Considering Lea's obligation to protect Harry by the terms of her deal with Maggie, as revealed in SK, I do wonder whether Harry effectively sold himself to Faerie for nothing (or rather, for something he already had, if he had known and demanded it).

Lea was not obliged to helping him to confront Justin. Harry could have ran away and she could have given Ebenezar a message or just watched him until Justin ran into enough trouble to distract him from hunting Harry. Harry felt he had nowhere to hide but Lea could have assisted with that as well. The problem is we do bot know the exact words of Lea’s deal with Margaret.

Lea gave Harry the courage to do something he would never have done without her. She inspired him. That must be worth something otherwise I don’t think Lea could have made the deal.

You're probably right on Lea's "magic feather" bit. But, hey, Harry was a teenager and teenagers do some pretty stupid things.

I believe there is a WoJ that that was most, but not all, of what Lea provided Harry.

Well, Lea often hints at things but in the most vaguest ways.

As is her nature .... or nurture?  Maybe a bit of both?  Or her Mantle? LOL
At times I wish I had a clone, but then I realize, I could never live with that a-hole.

I would say being coy is both a part of her nature and her personality; if that is possible.

She does not have a mantle. Woj somewhere. Nurture would mean that you could have changed her nature in her youth which is more a human thing though humans can change her nature but that is not easy.

Well, the Leahansidhe is about luring and entrapping creative minds, or so I recall. Being playful, mysterious, and buxom would do the trick.

I'm sure you could have some effect on Lea or a Sidhe with a different upbringing.  I don't believe that the Sidhe are automatons.  But you'd probably have far less effect with a different upbringing than you would with a human.  You might not be able to change anything but the fine details.

Sounds logical though you should always be carefull with applying logic to the concept of free will  :)
