What do you look forward to in Peace Talks?

I don't think we'll see it yet in Peace Talks, or even Battle Ground...  But I observe the Jim has laid the groundwork for a really potent power-up for Harry.

We know that point-to-point Gateways are possible, apparently by creating back-to-back openings to the Nevernever, such that you can step into one gate and out of the other, in the same step.

We know that you can cast across a Nevernever-gate.  Cowl attacked Harry that way (in the Raith Deeps), etc.

In principle, then...

Harry could stand on Demonreach, with full Warden power and all those ley-lines, and open a gateway to wherever he needs to be really REALLY powerful.
 

(edit:  I guess this is a WAG, more than an on-topic post for the thread... apologies;  "wannasee tax" -- Gotta +1 looking forward with both dread and amusement to the scene where Molly tells her 'rents "oh yeah... now I'm a faerie, and immortal, and...")

TrueMonk:
On the plus side, an immortal kid is sort of the dream scenario for a parent is it not? There is one kid that will never be in a car accident etc. :-D

I guess the soulfire can help with making stable ways as well. Harry: I use my soulfire gate to blast people with power from condensed evil.

If it happens I also guess it is for later.

I look forward to hearing more about the artifacts.

Oh yeah. I feel like it could be a tad too soon for Harry to get a power up. He could get put through the wringer, hear some revelations, then have to do some emotional work in order to earn his next power up.

Supposedly -- from the blurb released -- he's going to need a power up when "the last Titan" comes to town.  But we already suspect (from the cover of Battle Ground) that he's got that one covered, by mounting the Spear of Longinus onto his staff...

I was thinking that he probably doesn't get that one AND to set up Demonreach's power to go anywhere he wants it to...

Harry's still doing is same spell to open his Ways, and notices (often) how much more impressive OTHERS' openings are... like, everybody who CAN do it, does it better than Harry.  So it'll be a while before he's doing the more-sophisticated variants.

But the groundwork is in place (or so I WAG).

Bad Alias:
Harry's getting a powerup. He's not pregnant anymore. That's got to count for something. He's got Bonnie, for whatever she's going to be worth. He'll at least have a copper shield bracelet (because he had it Jury Duty). It's really more of a question of how much of a powerup he's getting and whether he losses some power.
