I hope they will do King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, Merlin, the Lady of the Lake and Fairy Morgan. Maybe They will brin back Sir Lancelot! After all "Round Table" is a fairytale/legend/poem! The fact of the matter is that they have already been doing Greek Mythology, since season 1. So Greek Mythology has just as much of a chance as King Arthur for appearing more on the show. Darling there isn't the greek mythology in Once Upon a Time: They did King Midas in a medieval style, like a fairytale (after all, King Midas is a fairytale) and I think Poseidon is more "King Triton" than the God. Medusa, well, she's an exception but She appeared only for a one episode. Once Upon a Time is based from fairytale (and sometimes books), not from the greek mythology so It would be a mistake doing Hades/Zeus' storylines for me. And, King Arthur, why not? It's perfect! But i don't mind the idea of a evil Emma. It doesn't matter how they were done, twisting things is the whole point of Once, the fact is they are all from Greek Mythology. We've also had a Siren, Pandora's Box, and a reference to Pegusus. They are clearly doing Greek Myths and to deny this fact will only lead you to be shocked if we ever do get a big Greek Myth arc down the line. We don't know what other things they will include from Greek Myths on the show, as there are hundreds of characters in Greek Mythology, but I feel confident in saying we will see more of them down the line. Also, I'm totally fine with King Arthur being on the show, seeing as they have already confirmed Camelot, Merlin, and Lancelot exist on the show. Sirens in the greek mythology were birds, so I think the 2x03 Siren is based from the Lady of the Lake (like the title of the episode). And, how do you know there will be a Greek Myths storyline? I'm sure they will do the duet dark Emma-Lilith (Lilith will appeair in the season 5) and the greek mythology would be a very terrible mistake, like Frozen or Victor Frankenstein. Once Upon a Time is based from fairytales, fairytales like Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, Jack and the Beanstealk, Hansel and Gretel, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Rumplestilskin ecc. If they will want to do a Greek Mythology arc they would do the show "Once Upon a Myth" with Zeus, Hercules, Aphrodite, Medusa ecc. Sirens have been depicted multiple ways (although always female) so Once's siren can be a shapeshifting humanoid. She is both a siren and the Lady of the Lake, btw, as many characters on Once are more than one thing. As for how do I know there will be a Greek Myth storyline, I don't, but I think there is a strong possiblility. Finally, Once is not just about fairy tales, the show is about stories, and so therefore any iconic story is fair game. Correct! Now, no one's to say we are going to have a pantheon of party animals, but a twist on the narrative. We don't even know how religion or deities work on Once. Just as Snow's middle name must be Perseus, even some of the characters we know can be those heroes of old.
