I’m a big fan of Captain Swan… but why Hook?? That makes no sense. Sure, he is being redeemed. And sure, he wants to save his girlfriend. But i dont see the connection of why it would be him.
My thoughts are Arthur, because she had to bring him to Storybrook for some reason. Or…
Is it possible for Light Emma to be the one to pull the sword? With her being a TL baby and having pure light magic because of the whole Lily situation, it makes me wonder if she kinda has a Jekyll and Hyde personality inside her. The darkness has taken over now with the help of DO! Rumple, but perhaps the light can shine through if she accessed it. Would the sword then allow her to pull from the stone because it would read her as pure light magic?
This leads me to a question I posted in another thread – could Light Emma (Or Light Regina) then forge the sword back together with light magic instead of dark and snuff out the DO curse? Supposedly Emma putting the sword back together with Dark magic would snuff out the light, so why can’t it go the other way?
