Shape-shifting villain Morgana is incredibly creepy in every form, especially as winged, demonic-looking creature. Her armed dark army is also scary: Horse-mounted mud creatures with fiery eyes, weapons (like ring wraiths in Lord of the Rings); they attack the kids, even invade Alex's home. Creepy skeleton warriors, evil trees attack the kids. Suspenseful chases/big battles between Morgana/her army and kid knights và schoolmates; at one point, Merlin looks done for. Morgana breathes fire, destroys a lot of the school, while kids use homespun weapons to lớn defeat her. Apocalyptic vision of future if kids don't succeed. Lance và Kaye start out as bullies who pick on Bedders & Alex, taunting, threatening, pushing them, making Bedders hang upside down, etc. Alex gets in a fight with Lance, who later wants lớn retaliate with Kaye as backup. Alex falls in a construction site, looks injured. School kids throw food/items at "Mertin." Alex reluctantly points his sword at his mom to get out of house. Animated battle violence in opening backstory sequence. Talk of instability throughout world: fear, crisis, division. Kids argue."> Violence & Scariness
