So in His Father's Son, the fresh king Arthur was persuaded by his uncle Agravaine to slay Caerleon if he refused a treaty, after they caught him raiding Camelot with his men.

Arthur tried to persuade Caerleon and tell him he didn't want this. He said they should have a treaty like their fathers did with each other. Arthur killed Caerleon when he refused the treaty. His body was supposedly handed back to the kingdom and Annis vowed revenge and prepared her army for attack. Arthur snuck into her territory and tried to personally talk to the queen, to prevent bloodshed. She slapped him across the face, but then granted him two favours- to withdraw her army from attack and have two champions fight, Arthur being Camelot's, and also to rescue Merlin who was caught trailing behind Arthur as well.

When Arthur defeated the queen's champion, he spared the champion's life. This action alone created a treaty between the lands. Years later, Annis allowed Arthur passage through her kingdom and to stay the night.



She acknowledged they were great allies.

So a few things to consider.. did you expect them to be this close or did you expect her to still be a little bitter, and did you or did you not get the impression she forgived Arthur too easily?
