I agree, MerlinNimueh, a return would be interesting. She was essential for the entire plot in the first place. Her doing caused Uther to start the Great Purge which was the very reason for really everything that has happened on the show so far. Without the Great Purge/ban of magic, nothing would have been possible the way we saw it on the show, not just the tiniest little thing. Without Nimueh, there wouldn't be Arthur and there wouldn't have been a ban of magic, Merlin wouldn't have a destiny, Uther probably would have been the king that Arthur is now destined to be.

In a fantasy story or a tv show at all, a story for a character can be over as well as be refreshed or continued. I for one don't see a problem to have characters return because there are multiple possibilites to create a believable reason and a continuation of their story.

The show has indeed changed. In the beginning it was about magic and Merlin, and Nimueh played a part in it, was integrated in the magic subject and the story even before the first season of the show. Now it's about Arthur and the Round Table and magic is a subplot. I would choose Nimueh and magic and everything that had to do with it over the Arthurian legend at anytime.

I don't think that Nimueh will ever return but I wouldn't mind if she did.
