A couple of comments.

First, someone said that after SotD, the heroes were all about saving Killian, and helping others along the way., But now they are just sitting around "doing nothing". Here's the thing. In Labor of Love, they did help someone (actually 2 someone's) move on. In Devil's Due, they Lost Milah, but rescued Killian. and that event changed the whole focus of the plan. It is no longer about Save Killian, it's now about defeating Hades and escaping the Underworld.

And even after that, the Brothers Jones saw several people, including Liam, moving on. And I will be shocked if Gaston doesn't get to move on in the next episode. So the Heroes will still be helping people move on along the way. They just aren't going out of their way to help everyone they meet.

Second. As for the sorcerer's mansion, and light magic, and all that stuff. the mansion was not even part of the original Dark Curse. It showed up with Snow's casting, which I am assuming is also responsible for bringing the Apprentice the second time around. I don't think Hades put it in his copy, I think it was added by either the Apprentice, or Merlin himself. And if it was added by either of these, then it probably is the strongest source of light magic around, and acts as a deterrant to hades approach.

and as for why the Heroes aren't hanging there, that is a great question. But, as we have learned, "your questions are pointless".
