I don't see any reason to assume that Merlin wouldn't go back. His goal, with Arthur, was to create a just and fair kingdom, united in peace with the other Kingdoms of Albion. Arthur had started do a lot towards that end, though Morgana thwarted the peace. Now with Morgana gone, the Saxon's wouldn't have been as strong, but still would threaten the peace that Camelot seeks. I would think that Merlin would naturally return to Camelot to help Gwen as he helped Arthur. In the Disir, we heard the Disir admit that Arthur had made Camelot a fairer and more just land, but the missing piece was the acceptance of magic and the old religion. That last piece of the whole plan was something that Merlin and Gwen could have attained together. Gwen told Gius that she was happy to know that Merlin was the Great Dragoon/Emrys. He showed her and everyone else how magic could be used for good. Merlin would returned to Camelot to let them all know that they had lost both great good, and evil, Arthur and Morgana were dead. It seems ridiculous almost to think that after all the years that Merlin worked with Arthur, and had the main goal of creating a just, fair, and peaceful kingdom, that he would abandon that just because Arthur wasn't there. No, Merlin would continue to help Gwen in honor of Arthur. The very last scene only shows us that Merlin is still alive in modern times, and that he returns to visit Avalon. We see him walking by Avalon with a bag over his shoulder, he looks more like a traveller than a local resident. Oh please let there be a Merlin movie where Arthur comes back and joins Merlin to help bring peace and justice to what was Albion!
