The only problem with this is Morgana is a contemperary of Arthur, and Arthur is a contemperary of Lancelot, and Lancelot was the same time as Snow and Charming, so I can't see Morgana being the first Dark One, as Rumple has been it for 200 years, and Zoso was before him. I could still see the Dark One come from Arthurian legend, especially if Merlin is The Sorcerer, but it would have to be like an apprentice of Merlin who went dark or something. I got a weird and unfinished theory of her being the Dark One while Merlin was the Light One (or something like that). When she was on the edge of death she reserved her soul in the dagger and when her powers were restored she got out again around the time of the Arthur story, but her dark energy was still stored inside of the dagger thus allowing the next one to kill someone with it become the Dark One.
