Nimueh is a Goddess to me. She deserved so much better. Uther BETRAYED her, and people consider her the bad guy. She was once an innocent girl-he changed her. Uther can rot

Ok but Nimueh is THE high priestess of the series.
She was the only priestess who truly seemed to actually care about what the Old Religion had to say. She wasn’t a good person but never acted like a “psychopath”. She never underestimate Merlin.
This character is so interesting that I’m not convinced she would fully support Morgana and Morgause. Yeah she would have joined them, but I don’t think she would have “obsessively” tried to kill Merlin and Arthur. They are her enemies, yes, she tried to kill them, but she didn’t truly want them dead. And that would be a problem for Morgana/Morgause.
Nimueh knows about the prophecies. She knows about Merlin and Arthur’s destiny. She literally wanted to put Arthur on the throne by herself and she kept dancing around Merlin’s because she had sussed who he was and wanted the opportunity to recruit him.
The way she kept dancing around Merlin’s request to take his life, and how she said numerous times that she had no control over who lived or died but it seemed to make sure it avoided Merlin and when Gaius requested his life suddenly it was very accurate Imao. She knew what she was doing.
It would be so cool to see a villain also try to fulfill the prophecy but in their own twisted way.
She shouldn’t have died!
