Talk:The Death Song of Uther Pendragon/@comment-123.211.169.220-20150912005207/@comment-5674726-20150913120237

I'd say that Uther was fairly in character when Arthur spoke to him beyond the veil.

The concerns he raised, like the knighting of commoners and the marriage of a servant, were concerns I could see Uther having. It would have been out of character for him to be pleased to see the First Code overturned or to jump for joy at the thought of a servant for a daughter-in-law.

It made perfect sense to me that he would be disappointed in some of the choices that Arthur had made as King and that he would fear for his future and the future of the kingdom, and rightly so, as the series finale would prove. However, he still exhibits concern for Arthur, warning him not to stay or he will be trapped, and tells him that he loves him.

It's only after he is dragged back into the world that he is out of character, so much so that he tries to kill his son.
