I think a lot of the answers to this lie in the WWoW's motivations for casting the curse. Aside from an oblique reference to getting "revenge" we don't know why she specifically cast another curse. Clearly, WWoW knows of Emma and perceives her as some kind of threat, given the whole "Monkey-Walsh" thing. We know of the one-year memory gap for the Enchanted Foresters...but not the why. I guess it's something that we will learn about soon enough.
