I worked three episodes at the beginning of s06, but otherwise the rest of it is pretty non-memorable to me.
Seasons 1-4 I remember well enough to find a scene without having to watch whole episodes. Seasons 5 and 6, not so much.
WRT your other thoughts about Z and the staff, I lean toward Monroes's speculation that Z and the other place are analogous to the devil and hell in his family bible, which would suggest that Z ended up banished to the other place after losing an ancient war against others of his own kind. Possibly, the stick was a piece that got broken off the staff in the struggle. Or if the staff got even more splintered, maybe Z spent several centuries putting it back together only to discover that the last piece he needed didn't get sent to the other place with him. Maybe whoever banished him deliberately kept it back so that Z wouldn't be able to fully reassemble the staff and use it to return?
That would make the cloth the equivalent of a warning label that said something like, "Danger: do not use when planets are aligned as shown in the figure."
