The DH in DB would only have taken out 2 or 3 square miles of life. I know, that's still a lot, but not the entire population of Chicago.

Fair Point. Harry said everything within a mile which Im taking as a radius, or 3.14 sq. mi. At a population Density of 11,898.29/sq mi. So that puts a rough number required for a Mab-beating Darkhallow at a bit shy of 40,000. I know the reds had something of a stranglehold on South American, I honestly dont know if they'd be able to transport and Disappear that many people or not.
--- Quote ---One theory that I believe to be true is that Cowl was seeking the power to fulfill a deal with the Reds, that when he got the power he'd break through the wards at the Wouncil's headquarters.

Harry's theory, so I give it a good deal of weight, though I guess he can still be wrong.
--- Quote ---Now that's not to say that him with the power wouldn't be like hitting a fly with a sledgehammer, but I'm not so sure he'd be THAT much more powerful.
Another theory was that the blood sacrifices were empowering a spell that COULD punch through the wards.

The comparison Im more looking at is that Cowl(DH)>Mab, and after CD Im convinced that Mab couldnt pop Demonreach.
--- Quote ---Again, all that being said, I believe that DR is FAR more impregnable than Edinburgh.

Concur.
Curious: There's that line in CD where Mab shows up tense, asked teh Wardens permission, then kinda sorta apoligizes to Alfred. She relaxes when he acknowledges it as if he lowered a weapon. I wonder if she was worried that Alfred would view her and Maeve as essentially the same thing (being chunks of the same proto-mantle or whatever the deal is), and was relieved to see he'd developed the nuance to deal with diplomatically.

I took it as something on many levels. Mab recognizing DR's dominion over this spot of the planet and paying the requisite respect. Also, we don't know what they "talked" about while Harry was recovering. It could have been something like, DR didn't like a being of power being present as long as she was, without being interred. And she was asking permission to AGAIN enter his domain. ALSO, her letting him know she was there, not to fight him, but to help resolve the issue at hand.
