I actually really enjoyed this. I agree that having it all being magically manipulated seems very convenient... but it was a take on the Camelot love triangle that I didn't see coming (and I had thought was impossible w/Lancelot dead and all)... so I'm always impressed by plot twists I didn't expect.

And I totally agree about Elyan! That entire scene, w/Gwen leaving, seemed so off without her brother even showing up to say good bye.

I really can't be mad at Arthur, he handled his pain pretty well. It is hard to be as forgiving as he was when you consider the betrayal.... But there is plenty of room for forgiveness (will someone find that bracelet??).
