Regina also seems to assume she can teach Henry. It's generally a nonconclusive discussion until OUAT comes up with a canon official answer for it.

I have watched Once up to the episode they revive Amara. Then I sort of gave up. I miss the Jabberwocky. I thought she was some kind of alternate Dark One, since her powers were also tied to a blade, but that is not the case. Her powers weren't tied to a blade. It was simply the only thing that could harm her. She used her powers when she was pinned up when Jafar met her, lol. Jabber was definitely cool.
