Was the time distortion ever explained?

(1/4) > >>

groinkick:
I don't recall if it was ever flushed out but when Harry was trying to stop Maeve on Demon Reach there was a time distortion issue.  Was it the Walker doing it?  Maeve?  Cowl?  I don't recall. Odin said something about happening a few days before or something.

Bad Alias:
I think there was an implication that a Faerie Queen was doing it.

Bad Alias:
Chapter 42:

--- Quote ---"Who could have done this?" I asked.
"You have encountered this before, wizard," Kringle said. "Can you not guess?"
"One of the Queens," I muttered. "Or someone operating on their level."
--- End quote ---

That's when time sped up to make sure Dresden and the Hunt got to Demonreach too late.

There's also the temporal shenanigans of the feedback from Demonreach exploding echoing back into the past. That was a consequence of attacking the island.

Bob talk's about that in Chapter 17:

--- Quote ---That tension that's building? It's ... Well, think of it as cause and effect, only backward.
--- End quote ---
The island is experiencing an effect of the attack before the cause because they have to attack the island through time because it was built through time. Or something like that.

groinkick:
"On the queen's level" is interesting.  So it could have been a Walker?

morriswalters:
Maeve does something similar after Harry rescues Molly from Arctis Tor.
