If they were in NYC pre-Curse, with no magic, they would be 30 years older.
The sorcerer could have sent them here or they could have gotten here through some other magical means by accident or whatever. Its not the most illogical thing on this
Also Maleficent is wearing the dress she wore when she met Regina.
I’d like to point out that I meant the same dress she wore when she Fought regina in season 1.
I’ve been having issues reconciling Zen!Maleficent with the Maleficent we’ve seen in this season. But I think Zen!Maleficent would be before these baby stealing flashbacks, because didn’t Regina get the Curse from her immediately after she’d crashed the wedding, and the baby stealing happened after their honeymoon?
You are right now that I think about it. Regina and Mal fought for the curse, Regina took it, Mal went to Snowing to find the tree for protection, Mal told Snow she was preggers and now it seems Snowing kidnapped the child.
