Faerie Queens -- six of them? Really? (a WAG)

Presumably Alfred would’ve let Harry know that there had been a breach in the year Harry spent on DR before SG.

If Alfred knew, I presume so.

I don't presume Alfred would automatically have known; depending on how much effort the Fomor & Outsiders put into doing it covertly, it may not have been noticed yet.

By geting Harry focused on Sith (who is less than Mab, who in turn in less than the Mothers), it gives Harry a bone to worry at, and keeps his attention at a much lower level of action than where the real threat(s) are...

But, if we're looking at levels, Maeve/Lily is already a MUCH lower level than the Mothers as a distraction. Sith still seems utterly wasted.

vultur:
Yeah, I think if the Mothers were taken over by Nemesis, that would be the end of the universe.

I really don't think Nemesis is powerful enough to overcome an entity on that cosmic level, either.

The Mothers hanging out together is, I think, because Summer and Winter weren't originally opposed - apparently they were divided intentionally in the past. It seems that both Mothers are Atropos, and apparently all six Queens are Hecate.

I don't think the Mothers are actually very "cosmic" in scale.  They are Summer and Winter, very (VERY!) Earth-centric beings.

A being like Uriel, it's said, can "destroy whole galaxies just by thinking about it."

I think WoJ has varied over time, concerning relative power-scales of the various beings.  I don't know whether latest WoJ on this topic clearly list the Mothers and the Archangels on a single, comparable power-scale... or not.
