Queenofdarkness89: Thank you for that, I genuinely appreciate your help. I tend to only really understand full English and cant keep up with all of the constant new abbreviations.

I see what you are saying here, I think there are more inconsistencies in this show with regards to Rumple and the Dark Curse than anything else on this show (except maybe Maleficent). As the original poster alluded to, Rumple knew it was Cora's offspring who would initiate the curse but it didn't seem any more specific than that since he was so willing to trade Regina for Zelena. I guess that's why it makes me think that Emma is as "disposable" or as changeable as the Savior is as Regina was as the person who initiated The Dark Curse, if that makes sense.

Point being, would Emma still have been the savior if Zelena had not fallen for Rumple and he was able to use her instead of Regina to initiate the curse? The only tie Emma has to all of this is through Snow and Regina, that's why I think it's possible that Emma is not the only savior.
