Little things I noticed in the Dresden Files

First a minor point.  Maeve shot a gun.
--- Quote ---Not necessarily. As long as Titania was either ignorant of Lily's part or believed she'd been talked into it by Maeve, ll Maeve had to do was make it look like her actions where a her mothers behest and Titania would probably assume Mab had gone rouge. That was her whole plan A for Dresden, make him think Mab was the one that had gone insane, no reason she couldn't be planning to try the same on Titania.

If Lily had survived the event the balance of power would have not been altered.  No reason for the courts to throw down.  At least it doesn't seem to fit.

I think she was just out to spite her mother any way she could, and tearing the courts apart and undermining their purposes did that the only way she could.

Doesn't track, the echoes aren't a result of the attack, their a result of the future in which the well IS breached. That means Demonreach would have to be willing to not take action even if it meant the well was breached.

Demonreach understands that better than us, he had to dumb it down for Bob. He understood it was still just a potential future.

--- Quote ---The more likely answer is the old chestnut about the more power something has the more limited it's options. It likely couldn't take action without Harry's permission. And Harry didn't know enough about how the island worked or what it could do to use that. If he had he could probably have broken the circle and shut Maeve ad Lilly down in the first few seconds after he stepped ashore. I mean it's magic could see off a freaking Walker off and according to WoJ could even take Mab. Lilly and Maeve didn't really have a hope if it acted.

It was attacked. If Mab said it could have acted differently I tend to believe her. But it knew Maeve belonged to Mab so it decided to wait for her.

Erm, I feel certain it was to the sudden arrival within preprogrammed defenses of an entity directly summoned by the Warden.... how do you think the Warden adds new inmates? Activate spell form, summon creature that DR has standing orders to take below. Notice she only sets foot on the land after permission is given, and reacts like a finger lifted from a trigger. It was for herself she was worried in that moment.

Maz:
Ok, stupid question time...
Kringle said the Banefire would actually kill the inmates?
And its Halloween?

Was someone trying to Darkhallow the Island? 
You've got the fuel...  on a freaking epic level.
You've got a giant circle.
You've got the method of sacrifice.
I mean if the Darkhallow with the native spirits would have made a minor god...
This would have made someone who could rival... even Uriel's boss.

Mr. Death:
The Darkhallow appears to require a particular Necromantic set up that was not in evidence.
