Episode 6 closed with a big reveal. While everyone was trying to figure out, despite their erased memories, what happened to Emma (Jennifer Morrison) in Camelot, they finally have a major clue when Henry (Jared S. Gilmore) was able to use a spell to connect with Merlin (Elliot Knight). Sadly, such magic was only able to reveal a message from the wizard that only a person named Nimue will be able to destroy the Dark One.
Who is this Nimue? Fans are excited to know this character.
Apparently, the synopsis for episode 7 entitled, 'Nimue,' will take back the viewers to a Camelot flashback. According to IBTimes , the Once Upon a Time heroes will break into the castle of King Arthur (Liam Garrigan) and steal Excalibur and reunite the sword with the Dark One's dagger. Of course, Arthur wants to use the sword for evil. However, Merlin knows how to "use the weapon to save Emma from the darkness threatening her soul."
The big question is, 'will Hook Mary Margaret (Ginnifer Goodwin), David (Josh Dallas), (Colin O'Donoghue), Regina (Lana Parrilla) and Robin (Sean Maguire) be able to steal the Excalibur? Or is bringing Zelena (Rebecca Mader) a wrong decision?
Emma will be accompanied by Merlin outside King Arthur's castle, as they also have to finish something else, including the latter's foe. IBTimes posted that, 'It's not clear who Merlin's foe is, but the mysterious person has the "sacred spark" that Merlin will need to "reforge Excalibur."'
Episode 7 synopsis tells us that one person will cause the damage that "that could derail the entire operation."
Moreover, episode 7 will also reveal the childhood of Merlin and how he got his magic. Also, it will tell us how he met Nimue, a child refugee, and how their relationship changed everything.
"Their romance starts a chain of events that touches every one of our present day heroes," the synopsis teases.
"Once Upon a Time" Season 5, episode 7 airs Sunday, Nov. 8 at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
