Honestly I can't see Merlin just hanging around Avalon, alone and friendless for eternity. I would think that he would go back to Camelot to help Gwen at some point. I think he'd likely make periodic visits to Avalon but not live there forever. I mean, he's the most powerful sorcerer of all time, I would think he'd have some sort of feeling as to when Arthur would return rather than waiting around there. Plus I think if he knew Arthur as much as he said he did throughout the series, he'd go back to Camelot and help Gwen. I'm sure that's what Arthur would want. He told him never to change and if he just circled Avalon for a thousand years doing nothing, then he's changed and essentially wasted his potential. All my opinion of course, but it does not make sense to me for him to never return.
