Also, I noticed that Ursula said she had been banished to this land. I hope we'll see how she ended up in NYC. Did she not have the ability to travel through different worlds because she was outside of Storybrook (no magic)? Seemed like she could have found a way home, or somewhere she'd have a better life, so probably she needed magic. I don't think it's a matter of not having magic. Rumple mentioned in Neverland that all the waters are connected, and Ariel had no problem moving to and from Neverland. But in Ursula's case, she said she "hadn't set a toe in the sea since [she] was banished to this land." So there might be a sort of imposed exile, whether by Ursula herself, or a condition of her banishment.
