Yes I definitely agree about him wanting to save Arthur. But I do not think that Merlin likes Mordred: he has been suggesting from the beginning of Series 5 that he should be killed. They have had some friendly moments, but I do not think that Merlin is anywhere close to liking him. I think that he was so upset more cause he was giving up the future he had wished for a long time.
