Well, Kara was indeed very cruel. She was more of a monster than a Druid, but she had her reasons.

But do you really think Merlin isn't even the slightest bit responsible for Morgana turning evil, and now Mordred? For Morgana's case I guess he trusted the Dragon too much. He could've explained things to her, because it's quite clear Morgana had a good heart once. She believed that magic can also be a force for good, and it'll be one day, accepted in Camelot. He could have given her reassurance, made her feel better than just simply leave her like that. Even when he had to poison Morgana, I felt that he could've at least told her the truth. Yes, I know that was a tense situation, but Morgana hadn't had the slightest idea that she had been enchanted by Morgause. And can you imagine how betrayed Morgana must have felt when she realised that one of her friends had actually poisoned her?
