we know the author was trapped by the sorcerer in the book behind the doors. So I thought kinda sounds like siblings having a dispute. What if the author and the sorcerer are brothers?
Yeah, I actually proposed that idea yesterday in a different thread. I think it’s a very real possibility. Sibling rivalry is a well-known story device that goes back to the Old Testament: Cain and Abel, Ishmael and Isaac, Jacob and Esau, Rachel and Leah, Joseph and his many brothers. All of these siblings were vying for the birthright and blessings that come from being chosen or favored by someone. I remember a lot of people were hoping that Peter Pan would be Rumple’s brother, rather than his father. Zelena tuned out to be Regina’s long-lost half-sister who was consumed by jealousy. Now there is speculation that Lilly is actually Emma’s sister, who was carried to term by Maleficent but conceived using the true love potion made from Snow and Charming’s hairs.
