Wow, this is glorious! It's such an unlikely pairing, but you really made it work. I can just imagine them up in the afterlife always running into the various people whose deaths Merlin is responsible for. As the series continues, his death toll is getting rather high.
It's a lovely, peaceful image of the afterlife too. With Nimueh living out in the forest, and everyone avoiding the woods because of that, it has an almost fairy-tale vibe to it, with that same mix of danger and innocence.
I love Nimueh being able to watch what's happening down below more clearly because of her gift with magic. Checking in on Mordred seems like something that she'd do, and I think based from the mention in this fic that if it was possible for her to change it then perhaps she would. She helped bring Arthur into the world, after all.
The ending is lovely too, hopeful in its own way. I can just imagine them having their own fun little adventures in the afterlife, and I think being around Will might help Nimueh to get more in touch with her human side (though who knows if she'll actually like that!)
