    Merlin’s voicemail alluded to Nimue, who many of us know from Arthurian mythology. Many have speculated that she was the first Dark One. Did you opinion change based on Merlin’s message? Where is Merlin now? And how will Nimue be helpful?

    I figure sadly that Merlin is dead. That somehow Emma defeated him. Why? I guess because he is the only one who can take away her powers and so she took him out.

    . Did you opinion change based on Merlin’s message?

    Oh yah. He wants them to seek out Nimue? I figured that was something to be avoided….but apparently she is a good guy? Hmmm… I still don’t trust her. I think, if she still lives, she lives without her powers and IF she helps them free Emma of the darkness, she will take it into herself once more and become the dark one again. Power is tempting.

    Maybe it’s the first Dark One who killed Merlin and used his heart to cast this dark curse.

    But Merlin seems to be in favor of the SB’ers finding Nimue, which is why I’m scratching my head.

    “Has anybody seen my son Nimue?” lol

    I think that it’s another name for the Lady of the Lake? Or could it be Morgan le Fay? Or both?

    What if the dark one coming after Merlin wasn’t Emma or Nimue. What if it was THE dark One. What if it was Hades coming to kill Merlin?

    It is another name for the Lady of the Lake. They said they aren’t bringing in Morgan (and least not explicitly. Emma’s more of a stand in for her)
