The End of season 5 did not make me breathless; it made me speechless and very sad. It was no fulminant end, it was a disaster. All that Merlin lived for and worked for had not become reality. No one except Gaius knows about his extraordinary talent. Where is his victory? We wanted to see Arthur to live with and to handle this knowledge, not to die with it. Sorcery is still not allowed in Camelot, the sorcerers do not live in peace. Arthur never said to Merlin that they are friends.

Gaius told Gwen that Merlin will take care of Arthur and will save Arthur, but Merlin failed. Arthur died almost alone in the woods. He did not see Camelot and Gwen again; she lost her loved husband. She can’t trust Merlin any longer. As Morgana said, Arthur only won a battle, but not the war. Arthur had no chance to unite Albion. Maybe his wife does in future. But he is dead. He has no heir to the throne except Gwen is pregnant and he can’t be the one and future king, because he is dead. If maybe someday in the very far future he will come back, all people of his kingdom will be dead since hundreds of years. I read on internet that it was a consequent end, but as the series never was historical correct it didn’t need an end like in the legend of Arthur. In my opinion to many questions of the story are not answered yet.
