Recently, Once Upon A time co-creator Eddy Kitsis opened up to The Hollywood Reporter about Ruby’s return to the series and her relationship with Mulan:
“We've been wanting to bring Ruby back forever ... but we felt like we couldn't just have Ruby show up at Granny's like she's been there the whole time. This will explain where she's been and what Mulan has been up to. The two of them are going to be enlisted to help Merida with a problem at home. She has to pay back a debt her father has to the witch from Brave, and she needs the help of Mulan and Ruby to figure it out.”
Kitsis went on to discuss just how long Ruby and Mulan will be around:
“We will absolutely see them in the second half of the season. This is kind of their reintroduction, where they've been and setting them up for the second half.”
