I find almost certain that King Lot will have a plotline (minor or major). He was mentioned in the hunter's heart and the sword in the stone, the last episodes of series 4, so he must have something to do with next series. My theory is that he will form an alliance with Morgana. He gets betrayed and killed by her, and his kingdom falls to her hands. Magic will rule in her kingdom and the dochraid's vision will come true. However, it's most likely that it will be a corrupt and cruel kingdom. Then Morgana would try to destroy Camelot with her magical army. That would be the best moment for Merlin to reveal his magic. Mordred will eventually have to fit in this plan somewhere, especially if it is the last season. Morgana could also try to cause harm to Hunith or Ealdor in general, so that she would force Merlin to come out. Since she was a lonely witch this year, I think it's logical for her to become a warlord next year, so that she poses an even bigger threat.
