There are limits to magic based on the person who uses it.  Harry gets tired flipping over a car with magic.  Uriel can destroy galaxies with no effort.  There is a reason Mab is so feared, and her power scale is far below that of Uriel.  If the entire White Council  can't take on Mab, why would anyone be able to contain Uriel?

Curiously i'm not sure how I feel on this one, on one hand i'd give it to the angels as outsiders, on the other I remember how damned worried Uriel was when Harry tried to give him a nickname.... but that could specifically be a starborn feature in Harry affecting things.

GK,  I really do get what you are saying.  I'm still of the opinion that a mortal wizard DOES have the ultimate power.

The ultimate power in the dresdenverse is the power to tell stories. A good story that catches on changes how the spiritual world manifests in the dresdenverse.

I'm not so sure about story telling.  Though that is a kind of magic on it's own.

The Archive is based upon it and there is a reason Mab thinks the Grimm book is so important. Odin changed when his story changed.
