Neal knew about the Blood tie or what ever it was called, he knew about the crystal ball and how that worked. Neal is actually 200 plus years old
so for 200 years he had to be some where.

Don’t know what blood magic has to do with it–we’ve only see in it the EF, nowhere else. Neal didn’t know how to use the Crystal Ball–Mulan had to instruct him how to use it because the first time he tried, it didn’t work. It was Mulan who managed to help him. Timeline wise, Neal is about 150-200. He was in NL as a 15 yr old, frozen in time, until he left and landed in our World in 1991, thus making his DOB on his wanted poster 1977.

Rumple was between 40 hen he became the Dark One.  He’s admitted to being around 300 years old.  So, that means his curse happened around 260 years ago.  Bae was 14 at this time which means Bae is around 274 years old.  Only a few months had gone by when Bae first went through the Vortex and he had only spent 6 months in Victorian England so he was still 14 when he arrived in our world, Emma’s world.

On Neals wanted poster he listed his DOB as March 21, 1977.  Emma showed up as a newborn in 1983, so Neal is 6 years older than Emma which puts him @ 22 when Emma was 16.

Neal maybe didn’t know how to used the Crystal Ball but the point is that he KNEW ABOUT the Crystal Ball.  Rumple only acquired that from Jefferson’s visit and that centuries after Bae had left home.  So only way Neal could have known about the Crystal Ball and what it could do was from having been in OZ himself.  Have to wonder how he even knew his father had it.

A blood lock was used twice.  In the EF around Cora’s crypt and again in SB around Cora’s office when she and Emma were trying to smoke out Z.

Nothing has been confirmed that Neal has or hasn’t been to OZ yet.
