Or riding Sue.
If the Genowskwa is back Godzilla v Kong.
Kermit is too nice an insult for Corb on its own. Kermit the Corb, yes.
I go with a mashup of Beatrix Potter and South Park, Jeremy Fishsticks

Sue was badass way back in book whatever I forget at the moment...I wonder how she'll turn out with Soufire added in...

Quite possibly. I was thinking that though the Swords cancel out supernatural protections, it would probably still work like mundane armor... maybe better than ordinary bronze, Etri calls it an 'alloy' which might suggest that its superiority isn't just a matter of active magic like Harry's duster.
Whereas even mundane armor wouldn't be any use against new Fidelacchius.

I doubt it... the Fomor seem pretty monstrous already.
And I would tend to think a being significantly stronger than Mab might be immune to Nemfection.

Hmm - I wonder if using Soulfire could make her more "alive" than "undead"?
(And Dead Beat was book 7.)

Yeah, but she doesn't get involved.
--- Quote ---There are many more actively worshipped gods stronger than Ethniu

I dunno. I think the gods are mostly either far-diminished (like Odin and possibly the Lords of Outer Night, if they ever really were gods rather than faking it) or distinctly not intervening in the mortal world.
And there may not be as many out there as it seems, given the possibility of one being holding multiple mantles and names (Odin and Kringle and Beowulf are all Vadderung) and cross-overs between different mythologies (Grendel was a Bigfoot). Vadderung might also be Mercury and Thoth (historically the ancient Romans considered Wotan/Odin and Thoth to be Mercury worshiped under other names).
Not sure how much worship has to do with the amount of power a being has. I think that's a feature of other fantasy universes, not a Dresdenverse thing. Knowledge of a being can be relevant to give a being access to the mortal world... but belief isn't required, much less worship - knowledge of it in a fictional context is good enough, from "Backup".
Ethniu seems stronger than Odin in PT and I don't think she was really ever worshipped even in pre-Christian Ireland; the Fomorians were more monsters than gods. If she were, her worship certainly would have died out long before Odin's. (Ireland became Christian well before Scandinavia.)
