    Question if Cruella can persuade animals, does that also include Ursula & Maleficent? Considering they are both Dragon and Octopus.

    I think the secret is something to do with Emma herself. I think Snow knew while she was pregnant about her unborn daughter having the potential for the greatest darkness. Perhaps she convinced Charming that they had to perform some sort of exorcism on their unborn child, and so they went to the QoD for help. Rumple knows about Emma having a heart with a potential for darkness, so perhaps there was some prophesy involving the savior and an anti-savior (aka Lily). If Lily is the sister of Emma, then it would be all the juicer (though totally over-the-top as far as ret-conning goes).

    Just came on here to write the same idea. I see that due to time zone differences, someone else beat me to it!

    It’s nice to see someone else thinking along the same lines.

    Just chucking it out there…

    in Terry Pratchett’s* Witches Abroad we meet Lilith the Fairy Godmother, born Lily Weatherwax (Esmerelda, aka Granny Weatherwax’s sister). The whole crux of that book is that Esme resented Lily’s turn to evil (despite her pleasant exterior) because it forced the grumpy, ornery ‘bad’ witch Esme to be The Good One.

    Anyway… it would be interesting if there was a secret long lost twin called Lily for similar reasons. Emma has, since she’s embraced magic, had to be The Good One, no matter what she wants to do – she’s The Saviour. A twin not restrained by such rules would be very interesting indeed. And if the reasons for the twins’ separation is down to “fate intervening” *coughShadyFairycough* even more so…

    although it would also be a very tired trope… but isn’t everything on OUAT? Isn’t that the point of fairytales, to an extent?

     

    * sniff. RIP. 🙁
