While the Templars had sponsors, they technically were subject to no one's authority but the pope's. I think the reason they took the shard and stayed in Germany until their death is due to the fact that this actually was a pagan relic and bringing it to the pope would have resulted in its destruction or theirs.
At the same time, I also think the Big Z was alive and well and not making any impression or creating havoc. Instead, it was pursuing the shard. The Templars got it first and Big Z pursued them. Unlike Nick, however, the Templars found a way to banish him to the mirror dimension. They buried the shard, believing he would never be able to return.
If the Big Z had the ability to peer into our world, he may have known where the shard was buried and intended on getting it if he were able to return.

The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
