LC and the Outer Gates
morriswalters:
If Mab wanted to preserve LC it would be in dry storage somewhere. I doubt she needs it since I think the Outer gates serve a similar purpose. The metaphor of a giant looking over the world looks like signaling to me. Jim's try to show us or tell us something.

If Jim wants it, LC will have survived. I think your POV on the symbolism also suggests he may want to revisit that element.
Lea could have preserved it -- it was her garden on the other side, after all, and "saving Harry's stuff" might have seemed well-within the whole "faerie godmother" purview; certainly his stash IN her garden was treated that way!
Certainly it COULD have been preserved, if Jim still has use for it.

Little Chicago is gone:
--- Quote ---#330 “Jim–someone else asked this as well, but I couldn’t see an answer: Little Chicago wasn’t mentioned in Turn Coat, and was barely mentioned in Changes… was it destroyed in the fire? Did the FBI notice it? It’s it gone for good?”
It was made of (mostly) pewter. The rest was plastic. Harry hadn’t taken steps to make it less destructible (which would have interfered with its function anyway–it was built to be sensitive, not tough). There was just no way it could have survived the fire. And no, the FBI didn’t confiscate it.
Changes is, in many ways, about loss. About encountering it and feeling its pain. That happens to all of us, sooner or later. There’s no avoiding it.
The real question is, how do you pick up the pieces and keep going, afterward.

You take your knowledge, get to the BAT, go back in time with Bonea, make her the Archive, build the Outer Gates as an advanced type of LC, build a prison for dark gods, rent a room in the prison and go into stasis, wait until old you leaves to come out. And then go kick ass in the conclusion. Or some crazy shit like that. ;)
Snark Knight:
Mab could probably just do the spell without a focus item at all.
