Could Mavra be under Eb's control?

Oh, good grief. Dresden would LOVE that new relation.

And that's why it would be so epic!

Do we know this for a fact? Harry noticed that the fabric of her medieval outfit was cotton rather than wool, meaning it was of modern manufacture. Maybe Mavra is old, but no so old as she pretends. Mavra would pretend to be a few hundred years older than her actual age in order to make herself a more mysterious figure, enhance her reputation and make other magic users think twice about taking her on in a fight. The Black Court's greatest strength before Stoker's book was lack of knowledge about them. Mavra might have decided this was a good personal defence too.
However, that's just a WAG, and not a very serious one. There's something really pathetic about Mavra sticking with medieval clothing; which in every painting, period movie or museum manikin I've seen in such outfits, doesn't look very comfortable. Mostly it looks like it was designed to keep people warm, which isn't really a problem Mavra faces. It's like she's trying to hold onto a tiny piece of who she once was.

I'm Wagging She's actually Morgana Le fay herself, just changed by an unfortunate incident with the Blamps. Because of how Blamps appear to be though, I think her transformation separated her from Nemesis proper,(whom is equated on some level to the Greek deity) though her past self still holds the same connections/mirroring's.... Think Nemesis is Mother level and Morgana was ousted from say, queen level.

Yup, per WOJ: "I think she's about 600."
