Well if they stay true to what they said in the past then the guardian is basically a person that can take the darkness, become a Dark One, and control the darkness to the point that he or she can use its power for good. This is hinted at during a conversation between Merlin and Emma when she asks him whether the darkness could be used for good and he replies that this thought is only a temptation of the darkness to lure the user into using its power and therefore falling into the darkness. At the same time Merlin states that one day it might be possible for someone to truly control the darknessb and because in the latest episode they teased it like Anastasia was going to be this person but we will see who will end up taking this role
