Hello Broman.

Perhaps I misunderstood what you said about Arthur learning about magic involved in his birth. Do you mean that this time Uther himself should have told him or that he should have learnt of it at all? In season 4 he suddenly knew about it even though in season 2 Merlin convinced him that Morgause had lied. I have no idea why this reveal happened in the off and not for us to see, which disappointed me very much, but someone has told him and I suppose it was Agravaine. I find every reason out of anger a bad choice for Arthur to send his own father back to the world of the spirits, not knowing what awaits him there and not caring about his father's soul. This was another thing that annoyed me when wathing *The Death Song of Uther Pendragon*. The relationship between Arthur and Uther has already been destroyed with what happened in this epsiode and I am so disappointed! They left Uther now being someone completely alone since in the end before he died, Arthur was the only one standing by his side while everyne else abandoned him. Is there anyone left who likes or loved Uther now that even Arthur wanted to get rid of him? They should not have made him an evil soul and by that being ripped of everything that made him human because now he has lost his wife, his children and his friends. This was a very mean and almost sadistical way to conclude his character.

TBH, I didn't like anyone in this epsiode. Gaius, Merlin and Arthur dispappointed me too. It was as if they had to deal with some stranger, a random spirit but not Arthur's father and Gaius' friend. Merlin being cold towards him and almost triumphing was annoying too.
