Why was it so hard to add the inky thing taking control of Nimue when she crushed the heart? Like, she has god-derived powers, she uses them for evil, the free-roaming Darkness is attracted to it and merges with her. That would have made sense, but no, we have none of that. I hope they get to explain the whole inky thing / vault as Nimue creating it as a fail-safe to preserve her dark powers in case anything happened to her, because that's the only thing that makes sense at this point. It would be cool to learn she did it so she could be brought back to life through the future Dark One once they could master the fully repaired Excalibur, or something like that. But I guess I'm giving the writers too much credit and it will just slip down the sink (plot)hole.

Also, TIMELINE, guys. Get a pin board, stick the episode tags on it and follow it: that's not hard for goodness' sake!

(Eskaver, I found it pretty clear that Merlin deliberately didn't want Nimue to become immortal like himself because of all the diamond-metaphor thing. That's where the story of Edward Cullen originated from, lol!) Yeah, I got that last part. And yeah, I even read Twilight, lol.
