Hmmmmm, excellent point! Unless Cora is more powerful than Rumple (which I doubt), then Cora was just lying about dark magic being able to raise the dead or that is a major plot hole! You can’t jump from “dead is daed” suddenly to “a life for a life” can you? Otherwise, wouldn’t Regina have found out about this spooky candle to use on Daniel? Something tells me that even if it meant sacrificing someone else’s life, Regina would’ve done it to get back the Stable Boy
What Cora was trying to get Snow to do was stop a death before it happened, not bring someone back from the dead. Daniel was already dead, not dying when Regina was trying to bring him back, and Cora killed him so quickly that she wouldn’t have had time to use the candle anyway.
Okay, I can see the loop-hole now, though it is very eye-of-the-needle small. 🙂
