The Dark Ones (or Chyornye) are a sapient, evolved species of humans in the Metro 2033 universe, adapted to survive high radiation. They are tall, dark, bipedal beings with telepathic abilities that often induce madness in humans. While initially viewed as antagonistic monsters, they are actually peaceful beings seeking co-existence.
The Dark Ones (Russian: Чёрные or "black ones") are a sapient species descended from humans who survived the nuclear apocalypse and adapted to the new world. Unlike Humanimals, which are also derived from humans, Dark Ones are more adapted to the heavy radiation levels in cities such as Moscow.
The Dark One is an antagonistic cosmological force in The Wheel of Time television series. The Dark One is part of the mythology of the series, representing evil, chaos, and destruction, and he aims to remake the world in his image, or destroy it entirely.
As Emma looked into the dagger, its display rolls back the names of the previous Dark Ones, until they saw Nimue, who appeared to them, as she was the original Dark One.

In the Bible, God uses darkness to represent evil, sin, unbelief, and death, and he uses light to represent goodness, holiness, faith, and life. It's interesting to see that contrast of darkness and light on the two most important days in the history of the world: Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
For Metro 2033, there is an "Enlightened" ending, where Artyom makes a decision of saving or destroying the Dark Ones, and a "Ranger" ending, where Artyom simply destroys them by the orders of Hunter.

Merlin (1889), is a verse play by Professor John Veitch, with only three characters: Merlin, "Gwendydd (The Dawn) - His twin sister", and "Hwimleian (The Gleam) - His early love".
Merlin loves Arthur due to a powerful, destined bond, seeing him as the future great king who will bring peace and justice, while also developing a deep, protective friendship where he admires Arthur's good heart beneath a sometimes-annoying exterior, leading to intense loyalty, sacrifice, and a love that producers confirmed as a central "love story" in the BBC series.
Rumplestiltskin is the Wish Realm version of the original Rumplestiltskin and the final antagonist of Season 7 and the series of ABC's Once Upon a Time as a whole.
He is immortal and his immortality started when he became the dark one therefore he is physically the same age he was when he became the dark one but he's technically about 300 years old because he has been on earth for about 300 y.
When Nimue got the dagger, she turned Merlin into a tree. In Camelot, Zelena takes Mary Margaret into the castle. They find Arthur and the rest of the gang.
