Did Harry focus the Tank?

Thats how I interpret it. Rashid focused on the wrong enemy (tank) allowing a more dangerous enemy to attack and wound Demonreach.
Rasins:
I'm still convinced that Kemmler was the last WARDEN, and it was Rashid's job to prevent DR from defending Kemmler.
As to the wounding of DR, his limp is from a Glacier, per Jim.

Can you tell us more about the runes on the cottage and the lighthouse?
They were not put there by Demonreach; they have been there a very long time. They are pre-Council. They’re a prehistoric script, actually. Harry could have figured out the script if he’d had the comic book. NOTE: I think this has something to do with runes on a wall in Under City seen in Welcome to the Jungle
Also, people have a few things wrong about the Gatekeeper and the island. The Gatekeeper did not hurt Demonreach. Gatekeeper has been on the island a couple of times, and it’s never gone well, but he didn’t cause Demonreach’s limp. That’s the work of the glacier that carved out Lake Michigan.

Thanks for posting that WOJ. I have not come across that one before. Seems to suggest that maybe Demonreach was a bigger area than the island pre-lake and in the carving out of the lake (forming of the island) Demonreach was limited/injured.

In a battle you usually have a group of players:
Tank (built to absorb damage. Doesn't do a lot of damage but is very difficult to kill)
Healer (Heals the players on their team)
Damage dealer (kills the enemy team)
In a player vs player match, you never go after the Tank first. If you do all that ends up happening is you spend a lot of time and energy fighting the Tank, unable to kill them because they are built to take damage, and the healer keeps them alive. In the process the damage dealers on the other team usually kill your healer first, then the damage players, and then finish the Tank last. When players focus the Tank first they almost always lose
So my guess is Rashid went after the exact wrong person he should have, a decoy meant to be targeted.

Hmm, then I think it would make sense if in context it means that previously Rashid was part of an assault on Demonreach itself, and he made the mistake of attacking just the manifestation (is Alfred) which did no good since it's actually the island and The Well and all that. Alfred doesnt really seem the sort to expect enough from anybody (other than the Warden) to be disappointed in what they /didn't/ do, but I could see him very much holding a grudge against anyone who directly attacked him.
