I keep wondering what was the point of the Diamir? I mean, after all the prophecies mess, I would expect for Merlin to ask the Diamir several questions, so at least he can have a good plan of how to fulfill his destiny. But no, he only asks her about Arthur's bane. The Diamir says Arthur's bane is himself and not Mordred, so this seems to point to the fact prophecies are not absolute at all. But Merlin keeps acting as they are, so, he doesn't learn anything from the Diamir.
