Clues seem to point to some place in the Black Forest.
I 100% agree. Nick and the gang at some point in time will need to travel anyways to the Black Forest(recently confirmed as the prime place in the latest key gathered)to get the secret treasured item(s) hidden away. I really hope they go in depth about this though and not just have them fly there and back in two episodes and rather extend it to a longer period considering how many seasons it has taken to get the current keys + the missing ones they still have yet to find.
Welcome to the group, Oreoc1! Think we're right about the Black Forest, what puzzles me is when this will happen. Season 5 would be great, but I've always felt it would take place during the show's last season since it seems to be the over-arcing story of Grimm. Since we all most probably wish the show could go on indefinitely, that presents a timeline problem for me. Guess the show's brain trust will figure it all out!
It is not such a problem. Make what is hidden anti climatic. In a time of bow and arrows, swords of low grade steel, maces made of iron, a simple cartridge fed repeating riffle would have been enough to control the world. It took about 600 years to go from the crusades to the repeating riffle even though all the technology existed at the time, no one had put the peices together in the right order yet. Goods were contained in lead sealed tin cans. There were cannons at that time. Anyone who knows what the accuracy difference in a musket and a riffle is would tell you that that one improvement changed the game of warfare, then the leap to the breach loaded cartridge made in load times at the line, let alone the repeating part.
What I am saying is something that the crusading knights would have found to be too powerful to let into anyone's hands might be something we would look at and say "WHAAAT, that piece of garbage?"
This turns the treasure into a joke on the royals and leaves the show about the world of the wesen vs. the world of men and how the royals might once again exploit that to come back to power. An ongoing struggle with no end in sight. The show goes on.
If I had something important to say, I would have mumbled it.
