    Sacrificing your child’s heart is very  dark. Not the first time the OUAT writers have written children surrounded by violence, for example Hansel and Gretel and the Blind Witch, Horder forcing children to fight in the Ogre Wars. It must be a very dark revenge for Zelena to sacrifice the heart of the one she loves most to enact the curse…..to take away Regina’s happy ending!!!!

    These sisters are mirrors of each others….seeking relentless revenge.

    That being said, I do agree that it is also possible that Zelena reluctantly sacrificed the heart of her lover.

    Will the upcoming episodes reveal what happened to Zelena that enflamed her desire to destroy Regina’s happy ending?

    Did Zelena somehow see with a magic globe, Regina happy with Henry after Zelena lost her child?

    Was Zelena so distraught losing her child that she struck a deal with the Wizard and what was that deal?

    It would seem strange to find out what makes Zelena tick and defeat her in the remaining episodes.

    There is a potential storytelling here and maybe A & E have decided continue this storyline into S4, spinning a dark twist to the land of OZ?

    To quote those infamous words….”wait and see.”

    In order for Zelena to enact the curse she HAD to sacrifice the heart of someone she loved. This storyline is not yet revealed.

    Zelena, we now know, wants a second chance. It could be that the second chance is to bring back the one she sacrificed his/her heart for the  curse to take place.

    Zelena is emotionally unstable, angry, spiteful, filled with blind jealousy on how her life turned out. Zelena’s obsessive behaviour, for me, points to a desperation to reverse her rash and reckless decision to sacrifice a beloved heart, a decision made in a furious outburst that she regrets?

    Could be a lover, or perhaps an unthinkably  horrible mistake, a child she loved? Hence her fixation with Snowing’s baby. This unborn child definitely is the key foundation to this unfolding storyline, perhaps the bold storyline A & E spoke about.

    I wonder if Zelena used Regina’s blood to re-enact the curse of Regina’s since she was already in Regina’s castle when the Walsh monkey brought her Regina’s blood. Since Regina had already sacrificed the heart of the thing she loved most, Zelena didn’t need to sacrifice anything since, by using Regina’s blood, the curse thought she was Regina.

    All magic comes with a price!

    I am standing by my headcanon that Zelena used Dorothy’s heart to cast the curse.

    Possibly the heart she took has something to do with Aurora, Phillip and their baby. They are the only characters who have been depicted as having a story involving Zelena and haven’t been seen alive in Storybrooke.
