But thinking about Alice for a second (if she does turn out to be the Guardian and not another red herring), that's A LOT of darkness she will be containing. Rumple absorbed the combined powers of every DO in history in 5x11. Instead of the same quantity of power being passed down (i.e. each DO has the identical "Power Level 100") he's like a nuclear DO (Power Level 1000+).
