This alternate reality, of sorts, is very different from what viewers know happened in the Enchanted Forest.
It is a world where theres no villains, Kitsis notes.
The big villain was defeated, there was no curse, and peace and joy got to flourish.

The episode therefore runs like a blast from the past familiar faces and locales included.
Whats fun about when we do the alt-realities is they are that wish fulfillment.
This really follows in that line.
This new challenge aside, Emma is still faced with a grim prophecy that apparently cannot be stopped.
Emma is fated to die and that is the destiny that we learned all Saviors face, Kitsis reminds.
Once Upon a Times winter finale airs Sunday at 8 p.m.
