Does not mean Cora and Eva aren’t related. They could’ve stopped keeping in touch even way before either of the daughters were born.
It’s all very well believing is something but it still doesn’t mean we cannot be right too.[adrotate group="5"]Well, I don’t think so – if it’s for the Manhattan episode, then the characters, namely Rumple, are finally breaking free from SB – that would call for a celebratory Key art 😉
It’s all down to how we perceive Stable Boy then – it’s been confirmed that it was Cora who spooked Snow White’s horse and she’s probably helped with Snow White’s mom ‘disappearance’. However, none of this implies that Eva and Cora were not related. The fact that Snow didn’t know Regina means absolutely nothing to me. Cora could’ve planned this all along (as she normally does) and hence not introduce her family to Leopold before. From what we see, even Leopold doesn’t know Cora so if Eva and Cora were to be just acquaintances, wouldn’t king know about it? So it looks like Eva hid that fact from the King either way, and if she was such a good person, hiding a secret from a husband would be a pretty big thing. Now, of course we don’t know if it was Cora that Snow’s mom had a connection to, but if we’re assuming it is just that – then it’s not that risky that they could be relatives too. That could explain how Cora knew so much about Leopold and his family.
As for Cora not being evil from the beginning – I know, the writers confirmed that but if they repeated Regina’s story it would be just boring and pretty lazy. I cannot see Cora being a saint either plus you don’t have to be evil to have a competition with your sister, trust me 😉
There is a story of Snow White and Rose Red that has been presented in Henry’s book (it’s not Red Riding Hood story) and we all assumed that it was about Snow and Red – they truly bonded as sisters. What if the story was actually about Eva and Cora, raised in a cottage in the woods? They both took care of a ‘beast’ that turned out to be Rumple and he presented them with a deal? A result of which would be Snow White’s marrying Leopold and Cora being left with nothing, hurt and vengeful?
Of course, these are just speculations and theories but they are just as good as yours so please don’t dismiss it just because you see some facts differently.
There is not much we know about the episode anyway and coming up with stories based on the fairy tales we know is talking theories too. Lack of evidence is NOT a con.
And Regina had no idea who Snow White was either. If the two were sisters, I honestly don’t think that their animosity would just start at one point. We know Cora and I think that they must have been in conflict for a long time e.g. if the theory proves right that Cora was miller’s daughter and made a deal with Rumple to marry Prince Henry, then Snow White’s mom would’ve been miller’s daughter too! So my idea is that Snow White’s mother met Kind Leopold in the woods or something and he was immediately taken by her and asked her to marry him. Cora was furious because, yet again, her sister had effortlessly gained what she (Cora) has been dreaming off for ages. This is a final straw, she makes a deal with Rumple (as opposed to the original story where it’s her father who does it first – it fits better if it actually is Cora herself, showing her evil character from the start) and officially vowes to outdo Snow White’s mother or something like that. If Cora is so angry with her sister, I can’t see the two families ever being on good terms, they would probably want to avoid each other as possible.
