@Morganaforever. Well Freya's not ALL dead. She came back in The Coming of Arthur part 2, which implies she is still alive in the form of a lake-woman. So she could still be involved in some way. I wish the writers had thought of that... At this point, I'll take a short ending cameo, but I mostly despair even of that, though I still have a glimmer of hope (they kept Odin's reappearnce a secret for a long time, and no one knew about Balinor before now, so maybe Freya does re-appear breifly but the writers/producers are saving it as a surprise).

Nimueh, on the other hand, isn't going to have anything to do with it for sure, since no one's seen her since the end of season 1 when Merlin killed her to save Gaius.
