I really hope she appears in series 5! As for your questions, I think I can think of one or two answers. The reason Hunith was a series regular in the first season only is probably because the first season mainly involved around searching Merlin's background. The other seasons were busy with other issues, like Morgana's growing magic, Arthur and Gwen's relationship e.t.c. Why she thought Uther was a good king is probably because she wanted to make sure he would help! Also, Hunith can't know that Merlin knows about Balinor, so she acted "normal" like her son didn't know about his father. Merlin didn't want to make her worry, so he didn't talk about him and his death either. In the last question, I hope the answer is YES!
