The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Has anyone put Nic's plan togther?
groinkick:
Nicodemus wanted the Archive. He now wants the Artifacts. Are the two connected or separate? Could Mavra obtaining the Book of Kemmler be a connection? What theories do you for what Nicodemus is up to?
Mr. Death:
I don't think Nicodemus has "a" plan. As old as he is, he must have learned a long time ago not to put all your eggs in one handbasket, so he no doubt has several concurrent plans. They might well all be headed toward the same ultimate goal, but I think it's more likely we've seen multiple, different plans he's attempting rather than seeing steps in one cohesive plan -- especially considering those steps keep getting foiled.
Given Nicodemus doesn't appear to have any players involved in Dead Beat, I don't think the Word of Kemmler is at all connected.

I would be shocked if there wasn't a connection between what Mavra was up to and what Nic was up to. It would make sense that both sides would want to gather as much WMD as possible before the final show down.. I wouldn't be shocked if there wasn't an all out effort to corrupt Harry or get to him in some way.. I could see poor little Maggie being the object they go after once more to get to Harry.. This time though any one trying to get to her will have to go through Mouse first..

Yeah that's a valid point. I was just wondering if there is some sort of group (black circle) or whatever that will all come together towards the end. That many of the things Harry has been up against are all connected, and working together in separate cells to throw off people (and readers) to what's going on. Of course I have also theorized that there are a few different story arcs that will each be addressed in the 3 BAT books. I think the latter is more likely but find the other interesting as well.

I actually think that her being away at school, with Mouse is Jim's way of kind of making her a non issue for Dresden. Kind of like the angelic protection for Michael's family. If there was a constant threat he'd not really be able to be an effective Knight, nor would Harry be effective at what he's doing.
Perhaps there is an arms race of sorts and Nicodemus is not at all aligned with Mavra but they are both arming up for whatever is going to happen. Perhaps she's planning on raising an army when the chaos unfolds.
