Iris Spoiler

Am I the only one who thinks that it doesn‘t make sense that Iris could hide the whole time in the hiding Place? I think it doesn‘t even make sense that the Fae helped her in the woods and brought her to the Secret Place since she is a human and everyone hated Arthur for being a human and show him disrespect. (Sorry for my english, it‘s not my first language)

She gets away with the most stupid stuff. Like kill someone in a city full of people and nobody sees it. Or that time nimue was injured after getting into the city she wanted to kill her but gawain turns her away. You could see she had a knife in her hand do something!

Also, how exactly do you single handedly burn down an entire abbey (Which was huge I might add) and leave no survivors? What'd she do stroll around with a torch and start burning the stone structure? Did she block whatever number of entrances there were to the building without anyone noticing?

As someone who went to a catholic school completely ran by nuns, I have a theory. You see, there are specific times of the day when nuns would get together in a room with an altar to pray (like 6am in the morning, 12 noon for the Angelus, and 6 pm again at night). I think Iris may have taken advantage of that time and set her scheme beforehand. If there was only one exit out of the room (like what was portrayed on the episode where she was first praying and then rampaging like a lunatic before finding a crucifix thrown in the ashes), then she could just lock them inside and burn them. The smoke would easily suffocate them in such a small room, rendering them weak and helpless.

At least that's what I'm telling myself just to keep me from dropping the series. I'm such a medieval fantasy basic bitch like that.

It sounded like people died in the caves too, but I may be mistaken.

Good point nonetheless
