ParticipantCora poisoned Eva in order to make her daughter queen. Yet, there seemed to be a deeper, darker history between those two, which could be why Cora stood triumphantly over Eva’s dead body. What do you think their history is?

KeymasterIt seemed VERY personal. Like…family. Like sisters. Like…oh my gosh.

Yes, it did. Cora said, “And once I’ve darkened her soul, it won’t just be you I’ve destroyed. It’ll be your legacy.” Yikes! It sounds like a great rivavlry went on between them, at least from Cora’s perspective.
Yet, I don’t think they’re sisters, because Eva said that Snow’s crown had belonged to her mother, and before that, her grandmother. So while Cora was the daughter of a miller, Eva was the daughter of a queen.

KeymasterAhhhh. Good point.
What if Cora was in love with the King? And Eva took him from her?No I don’t like that. The family tree would be terrible.

I don’t think Cora was in love with King Leopold, because he would’ve recognized her when he came to her home to propose to her daughter, Regina.
I think Cora was in love with King George. Maybe Eva was related to George, like his sister. Maybe Cora and Eva were sisters-in-law and Eva objected to Cora as a match for her brother.

KeymasterYeah. I like THAT. That makes more sense. Eva didn’t think Cora was good enough for George perhaps and convinced him to put her aside when Cora became barren.

ParticipantI stated this theory before
Miller daughter / Cora wanted to marry a king… KING GEORGE or KING LEOPOLD either would do. But she gets passed over for other princesses… She ends up marrying Prince Harry a lesser son / prince; who does not rule a kingdom. She punishes George by poisoning his wife so that she could not bear children. She kills Queen Eva so her daughter can marry King Leopold.

Still working on the theory but I think we will find out for sure soon… one way or another.

ParticipantI think that they were childhood friends, and that Cora was always jealous that Eva was a princess, while she was a Miller’s daughter.

ParticipantI also wonder how Cora knows The Blue Fairy, to shape-shift into her she would have had to have seen her.

Participantmaybe… building on my good witch/bad witch theory I just posted in the Fave moments thread….
Eva and Cora are both the millers’ daughters. Both want a better life. Wish upon a star…. but only Eva gets the fairytale granted. Maybe Cora didn’t believe in Reul Ghorm but Eva did, so Eva went off to wish? Cora is stuck at home, with the milling. She takes her chance when Rumplestiltskin rocks up – and confirms the pattern of Eva = Good Magic, Cora = Dark Magic.
Maybe???
OR…. just had another thought, on the Blue-is-manipulating-all train. Blue approaches Eva, offers her the princess life, because Blue can also see the future – Eva’s daughter will be Snow, who will give birth to the Saviour, but won’t be in a position to meet Prince Charming unless she is a princess….. This would explain why Cora was left behind. Blue wouldn’t have approached her. But maybe the approach came when the sisters were together – this is why Cora knows what Blue looks like, and wears? (and I am SO glad that Cora had a line about how dumb Blue’s costume is!! It always annoys me. Shells and crap??? Ugh.) Cora was snubbed off, and that started her slide to the Dark side – which Blue isn’t too phased about, because she knows Regina will be needed to implement the curse.
