I'm sorry Killian but your argument sounds really dumb to me. Zelena vaguely mentioned the time travel spell - there is absolutely no basis to assume where she is in developing it, except that she didn't take a random object that happens to be shaped like a heart as a representation of love (which would be dumb - what does a magical object that drains power have to do with love?)

I don't understand how it isn't obvious that Zelena referring to Dorothy trying to stop her means that Dorothy is likely trying to stop her.  Dorothy is in a completely different realm before Our Decay. Not only was she terrified of Zelena, but she believes she murdered Zelena. Zelena has no reason to expect her to return - proven by the fact that when she does return, she expresses surprise.

I'm not saying that all of this definitively proves that this is after Our Decay and it's possible that the writers ignored their own timeline and/or decided Zelena would be completely irrational. But the evidence is certainly in favor of it being post-Our Decay (at least as far as I can tell), so if we're not going to try to get an official statement on it, we should go with post-Our Decay.
