I dont know what it is, but everyone's theory is very interesting. Hades knowing of Goldstiltskin, which would be the obvious factor, since he was resurrected from Hell, so on and so forth, w/Neal taking his place due to Zelena not telling him the price of resurrecting the dead. David only died a short time to cast Snow's curse and now shares half of her heart. Technically, David IS still dead, he has no heart, he's only alive bc of what Regina did to Snow's heart. Snow IS the1 keeping David alive, and I'm sure there IS some kinda rule-breaking of taking someone's soul, heart, shadow, or body. I mean, I'm sure Hades owns David's soul, per say. So, David&possibly Robin could still be present-Underbrooke, while Rumple is1 of the past souls who got ressurected, accidentally bc of Zelena maynot or would've known Hades' rules. It's very likely that Zelena will join Cora for the horrible things she's done, and feeling no remorse about it, either. I wouldn't be surprised, if she dies this season and Hades' punishment for Zelena IS not meeting Cora for the first time, EVER! but, it'll be the1 person who didn't want her in the first place, meaning Jonathan(her father, would be interesting to see, if he's either alive or dead). That would be interesting, I mean, at least Cora had an excuse for been a heartless-overprotective self-centred basketcase, bc she kinda dumped Rumple and ripped out her heart. Zelena was born alright, until Walsh told her about Regina and her envy fuming over her little half-sister grew intensly to the extend of getting revenge, bc Cora gave Regina everything, when really it was getting what Cora wanted, as Regina didn't want to marry Snow's Dad, but Daniel, who Cora killed ~and not Zelena who was abandoned by both her parents, I kinda think Zelena is like the mini-female version of Jonathan, only 1000Xworse. Zelena shouldn't be blaming Regina, she should've blamed Cora. Anyway, Robin's soul IS still in jeapody, it don't matter if he was saved by D1Emma in EF or HookedQueen,Snowing&Arthur in SB. The other connection could still be Robin as well. He died, and came back, he was still poisoned, just like Hook was as well w/Excalibur. But, the best course of action to this connection IS as followed: ~RUMPLE (highly likely, bc he's been there for at least 8-12months &he'll probably be the guide of Emma&Co, but I think Hades has something else in mind for him, blah blah blah), ~DAVID or ~YoungSNOW (bc he's literally still dead, he has no heart&possibly no soul. I mean, David could run into his evil-twin, and it'll end up been David's soul in the disguise of James. David's sharing 1/2 of Snow's heart, what Snow did, still doesn't count. David is still dead, 1/2 of Snow's heart is keeping him alive tho, that's like breaking the rule between sacrificing a Life in Death, sorta like a loophole to bring that Death back to Life, so unless when Snow said it, she knew it would work, hence YoungSNOWBaileeM returning), ~ROBIN (bc he jumped to save Regina when Percival went to kill her, Emma brought him back from the dead in EF, in SB 6wksl8a, his soul was replaced w/HQ,SW&Arthur w/what he had left. IDK, I still feel Regina maybe distracted w/saving&fighting her love for Robin, than helping Emma bring Hook back to SB from UB) and lastly, ~HOOK. (bc well, he died twice, once w/poisoned Excalibur &Emma turned him into a D1 to save him, then again 6-7wksl8a w/Hook making Emma kill him&he goes to UB as Rumple becomes TD1 again.) I mean, I'm sure what Rumple did was for a very good reason, it took 6-7wks for him to be a hero &then have the writers take that character development away and make him TD1 again, where no1 can ever control him, bc he has total control over that dagger. If memory serves.

So, Yes... RUMPLE IS THE OBVIOUS1, but it could still be David, Robin or Hook, even YoungSNOW. If you remember before Leopold married Regina, before the time maybe during when Cora poisoned&killed Eva, YoungSNOW was an angry-bratty-spoiled child, just like how YoungEVA was. &I think, the connection could be YoungSNOW, or at least Adult (MM)SnowWhite in general, even. She was willing to take Lily away from Mal, put Emma's darkness inside Lily, even 30yrsl8a THAT! was the1 secret Snow had kept, nonetheless David didn't really have much of a choice. Since 3B happened, David has been saying YES to everything Snow says, even during 4B he did. S2David would've never gone along w/Snow's charade, bc he had never lied to Emma, not once until 4B happened. Even now, I'm not sure Hook sharing 1/2 of Emma's heart will work, bc either someone will stop that from happening, e.g: Hades to be more precise. I mean, I'm sure there IS some kinda of rule, consequence, unless Emma IS willing to pay the price for bringing Hook back, bc I think Snow already did, w/Mallily secret. Even, if Isaac changed Emma's story for a better1. Isaac said what happened to Lily, happened for a reason &yet still Snowing were secretive about the details, later on before Rumple's coma &Emma saved Merlin's Apprentice&Regina to become TD1. I think, the price of Emma giving 1/2 of her heart to Hook, which will somewhat anger Hades for bringing back a soul w/o his permission, will summon the1 person Emma ever killed, which WAS Cruella. I'm betting on it, not just Milah, but Cruella gets her wish at revenge on Emma.

Sorry for the long post. But, it's either Rumple, David, YoungSNOW/Mary-Margaret, Robin, Hook or possibly Emma. Who knows? What else happened during 5A, "Rumple(Nimue)" maynot of been the only1 who visited DarkSwan in her house. I wouldn't be surprised if Hades met YoungEmma, that would be twist, instead of the usual suspects of Rumple or Regina. ~justsaying~
