User blog comment:Morganaforever/The Crystal of Neahtid/@comment-4814726-20120313220205

I thought the crystal was just for Seeing, (past, present, future) but I guess the writers could make it do other stuff too. Only I don't think its likely that they'll bring it back up. They abandon lots of cool stuff like that and I don't even need to give any examples as we all kow quite a few. They very rarely carry more than one to three plots throughout a season. One always being Arthur/Gwen, then with series 2 they had the onrunning tension of the dragon being freed, then with 3 they did the water from the lake of avalon and freya, and with series 4 they actually stepped it up and didn't hit the reset button so much. With Gwen being banished, lancelot's death and how it was used, the leading up to the last usurping of camelot. But we have yet to see the crystal of neahtid be used in a plot again. Obviously the writers are thinking merlin is scared of it and doenst want anything to do with it, and Morgana might not know where it is. Maybe she just doesn't feel like "wasting her time" when all of her other schemes are going "so perfectly". As for my opinion, I would love to see the crystal come up again. Here's to hoping. XD
