That's kind of the feeling I got as well, that Merida would be introduced as part of Emma's storyline, but that does not limit her to JUST Emma.

In fact, it might be kinda interesting if part of the reason that Merida agrees to help Emma is that she finds out that Emma is Snow's daughter.

Merida being 16 in the movie, and around 21-22 now would be about right. She would have suffered the same stuck in time for 28 years fate that everyone else did. so her age would be close to right on, and having a younger Merida teach Snow archery would not be out of the question, particularly as good as Merida is.
