I try really hard to analyze the timeline, but this season is impossible. I don't think it is really 2017. I know it has been mentioned that Henry was 16 when he left Storybrooke, but according to the episode he had graduated hish school, so he must have been at least 18, making it 2019. Here's my estimare of Henry's age: 20 when he meets Ella, 22 when he has Lucy, 30 when the curse is cast, 32 when he comes to Hiperion Heights.

It makes sense that there was a 2 year time gap between the curse and the first episode. Lucy had time to read the entire story and believes in the curse. Zelena had time to move and start a new life. Also, Ella says she hasn't seen Nick in 10 years, implying that to be Lucy's age.

Somehow, Robin is 25. Zelena mentioned that time moves faster wherever they are. However, Zelena appears to not have aged so much. Neither has Regina, even though she has been with Henry for roughly 10 years.

I'm still confused about the whole Alice situation. She was definitely magicaly aged up.

It seems like Regina hadn't seen Zelena and Robin in years, but Drizella knew who they were, so they must have showed up in NEF before she was turned to stone.

Drizella didn't age when she was a statue. She was already younger than Ella. That means she is still in her late teens or early 20s.
