Swan Queen

"Once upon a time there was a queen. And she cast a glorious curse that gave her everything she wanted... or so she thought. She despaired when she learned that revenge was not enough. She was lonely. And so she searched the land for a little boy to be her  p r i n c e. And then... she found him."

 ↳ Regina Mills/The Evil Queen.

Regina opened herself, for the first time in decades, to love. Not just to receive it, but to give it. Henry was her second chance to reclaim happiness. When the prophecy of the Saviour coming to town to break the curse that Regina had sacrificed her own father to enact threatened to come true, she chose to erase her own memory and put him first because she knew that nothing was more important than her son. It was a selfless act of the purest love of a mother, and it was beautiful. I don’t think she just saved Henry, I think Henry saved her too.
