The episoded were good. The good finally won.

Anyway, I have some questions.

First of all, when Morgana first attacked Camelot, they managed to defeat and take over Camelot. I am sure that there were hundres, thousands of troops and knights. Not to mention the strength of the Citadel and hundreds of guards. It looked so easy.

Vice versa. When Arthur attacked Camelot to take it back. He only took several hundreds people. Some of them were only ordinary civilian. And again, they took over Camelot so easily.

So, it looks like suprise factor was the best weapon when you want to take over Camelot. Not thousands of guards, not the strength of the Citadel, not the complete weapons in armory.

Second thing, nobody was chasing Morgana after she fled. She was injured, she can't use her magic. It is just so easy to find and to capture her. Even to kill her. No attempt were made to do that. They just let her go.

Third, and I think this is the worse. Maybe some time has past (but I don't think so because it was before Morgana was healed by Aithusa). There was a war. In fact, the people had suffered two wars so close to each others (Arthus hasn't even recover from her broken ribs). So many has died, houses were burned and ruined. The palace was in total wreck too. And Arthur just decided to ignore all those thing and marry Gwen. He celebrated his own happiness above his people misery. And no one seems to object. Like Fimber has stated in Lancelot du Lac, the noble just accepted the return of Gwen. And Arthur married her in such time. People will think that Gwen is selfish and unconsiderate queen to accept the marriage in time like that.

I love Tristan and Isolde. Especially Tristan, he was man enough to accept that he was wrong about Arthur and he willing to fight for him. Too bad Isolde had to die. It would be awesome to see filler episode with them again in the future.

Real question, what sword did Arthur draw from the stone? Where did Merlin get it?
