Making things on DR
kazimmoinuddin:
Imagine a purpose built sanctum built for Bonnie with Alfred help in the construction. It could have all the features of Bob skull and do much more.

If I were Harry, there is no way I'd build a sanctum for Bonnie on the Island. I'd be afraid that the ambiance of the Island would influence her.

I think Ive gotten lost; what "Hesitation" on alfred's part are you talking about?

The one Mab thanks him for,"i know you could have chosen otherwise, and I thank you" except not sure if Chosen is the word she uses. She directly references that Alfred could have taken her summons another way though.
Seems part of the activation of the circle itself allows those using it to summon things to be taken by DR even without Warden status. Which, would make sense to me.

Im looking at the scene now and I do not think that's how it went down. As I said she addresses Harry first, and only after getting /his/ permission to set foot on DR did she turn and address Alfred. At which point she says:
--- Quote ---"“I thank you for your patience and your assistance in this matter. You could have reacted differently but chose not to. I am aware of the decision. It will not be forgotten.”
Demonreach bowed its head, barely, a gesture of acknowledgment, not cooperation or compliance."
--- End quote ---
Given that his "patience" is what she was thanking him for, I have to think she was referring to some action, or lack of, that he chose to do prior to her arrival. Id always figured this meant that Alfred had another, more proactive, response to the direct attack by the Ladies (ie. the "Rudeness" she ordered them to cease). And the loss of the Lady Mantle to the Well (and thus to her Knight's digression) could have potentially been wildly disastrous for Mab personally and for Winter as a whole.

This was specifically not the case. Per Harry in that scene, any mortal but ONLY mortals can use a Circle to Summon something. Meaning for example, Lily could not do so.
