Dead Beat Question
Bad Alias:
--- Quote from: dspringer1 on November 16, 2018, 04:56:07 PM ---Half right. He ordered Bob to forgot his time with Kemler. He did NOT limit Bob to only general knowledge. Bob was limited to what he learned about Kemler from the time he was not with Kemler. That means (in practice) only general knowledge at the beginning of Dead Beat. But the order was specific to Kemler, not information about Kemler.
Harry was targeting the evil personality of Bob.

So you agree that he was limited to general knowledge, like the book said, and therefore, Bob would not have known how Kemmler had described the Darkhallow?
--- Quote ---"Can you still remember general knowledge about Kemmler?"
"Nothing you couldn't find in other places. But general knowledge I learned when Justin was with the Wardens, yes.
--- End quote ---
Emphasis added.
I'm not saying Harry ordered Bob to only remember general knowledge; I'm saying Harry limited Bob to general knowledge by ordering him to forget his time with Kemmler. I'm only saying what Harry asked, and Bob confirmed.
Kindler:
Is it possible Justin knew how to do the Darkhallow? Wasn't Kemmler trying to pull one off when the Council took him down for good? Justin seems like the kind of guy who would've sat down to figure out the nuts and bolts of the Ascension Ritual.
Bad Alias:
I can't find the quote, but I think the Council killed him before he could do the ritual. Additionally, I would think that the Council didn't have any idea about the Darkhallow based on Luccio and Morgan's reactions to it and Harry's explanation of it. If they had killed Kemmler during a Darkhallow, they would have known what was going on before Harry got there and explained it. Also, they would have known that they needed necromancy.

Tsar Bomba was the largest nuclear bomb that humanity ever unleashed. It was unleashed on October 30th, 1961 in our world and in the Dresdenverse. Whether it was used to kill Kemmler and that's why it was so big, or whether it ended up being bigger due to other powers being used to kill Kemmler cannot be determined at this time.
What this tells us is that Kemmler was killed the day before he could perform the Darkhollow. Whether Morgan and Luccio knew anything more than "We found Kemmler, it's all hands on deck lets end this SOB" is not known at this time.
However there are three fun historic facts about the Tsar Bomba that could tie in to Kemmler's death and other lore stuff. 1.) The island it detonated near/on is one of the northernmost land masses on the planet. 2.) It is in Archangel (the district that Archangel the capital of, so it was in Simon's backyard) 3.) You can make a pretty cool line from ground zero of the Tunguska even to the Tsar Bomba site.
