In fact, since Maleficent has seemed semi-redeemed and she is Regina's only friend from the EF, I could see her be the only QoD that survives. Of the three Queens of Darkness, Maleficent is the most likely to be truly redeemed. Disney even redeemed her, and would probably prefer if OUaT dos the same. While she does practice the Dark Arts, I doubt Maleficent will even be viewed as a villain is the flashbacks.... the villain title will be given to King Stefan. oh god i hope they don't do the plot of Maleficent. I hope they don't. But I have enough belief that they will replicate a portion of it. I like how they even got rid of the orb on top of her staff because, in canon, she got the orb to hid the dark curse in it.
