Harry's paralysis long term foreshadowing?

<< < (5/7) > >>

Yes, that can still be very interesting. But of course, just like the news, something has to be covered. A slow news day will give coverage to the lesser issues, or even things that need not have coverage getting exposure.
So if the White Council were not to have all their resources being occupied, and diminished by a war. What would they be concentrating on? Their attention would be focused on something... what is it?

raidem:
One thing that I wondered about was this eyepatch and goatee thing.  Evidently the entire mirror mirror earth has this as their motif, I've argued that if this is the case that Earth has such a different vibe then I wonder about the temporal lines going into the past and back.  That the Harry's choice has such affected the culture of humanity.  It is one reason I've argued that something from the future =>past.  Bonnie, Bob, Harry's allies, Harry?

The motif comes from a star trek show by same name.

I think that the eye patch, and goatee will revolve around Harry, and those most affected by his decision.  I don't think the entire Earth will be changed in some way where good people are now bad, and bad people now good.

peregrine:
It's going to depend, I think.  Jim has said two somewhat contradictory things.  First that it's going to be goatees and eyepatches, which suggests that it's a Star Trek mirror universe where everyone is radically different.  Like the episodes of the show.  But he's also talked about the Choice Harry makes, which suggests that he's the primary focus.  And as Michael has said, if Harry goes bad, Michael will be there to stop him.  Likewise many of the other characters would not change that much.  Depending on what and how, we may see changes to Thomas, Murphy, the Alphas, maybe Eb, to make them different from the kind of people we know, but others, say, Morgan, the Merlin, probably Mab, would be the kind of people we already know, with the difference being how they react to Harry.

raidem:
It was the entire culture or feel of the mirror mirror universe that had me speculating about some time related feedback loops that arise post choice but then affect distant past.  It is like Harry's choice created a new universe from that present on, but the mirror mirror universe started to create some of its own past that then gets propagated back to the future.  We know there are entities that straddle the timeline at the same time so the twinned universe could be propagated via them or any time travelers going into the past, etc.
