Mine would be this, being a full season long arc.

1. No Merida at all. Have Emma meet Lancelot instead and have him join everyone in Storybrooke, with tension between him, Arthur and Gwen.

2. No underworld demon coming for Robin.

3. Emma as Dark Swan is totally nasty and targets everyone, calling them out on things they deserve and just plain screwing with them in nightmarish ways. She is even referred to in Cemelot as the prophecised "Ultimate Dark One." The reason for this is because she has no natural darkness in her and this makes her able to be consumed by the entity faster. Lilly gets her Savior Powers as a result.

4. Morgan La fae and a teenage Mordred would be included and referenced as at least partially driving Arthur to his villainous state. Morgan even attempts to became the Do herself and gets killed, making Emma go full Dark Swan in the process. She also kills Hook to innact her own modified Dark Curse, whic turns everyone in Storybrooke to stone except her family, Rumple, Zelena, and the Camelot group.

5. Merlin is in storybrooke as well and reveals the multiple savior concept and Rumple's position as the first along with the prophecy of how two saviors combined can kill the darkness forever. He then sacrifices himself to give Rumple light magic and later appears in spirit to guide the latter in using it.

6. Arthur joins the Dark Swan for for power and is killed by Gwenivere after Lancelot frees her with TLK. Zelena joins in and gets killed too{Dark Swan still sped up her pregnancy for reasons I can't be bothered to think of.

7. We'd get more Camelot-centric eps and introduce Lance's mom, the lady of the lake in one about him.

8. The arc ends with the people of Camelot, lead by a newly crowned King Lancelot and his love Gwen, departing for home while everyone else gets sucked into the Land of Untold Stories. The underworld arc would be for season seven in my variation, or 6b.

7.
