Well, apparently you need a passcode to enter the vault and Neal sort of died for......anyway,

The Vault is an underground cavern that has the Dark Goo protecting the door to the dagger, but why?

How is it that their is sentitent Darkness in the vault? It makes since because it's like a well of Darkness, but appparently can't escape.

If that is so why did Merlin not just trap all of it down there?

Next is the door inside the Vault. It led to the vision land that Snow and Chamring saw. In the background it looked like there was a waterfall of Darkness. Is that the source of the Darkness? That's what flows throught the cavern and is releases when the Dark One reforms. Why didn't Rumple just keep his dagger there because no one could get to it anyway?

Is this the realm the borthplace of the Darkness and what is it? A not-Neverland, not-Avalon?
