The Mothers' Cottage and Earth...

future by pointing out the stone and the talk at the gates
from her and the gatekeeper.

As I said in an earlier post, looks can be deceiving.. Remember travel in the Nevernever isn't by roads as we know them, but Ways. Margaret knew many or most of them, I'd wager that Rashid does also, in fact he told Harry that he and Margaret used to have dinner together once in a while to talk about that very thing, he also was surprised that a wizard as young as Harry would make it to the Gates.. He said that even with Mother Summer acting as Harry's guide.. So from that I conclude that nothing is straight forward in the Nevernever, least of all the locations of important landmarks.

The lands of faerie are the closest region of the never never, closest to the material world. Many of the most known, used or safest ways are through the lands of faerie. I am betting that due to Maggie knowledge of the never never, and contacts amongst, she knew every way in the lands of faerie. That Alone would be valuable.

Hmmm I would think the Mothers cottage would be on the equator somewhere. It is Summer, and Winter sharing the same space so that seems logical to me.

Interesting thought, I hadn't considered that. Come to think of it, I'll bet the equator has interesting magical properties in the Dresdenverse for precisely that reason, the 'balance of forces'. The poles might as well, for opposite reasons. I would not be a bit surprised to learn that some magic is more potent cast at the equator, other magic more potent at the poles than elsewhere. There might even be spells and rituals that only work at the equator or poles.

Except on the Equator there is only the rainy and the dry season, not really what one thinks of when one thinks of Winter and Summer.
