I would guess that something is going wrong in Hell. Life is all of a sudden springing forth in the one place it never should…nine times out of ten due to the Savior Emma being in it’s domain. Emma’s ultimate light magic is bringing life to a place full of death. Hades being Hades, will not like someone bringing something tragically beautiful into his beautifully tragic domain.
That’s probably exactly what it is. Well done. It makes mythological sense too given Emma’s Hero/Savior status/trope. I actually think it’s rather clever (in the sense that I’m amazed A and E have enough hero-story knowledge in their noggins to make connections like this).
[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"know this will be answered in the premiere, but I actually still don’t understand the purpose of this inbetween limbo purgatory realm. I mean, in religion, spirits eventually move on from Purgatory after some time right? I know in some religions they can move on fasster if the living prays for them, etc, etc.
Well. A few things here.
1) Limbo = / = Purgatory; Limbo is the edge of Hell while Purgatory is its own place
2) Purgatory is VERY tired to Catholicism, not “religions” in general. There are some religioins that have a concept of an in between phase but this idea of a purgatory to further atone is *very* Catholic.
3) People do not go from Hell to Purgatory. If you go to Hell, then you go to Hell (until Christ returns but we’ll save that for another day). If you go to Purgatory, then you still experience some sort of pain/torture/punishment/atonement until you move to Heaven either through those punishments or because your family has prayed/paid for you.
4) Greek mythology did not have a concept of Purgatory just like they didn’t really have a concept of Hell as we understand/believe in it today.
So it’s more like OUAT is plucking tiny bits of mythology for their own purposes. Hades the Greek deity, The Underworld in name but not spirit but with a feeling of Punishment-In-Purgatory with spirits who have unfinished business.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Is MRJ going to survive the season on the show he is going to be on? How major of a character is he going to be? I know nothing about that.
He’s one of the lead characters; second listing, actually. It’s based on a Turkish show. I believe the Turkish character survives the series. It’s a murder mystery type deal, but a murder of long ago.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"they’re more so in a purgatory of sorts, for people with unfinished business who either are killed and sent to the literal afterlife or finish their unfinished business and pass on peacefully to the other side, or they have somewhat of a possibility of returning to the life of the living.
I suppose that makes sense; it would explain why what we’re seeing is Hellbrooke instead of an actual Hell-like landscape as described by Rumple. I just don’t get how Hades fits in since he is supposed to be the ruler of Hades, the Underworld. Something tells me we’re over thinking it, per normal
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Someone might have to stage an intervention. I can’t stop listening to My Dragon Pal and Me
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Food for thought: can you die in the Underworld? Gaston seems to think he can at least hurt Rumple/Belle with that arrow.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Did Hook just —
LOL. Yes, where did Emma go??
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"This is the title of the book Belle was reading in “Skin Deep” when she met Rumple for the first time.
Wow, if this is true, maybe the writers are in fact going back to season 1 to bring back old themes and memories. This has to be Belle/Rumple centric. Unless it’s Emma centric, and referring to Captain Hook or even Neal (jk jk hehe).
It’s is true. It’s in the Skin Deep transcript and confirmed by all the writers over various years. And we know it’s Belle/Rumple centric…we’re seeing Belle pre-Rumple in a flashback, and Gaston was (re)cast.
Edited to add: full Skin Transcript from the auction a few years ago. The book title is on page 5.
