Some fans think it is the end of the world when their favorite characters get killed off, or leave the show. The thing people forget is that there's always the possibility of return. Whether it is flashbacks or some sort of revival, or alternate reality, it doesn't mean they are gone forever. Cora returned a year after she last appeared. Her younger self is returning again soon as well. There was a doctor on Grey's Anatomy that left the show after the 3rd season, due to some controversies with the other actors, and is returning 7 years later, for the 10th season. But if Once upon a time goes for that long, I hope they don't wait that long to bring back some of the deceased characters.
