I guess the only explanation is the king's ward (or daughter), she's so important to Uther and Camelot (especially since her disappearance), that even if she's holding a big evil magic stick that is causing the war to intensify and raising an immortal army, she's still innocent and they'll let her go. Haha.

The guards will always be dumb. I guess our main characters just have 1000x the wits of them.
