Warning for spoilers.
Apparently our world was not the first world Baelfire landed in. When talking about Once in Wonderland Horowitz revealed that the lands of Wendy and Alice are separate worlds from our own.

And suddenly nothing makes sense again and yet does at the same time.
[adrotate group="5"]Adam has stated a few times on Twitter that Fictional London of Alice is NOT the Real London of Wendy Darling that we saw in SSTR. OUATinWL takes places in FICTIONAL London whereas the London we saw with Wendy and her family is the REAL London of the very late 1800s. However, Bae did land here first, our real world.
Took forever to re-find this tweet, but here is confirmation of that from Adam.

"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"This is the one thing that hurts my head. He is 300 hundred years old but was only in our world 115 years ago. So where was he for almost 200 years?
This is going to cause wrinkles.
Yes there is a very big problem in the timeline (if Keb sees this, she can elaborate) but Rumple is supposed to have lived about 300 years (having become the Dark One around age 45 when Bae was 14) and Bae is about 240 or so but…yeah it doesn’t match up.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"The EPs explained that the events of Wonderland take place concurrently with original Once — which raises the question of how then Alice can live in Victorian England. “It’s not historical Victorian England; it’s fictional Victorian England,” Horowitz said. As with other realms visited on Once, Wendy Darling’s England, Dr. Frankenstein’s world and such “are lands of story” removed from time.
There doesn’t happen to be vid of this out there somewhere, does there? Like, did they actually say, “Wendy Darling’s England is one of the lands of story, removed from time”? Or did the writer just pluck out a couple of alternate locations we’ve seen to fill out the sentence with their own interpretation of what was said? The way it’s written does seem to imply that Wendy’s England isn’t our England, which is the opposite of what Adam has said on Twitter.
I think the writer was generalizing, but it is possible Adam pulled a fast one, as what he is really saying is Alice and Wendy’s Londons are different, not that Wendy’s London was the past of the “World without Magic” in which Emma and Neal met. What does, after all, “Real” mean ? We all say that as shorthand but do Adam and Eddy use that term for Land without Magic too?
“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
