We know for a fact that the Knight mantles do not work that way.

"Fact" is a strong word that should be used carefully.  In one case we have the Knight Mantle going to the Summer Lady, in another we have the Winter Knight Mantle not going to the Lady upon the death of the Winter Knight.  I don't think we know for a fact what exactly the Mantle does or why, only some strong evidence that it goes back to Winter/Summer.  Even Titania thought Winter had somehow stolen the Summer Knight Mantle, so we don't know how exactly it works.

We don't, and do, Can't remember whom but someone said it goes back to the nearest reflection of itself... It being more or less a 'shadow' like Lasciel's, a bit connected directly to them, it would tend therefor to go back to one of them.... except if a greater mirror should exist that has not been identified. Though the table itself is kinda the cause of why the WK did not go to the lady or queen directly(which Mab was closer...)

Ananda:
I think they’re a bad match to begin with. While she had her career, self esteem and so intact, she had no real interest. It was only after her self esteem, self worth, etc. was laid low that she changed her standards. I think she was quite correct with her initial assessment; that she and Dresden were a poor match. So, I think, if it follows how this sort of thing would go in reality, their relationship won’t last very long or be very healthy for her.

I think they’re both pretty difficult people, but looking at it from a woman’s point of view, Dresden is a terrible potential partner.

As for “powers” or whatnot, she should definitely stay a normal person. Not every character needs to be related somehow or be granted super powers. The narrative needs a normal person’s perspective.

I generally hate shipping threads, especially Murphy ones, but I am curious. I assume from your name you are a female, what about Harry makes you think he would be a terrible partner? Aside from the potential of putting his love interests in danger, since that would obviously scare a lot of real people away, but in the books it would not be something that Murphy would see as a negative.

Arjan:
I think Karen's original accessement was correct for all the reasons she stated but her current accessment is correct as well. Harry has changed, Karen has changed, the world has changed and what both are looking for in a relation has changed.

And they are both older.

Family, children, stable life? they are all out of the picture but what they have is shared history and a very good understanding of each other. They are both older and there are a lot of things they can not share with anyone else. There are a lot of things they can not share with or explain to anyone else.

They can be each others emotional support. It can work out.
