We'll know some characters started their life with some magical predisposition, while many of them aren't able to develop it by themselves though, as the show told us, it can totally be learn (at some levels but it's not the subject).

Remember the last thing we saw in the saison 4 finale, when emma was somehow teleported and transformed into the dark one. It was like a dark cyclon. Does it remember you anything from saison 3?

It kind of remind me about that green cyclon which takes baby zelena in oz. It's almost the same thing. A lot of fan find it very hard to admit that this could come from the child of Cora, who hadn't magic at all at this moment. Nothing says if her powers was given by this tornado coming out of nowhere, or not.

So if we admit the cyclon give her powers to zelena, it means it's a kind of curse. And if it's the case, it's very similar to the dark one curse acting on emma. This is all the same thing : changing+moving in another world.

On top of that, there's a lot of interesting connections between:

- Rumple as the dark-one and Zelena:

Did you notice that the only characters who really came back from death was: Rumple, and Zelena.

Well, she didn't really die, but it was almost the same. It seems like she's invicible. She even find how to break the rules of magic by HERSELF, a thing that rumple himself didn't even try or think! That make her almost as powerful as the dark one in some point.

Another clue: Their power are limited by only one object: the dagger for the dark one, the pendant for Zelena.

- Emma as the dark one, and Zelena:

Wath is happening with Emma is very similar to the prophecy Glinda told to Zelena in saison 3. I think Dorothy was all a test, so the prophecy could turn into two different way:

1/ Zelena defeating her own darkness making her both the great savior of oz, and both the greatest evil of the kingdom.

2/ Dorothy defeating Zelena, but seemingly only officialy, as the book of records is not totally reliable with details. Ater all, no-one totally defeats Zelena. Maybe because the greatest evil of Oz is not Zelena but wath's inside of her.

That green smoke.

And again, I can't stop seeing connections. It's exactly wath is happening to Emma. Beeing transported to another world with magic stuff, into a cyclon to another world full of prophecy.

It's obvious arthurian legend will be linked with the dark one curse, as the wicked witch prophecy was linked to Oz.

We all see Merida against emma in the promo. I'm wondering if Merida is a sort of dorothy too. A test for Emma to establish if Emma can defeat the darkness into herself, as Zelena was supposed to do with her envy.

We also see, in the same promo Zelena using the dagger as a weapon. It's strange.

That leads us to some questions, maybe less obvious than i've just write. If my theories are true, when, why and how it all begin? All this looks like a dismembered person: her/his darkness, her/his envy. Is that horcrux? Maybe there is some other curses, and maybe good curses(I mean we don't know how blue become a powerful ligth fairy).

It could be great if those are parts of the first author, or maybe a sort creator, the one who started the origin of all the stories who ashes for some reasons, dividing his/her body and sould into different smokes of colors and differents realm.

Oz story is all about power, truth, greatness, ambition. Neverland is about childhood (where does that f*cking shadow came?), Enchanted forest about love/war, and Camelot is all about struggle between good and evil. Every kingdom has it's own curse and are like a sides of a whole world. Or different traits of the same person.

Wath do you think?
