User blog comment:It's Good to be the Queen/No royal heir?/@comment-3012002-20120716225514

You have a point but since Arthur and Gwen have more pressing matters at hand like Camelot's continuous threats from magical and non-magical threats (AKA Morgana and her allies) I don't think the concern for an heir is necessary at the moment. Since we don't know whether the show will be conmissioned for another season, I think it might be refereneced this season as Angel said at Comic Con (in an interview) that Gwen is involved in a juicy storyline this year so we'll just have to cross our fingers and hope that this is what she meant. It would be anything but you never know. As you said, a legitimate heir would be a threat to Morgana and the child wouldn't be safe as long as she was alive so there could be a possiblity. Remember though, that most versions of the legend, Arthur and Guinevere don't have children but Arthur has illegitmate offspring (Mordred in most versions). So Gwen's case might be similar to that of her mother-in-law, the late Queen Ygraine where she wasn't able to concieve naturally and needed magic in order to concieve but died in the process but I hope that isn't the case.
