Thought I might as well, give my input here, its been so long since I visited this wiki :P

Anyway, first of all a constant question I notice is coming up is how bad must things get before Arthur returns? Why wouldn't he return during the World Wars? The answer to this in my opinion is that he didn't need too, think about it like this, Arthur is destined to rise again when Albion needs him most. But Albion did not need Arthur, the war was catastrophic and terrible, but England already had its own heroes like Churchill for example. And we did survive didn't we? We survived and the Albion continues to prosper without the help of Arthur.

The time when Arthur returns is a time when the world needs him, the time when a hero must be called upon and no-one bar he, truly has the ability to be that hero. Basically when we get ourselves in a situation we can't recover from without him.

Next, I hear people saying that Arthur did not bring about the New World he promised and to that I would say, he did bring about the time of Albion, he just wasn't around to see it. He brought much of the world together in his time and his death would have inspired others. Guinevere would have gone on to lead Camelot and continue the work of Arthur, bringing together the kingdoms in her own time, Sarrum's land would have a new leader who I imagine would not dare threaten Camelot with all of its allies. Particularly when they are offering peace, Odin was a good man at heart who much like Queen Annis and arguably Morgana was clouded by bitterness so much that he made an enemy of Arthur, well now Arthur is dead and who else is there to blame for his son's death?

Whilst Arthur may not have lead the world into the time of Albion, he inspired Camelot, its allies and even its enemies into uniting under the common ideals of freedom and peace. As for not changing anything about Magic, do you think noone was grateful for the victory Merlin won them at the Battle of Camlann? Guinevere is now Queen of Camelot and she knows just how much Merlin has done for the realm, she would also learn about Gaius and perhaps other sorcerers such as Alator and Finna, with this in mind she would almost certainly take measures to legalise Magic and liberate those in Albion who are oppressed because of the powers they were born with.

Overall, in life and more so in death, Arthur paved the way to the new and free Albion we all longed for, and one day when the world truly needs Arthur above all others, he will return.
