I pretty much have the same kind of theory. I'd even go as far as to say that her death was caused by Zeref in her attempts to save the Dark Wizard from his "curse". She leaves behind Fairy Tail in hopes that one day a generation of Wizards would be born and would carry her dream of pursuing peace, and hope that they can inspire Zeref to the point where even he believes its possible. Of course this happens by the means of "the destined wizard to kill him" AKA Natsu AKA Mr. Nakama, who he puts all of his faith into. (I'd like to know the story between those two, since it was never clear how Zeref knew Natzu. I suspect Time-Travel.)
