I was trying to point out that the last few pages of the storybook henry had was emma being send into the LWM, and the author was entrapped into the storybook itself before emma was born, lets assume the author had already written up to that part only where Emma was send to the LWM, which is where my point comes in, the pedler shouldn't have any effect on stories that occur in Storybrooke seeing as he only went as far as the last pages which emma burned in the first season. So the burning of the pages had nothing to do with how the story of these heroes flow post-entrapment and post DC, its the mere fact that they still looking for the author to change things, when in fact no one is writing about them in the present, they actually have the power to write their own story now. Which means, Regina doesn't need the author, which is also evident with Ursula getting her happy ending without the author. Regina already had her happy ending, she jsut had to make the sacrifice to avoid Marian's death. In all honesty, if Marian is well versed in the LWM customs, she wouldn't need to let robin go, because she would know how to live by herself then, which again comes back to the point of having their own control with their destiny now. But I must also point out that perhaps they are looking to change the past now the future. However, we know the bolded isn't true. The Author (the peddler, at least) was imprisoned then. (Unless you mean a different one!)

We're agreeing with each other, actually. After everyone is in Storybrooke, it seems like only the Savior alters events via helping restore happy endings, no author involvement.

My other post was a reply to Edward Zachary, (quoting doesn't always work for me lately) and "iirc" means "if I recall correctly". :)
