_{i always wondered where this perception that grimm’s were unkillable came from. i mean, it was such an odd thing for wesen to believe, especially since we saw and were made aware of the fact that grimm’s were NOT invincible. they might be harder to kill but they can be killed and yet, a perception like that would have had to have come from somewhere and what if it was connected to the stick. we saw nick get shot twice, once straight through the heart. he should have been dead and the cop who shot him thought he was dead only to literally have him rise from the dead to kill him. i completely forgot that nick had that stick in his pocket and was just blown away by the fact that he wasn’t killed and knowing that he had it on him during that fight made me wonder…what if the same thing happened centuries ago? grimm’s had that stick or pieces of it on them and were attacked or killed by wesen only to get up and continue fighting? anyone who saw that would think that grimm’s were invincible and perhaps that is where the reapers came from. they were created specifically to kill grimm’s because everyone believed that they were unkillable. they kill grimm’s by cutting off their heads but what purpose can taking the heads with them serve unless, they thought it was the only way to make sure that grimm’s were unable to come back to life after they had died. pretty out there theory, i know but after the finale – it just feels like a lot that was unexplained throughout the series just suddenly makes sense.}
