I haven't really seen any episodes with Freya yet, just short clips, but something about her caught my imagination. Anyone who knows me at all well will know that I don't really care for romance much, but tragic romance as the backdrop to another tale or as part of another plot invariably captures my imagination. (Sometimes I feel as if I'm the only one.) As is usual with such characters, either you love Freya, or you hate her.

Also, I was a bit confused about Freya as the Lady of the Lake, and Excalibur. I always thought that, after she died, Freya became the spirit of the Lake of Avalon, yet at the same time she is corporeal enough to lift and catch a sword. I assume that this is part of the lake's power, and she can not leave the lake.

What's your opinion on Freya? Please, I'd love to hear it! :-)
