Alice is just hearing things...because the writer should know the Darkness is all about corrupion and self-preservation. I was thinking it had more to do with the way Merlin tethered the darkness to the dagger, and that it'd be the dagger calling Alice to it, rather than the darkness. I guess it is the dagger then, because it's still Excalibur and maybe it wants to get rid of the Darkness once and for all, too. I mean, it's quite a forced explanation and I'm sure that the writers didn't pay enough attention to this detail but it could be a reasonable explanation. Anyway, I still have some doubts about the figure of the Guardian, that was introduced out of nowhere in this season while is quite an important person.
