EB McCoy after the BAT

(1/13) > >>

wardenferry419:
I am worried that Eb doesn't even make the BAT. I see him doing a big sacrifice in last casebook and going out guns blazing. Which may be how Eb would want to go.

exartiem:
I see Eb going out a different way.  He is stripped of the Blackstaff title and executed by the White/Black Council.

I could see that; the Merlin (not Arthur Langtry) has to get rid of him somehow, and convinces the rest of the Senior Council (at this point replaced) that there is no Blackstaff, and he's therefore guilty of being a warlock, perverting the Laws in exactly the kind of way the Blackstaff is supposed to prevent. Eb locks eyes with Dresden, tells him to run, and drops his death curse, somehow circumventing whatever precautions they had taken, and pretty much nuking Edinburgh, taking down the corrupted White Council (at this point mostly Black) while he was at it.

I don't see Eb going down without massive collateral damage. I can picture someone like Harry making a deal and dying quietly, but Eb... strikes me as a True Scotsman, if that makes sense.

wardenferry419:
Yep, that makes sense.

exartiem:
Actually, I see Eb going along with it.  Allowing himself to be executed in order to save Harry and the rest of the Grey Council.  Perhaps this would be the time we see a Death Blessing.
