wish destruction on Camelot or for Arthur to be killed which is why he is a knight of Camelot right now. Interesting since he's also a known Druid to Arthur so his promise in herald of new age has gone even further? Or maybe Mordred is under an alias so Arthur doesn't know who he is. I hope he doesn't just appear at the beginning of the series as a knight like it did with Agravaine. If and when Mordred unites with Morgana he will have to tell her about Merlin eventually. The only reason for him not to is to use it as leverage over Merlin.

I think Merlin's magic will be revealed this series, otherwise I'll have a temper tantrum. It would be an awesome groundbreaking scene when Arthur finds out. If nothing else I want gwen to find out. I think she will actually be hard to convince because she has animosity to it because she partly blames it for her dad dying and she also would side with Arthur bc he is er husband now.

If Gaius dies, or if Merlin's mother dies bc of Mordred, merlin will go all out BAMF. He will probably set several things on fire or explode something. Either way Mordred will definitely be dead or seriously injured. If this did happen I also think Merlin might go rather dark, like when he killed Agravaine and all the other meaningless extras. That will be good to finally see another side of him.

Gwaine getting more apples... High possibility...

Morgana is always looking for Emrys, which I think is kinda dumb if I knew some guy was gonna kill me I wouldnt go looking for him. Anyway she's gonna be looking for Emrys, bc she's slightly insane and obsessed right now, but she will mostly focus on Camelot and world domination.

I want Arthur to look into the Emrys thing. It would add more tension to have both Arthur and Morgana trying fathom Emrys out. Merlin would get really nervous. After all, Morgana basically told Arthur that Emrys was trying to save him in the last episode. So IF he doesnt act like blockhead he should be able to figure that out.
