For some reasons, i think Agnes Bruckner's role could be the Author (not adult Lily)

In the past, the creators said that "the author is someone we'll meet, not someone we already knew" and "Operation Mongoose will lead outside of Storybrooke"

After Emma and Regina's roadtrip to New York, they bring back Robin, Roland, Zelena and Agnes's mysterious role, who is the only could be considered as "a new character"

Well, there is also Gorin the Peddler, but he filmed a scene with Rumple way before Emma and Regina leave the town

And also, someone reported that Regina've filmed a scene with Agnes's character and then POOFED away

Why would she show off her magic to a (normal) stranger ?

Moreover, usually after the episode title is spoiled and the cast begin shooting, there will be one or some casting annoucements for that episode

If 4x21 and 4x22 focus on the Author, should have they announced their casting decison ?

That the "Agnes joins the show as #nospoiler" news appears after the "Lily" title is posted on Twitter makes me think about this

Furthermore, a 3-episode arc is a good amount of time for the Author's story to unfold

. ..

That's why I think that Agnes will play a really important role on the show

P/S : I still don't think Agnes Bruckner is playing adult Lily

Yeah, she'll first appeared in "Lily"

But not all titles have to EXACTLY refer to what happened in the past and also what's happening in the present

<p style="line-height:22px;">For example, "Kansas" refered to Dorothy and Walsh's home, but it had nothing to do with fighting the wicked witch in Storybrooke. They didn't LITERALLY go to Kansas to hide from her

<p style="line-height:22px;">Or "The Tower" refered to Rapunzel's tower, it's not like there's LITERALLY a new mysterious tower in Storybrooke

<p style="line-height:22px;">...

<p style="line-height:22px;">So, "Lily" could tell more about Lily's life but adult Lily don't have to ACTUALLY show up
