--- Quote from: kbrizzle on May 17, 2019, 03:55:04 PM --- I’ve always liked the theory that Sells was being sponsored by Lord Raith. The naming convention of Raith’s businesses have the prefix Silver in them, just like Sells’ previous employer. Being magically impotent, Raith needs to act through mortal sorcerers that he cultivates (not unlike what he did with the pornstars in BR).

There's a lot to like in that theory (especially the "silver," a nice touch and IMHO very persuasive!) .

The ultimate origin of ThreeEye -- and Sells' other high-grade magic -- is still unknown (where did Raith get it??!?); but I suppose that could all be hand-waved as something he got as spoils in conquering some prior practitioner(s).  Or maybe he was secretly Black Council (or their pawn) and got it from them.

It’s a theory that’s been floating around on the forum for a while (& fairly persuasive). My guess would be that Raith got the formula from his Outsider “sponsor”

Bad Alias:
I like your theory, but think it is wrong because Jim has said something to the effect that Harry isn't going to be involved in the Oblivion War.

Where is that? My recollection is that it is heavily implied that three eye came from whoever was Victor's sponsor, but I'd still say we don't know who that was. I'd say it was someone from the Black Council, and the only confirmed members are Cowl, Kumori, and Peabody. (For how I think about the terms Black Council, Circle, and Nemesis see: https://www.paranetonline.com/index.php/topic,52610.0.html).

@Bad Alias
I believe Kindler is referring to when Lily reveals the existence of the Adversary to Harry in CD - she mentions Sells (not by name) as an example of Nfection.

As an aside, what if 3Eye came from Margaret sr? We know that she was always try to find the legal gray area in the Laws of Magic to show the Council their limitations. What if she came up with a drug similar to 3Eye since it doesn’t technically break any of the Laws?

Maybe Raith Sr. gets it from her while they’re together & then uses it when he sees the best opportunity.
