Emma and Walsh dated for eight months, that means West must acquire knowledge about Emma four months after Storybrooke crew's return. Possible that she eavesdropped the crew (low profile) or interrogated someone from the crew (high profile) and learned that Emma is the savior and sent agent Walsh to infiltrate her life, or sort.

Thoughts?

Walsh and Emma dated for 8 months, but Walsh met her ahead of time when Emma needed an armoire redone or something...

As for WWoW motivations... well, what were they in the original story? She wanted revenge for the death of her sister. In this sense, we can see Regina almost as Dorothy... sent to a new world by some magic, seperated from her family, trying to return home but can't... WWoW is prolly the sister of some other witch Regina killed... Malificent, the gingerbread house witch, etc...
