I do think you're jumping the gun here, but it is possible.

If Merlin did die, then Emma would have had to be the one that killed him, since only the Dark One has the power to kill Merlin. It is not jumping the gun at all, since Nimue now believes that Emma will use Excalibur to snuff out the Light. Merlin foresaw two outcomes, to their journey.... one where Emma resists the Darkness, the other where Emma becomes the most powerful Dark One. What if both predictions come true?
