A Hypothetical Diplomatic Incident
Arjan:
For a human wizard breaking the law is a choice. A free willed choice that can change your nature. A warlock’s nature urges you to break the laws even more but it stands to reason that as long as you keep your free will you can change your nature by making other choices however difficult it might be.

Arjan: Slowing time is kins of like swimming against the current, so I don't know. It's probably a grey area. I think there is something to be said for free will and one's ability to change. Atleast it matter to Uriel.
Ed0517:
Fix probably has diplomatic immunity - for the killer - but it may be an act of war if he attacks the Warden - and vice versa. I would not be surprised if Fix toasts him, and then when Harry (or Carlos, or Bill Meyers) comes in, he says "OK, take me in, it's a Summer Court and White Council matter, as in the Accords. " Plus, as noted, he has no innate magic - he is using the mantle given to him. The Mantle is the weapon, much like the White Council has not said anything about Harry SHOOTING Corpsetaker to death - but not via magic. He used a weapon.
I'ma little surprised Harry can BE the Winter Knight. That's an agent of Winter. Not an employee. I can WORK for, say, a Canadian company, but I can't be an envoy of their government... I don't think I could get diplomatic immunity for them.
Walter the skull:
The mantle being the weapon is a good point. I think the council is pissed that Harry is the Winter Knight.

But that happens all the time if you go to the nevernever and back. Start executing half the council.
