Madalena, one of the main villains and an Evil Queen at that, ends up becoming an apprentice to a dark wizard named Wormwood. Wormwood specializes in a type of dark magic called D'DEW (Dark Dark Evil Way). It felt a lot like the Regina and Rumple student/master relationship. The Season even ends with Madalena seeking the training of the DEL (Dark Evil Lord), which I wonder could be a sort of spoof on the Dark One. That's a bit of a stretch though. Rumple and Regina was sort of like  that perhaps, but the other stuff isn't. DEL is simply the Fantasy trope of "Dark Lord" which often happens in fantasy like the Shadow Lord, Darth Sidious, The Dark Lord, The Dark One, etc.
