The seer that Rumple met isn't the only one we've seen. The other was really nothing more than a background character as far as we've seen her but in the beginning, when they showed Regina activating the Dark Curse, both the time she failed with her steed's heart and the time it worked with her father's-there's a group of "Evil Beings", if you will, with her, and if you look closely, one of them is a seer.

They haven't done much with any of them except Regina, and also I think it would fit well that there was more than just fate that decided on Emma and Neal meeting to procure Henry, that it would fit well that if their son was the boy Peter Pan needed centuries before he was even born, that is definitely something they are going to expand on in Season 3.

Plus, you say, "It was just fate that brought them together"-Don't forget, Fate acts through things, through people and their actions and events. It was fate that left Baelfire fatherless in his adolescence, but it was fate acting through his father, his father and his need to make sure he didn't leave him fatherless.

Here, sure, it was fate that brought Emma and Neal together, but that's not all. I'll bet it was fate acting through, oh I don't know, say, Peter Pan, that put Neal in that car and made sure it was Emma that would steal it, and, if I daresay, fate that acted through Mr. Gold to attain Henry for Regina.

So, in conclusion, the show thus far has been about Rumple's plan from the beginning to get his son back, yes? We've seen that he was behind everything that had happened, and that's been pretty much fully explored now, all its' juice squeezed out. We saw how he masterminded Cora and Prince Henry's having Regina so that he could teach her in the ways of magic for her to activate the Curse, we saw how he masterminded the Curse so that he would remember his true self when Emma came back into town so that he could play puppetmaster again to ensure the Curse being broken so he could find his son again, and now we will see how someone puppetmaster Rumple'd Rumple so that he would bring Henry into Storybrooke for Greg and Tamara to later find and bring to Neverland, and how someone puppetmaster Rumple'd Emma and Neal into creating Henry for Rumple to find.

That's what Season 3 is. Regina's entire plan to get revenge on Snow White was just a mere fraction of Rumple's entire plan to find his son again, and now we will see how Rumple's entire plan to find his son again will turn out to be a mere fraction of someone else's plan to do whatever it is they need to do that requires Henry.

BOOM. Season 3.

You're welcome.
