By Liezl Dunuan, Christian Post Contributor Wednesday, March 04, 2015

"Once Upon A Time" Season 4 recently returned for the second half of the season. The second part of Season 4 premiered March 1. The first half of the season ended Dec. 14 last year so there is much anticipation about what will happen next. The American fairy tale drama series continues the story of fairy tale characters who are living in the real world, in the town of Storybrooke.

NBC released a video clip from the March 1 premiere showing the gathering of the three Evil Queens (Maleficent, Ursula and Cruella) by the series' longtime villain, Rumpelstiltskin, leading some spoiler reports to say that these three will play a crucial part in the story for the rest of the season.

Zap2it has compiled a list of spoilers in their website. First up, the list has a few things to say about the villains in the series. Aside from Evil Queen Regina, who is also the Storybrooke mayor, the Queens of Darkness: Ursula, Maleficent and Cruella; will definitely make things more interesting. Cruella, who is traditionally seen as somebody devoid of any magical powers, will have some magic up her sleeves this season.

Emma, one of the main characters in the series, will also be shown with a capacity for darkness. The show's creators had earlier revealed that "second half of the season will be about redefining what hero and villain mean." Another character close to Emma is said to be returning this season. Lily, who is Emma's childhood friend, has a whole episode named after her so her return is a major one.

Robin Hood is expected to come back this season but in present day, instead of flashbacks. There may still be a possibility that he will return for Regina.

While the report cites that there will be new villains, these new villains will be given new backstories. Rather than follow the original backstories they had in Disney, the series will provide its own backstories that will make for more interesting characters.

There is love brewing in the series and it's not what people are expecting, according to the report. It is going to be between Emma and Hook, and it will develop as the rest of season goes on.

The report notably mentions that the theme of the second half of the season is "What makes a hero or villain?" and this will cause some tension among the key characters when it comes to choosing which side to join. Snow White and Prince Charming, according to the report, will experience a moral dilemma in this regard.
