My first thought is that, since it's in the current storyline and that narrative "will end in season 6", my guess is that Emma dies and there is a new protagonist, either Henry grown up or Neal grown up or someone else, but there is surely a time jump. Rumple will probably get killed too, or stops being a Dark One,  either way there can be a new DO, it's too important for Once. I agree that Snow and Charming will fade away, possibly ruling the EF. Belle and Zelena... I don't see what other purpose they can have on the show.

So I only see Henry, Regina and Hook (the 2 fan favorites) staying. That's probably too many actors axed, but I would like a fresh start.
