I think Merlin will die in Arthur's arms. Arthur will live and because of his best friend and his years of selfless sacrifice, he will accept magic back into the land.

Also I think Arthur might discover Merlin's secret in The Kindness Of A Stranger because the first promo of the entire season 5 showed Merlin and Arthur standing on different sides of a fire, with Arthur looking very shocked possibly betrayed. In the episodes personal promo, it shows the knights and Merlin on different sides of a fire. If the hooded person who stands by Merlin as he falls isn't Morgana, than I think Morgana doesn't find out at all!

The next episode looks like it has Mordred bonding over with a girl- and a picture title said the girl's name was Kara. So maybe she's a love interest and something bad happens to her, by Arthur's hand. Merlin, who's secret has been found, is rather absent, maybe watching the turn of events.

The final two episodes are very unclear, apart from the fact that it will be concluding ending and that there WILL be a battle and characters will die!

This is just a speculation.
