Everyone we know seem to be looking at their wrists aso though they are looking at marks on their hands. Maybe that is where the title "Souls of the departed" comes from. And maybe Nimue is the villain for 5B. Souls of the Departed is the name of a Bruce Springsteen song. Adam Horowitz is a Springsteen fan, and has names numerous episodes after his songs.

Also, Nimue is probably the Big Bad of the 5.A arc. Her actions obviously will have severe consequences, that will lead into the 5.b arc. Regardless, I think, the Darkness will be defeated in Swan Song. Just because they choose song titles they like to name episodes, doesn't mean the title does not have an in episode meaning. You make it sould like they were just debating between Born In the USA and Souls of the Departed because they like those songs. That's not how it works. They chose Souls of the Departed because it fits the episode. If they couldn't find a song title that fit the episode, they wouldn't have used one.
