@Runaroundmacy Interesting idea! Have we seen Zelena do anything spectacular? Besides cast maybe a super wonky curse? She can fly, but that’s probably the broom, not her. She POOFs a lot, but so does everyone else. Changed her outfit but…eh Hm. Yeah, it’s possible she just isn’t as powerful.
That’s what made me start to wonder… We haven’t seen her do really much of anything, yet. Sorry in advance RG, but maybe that’s why she needs Rumple, because she knows that he’s more powerful than Regina, and if she controls him, she won’t actually have to do anything. She can just make *him*. And make him pay for choosing Regina over her. Double revenge whammy.
*moment of silence for beloved Imp*
I think you might be right about that. Rumple, crazy though he is, is still the Dark One. She needs him to do the most powerful stuff because her magic ins’t up to snuff–thus why her curse went wonky. if Rumple had cast it, it would have gone off without a hitch.
