Thank you for posting this. I’ve been waiting since it aired for someone to do it because I’m too lazy to track down a link. 😀
First, I have to say it’s about time that there’s finally a promo with new material in it.
Opinion: When the queen raises her arms, nothing seems to happen? Can we just not see it, or is she about to learn that her new magic is rather faulty?
Yes, I think the first time she does it nothing happens, but later on she’s able to throw that one guy around. I guess her magic will still be wonky though just to keep her from becoming too powerful too soon.
Let’s share favorite moments
The whole thing! 😀
However, I must say that I really loved the medallion that Rumple had. Everyone on my Tumblr has been trying to track down what it means. So far the best guess seems to be from here, http://sixbluemarbles.tumblr.com/post/31254094164/the-symbol-on-the-medal-rumpelstiltskin-is-holding.
It’s the Anglo-Saxon “ear” rune. It’s also known as “Rune of the Grave” which Jacob Grimm interpreted as “death personified”. There’s this poem that the person also posted,
” ᛠ [ear] is horrible to every knight, / when the corpse quickly begins to cool / and is laid in the bosom of the dark earth. / Prosperity declines, happiness passes away / and covenants are broken.”
Given this new information, I’m theorizing that the Medallion is probably connected to the dark spirit that is following Mulan, Aurora, and Prince Phillip around. It might also have to do with why Regina is seeing Daniel around town.
