And it's likely to happen, because we haven't heard about her or Maleficent returning Yes. They are pretty much irrelevant now. She has always been irrelevant

She was just an excuse to bring Maleficent back with a vendetta against Snow and Charming.... that came and went to nowhere

And Emma went to the dark side anyway, through the Dark One curse Lily was just a reused idea from other plot they did better in the past. Lily - Emma (Neal - Emma, Regina - Emma), Lily - Maleficent (Emma - Snow, Baelfire - Rumple).

I liked the idea of light savior and dark savior (even if it is a rip off from Buffy), they could have done much more with that, but it didn't go anywhere. I agree. Lily was the new and edgier Emma and that could have worked since this current Emma is a wittled down version of herself. However, they should have did a little logic dance and brought back Lily to even go on the Camelot Trip by accident at least. PErhaps they remembered how good season 1 was and thought to drop that potential. XD They had a good reason to include her - The Apprentice's Wand. If that is not good enough reason, they could have invented something like they did with Zelena, Robin, Granny, the Dwarves and Rowland. Yeah, everyone and their friend thought Lily before they ever thought Zelena, but they still could do it since the wand technically still exists and has access to Merlin's magic (or whatever it is since Merlin is dead and it's DO magic now).

I'm not sure how she will fit in in any other arc because the general audience definitely forgot about her and it would be too late to go back to the sympathy board with her since she's seemingly disappeared.

They could go with the "I'm back and trained in magic." Even though I wanted to actually see her learn unlike Emma's half-education.
