Possible reasons why Thomas attacked Mr. Etri
vultur:
Whoever is responsible (Justine, Mab, Nemesis, Thomas himself) - why?
That is, why would anyone particularly want to kill Etri (or Austri)?
The svartalves seem to kind of keep to themselves mostly, so they're not much of a threat, and they don't seem central to holding the Accords together or a primary combative force, so it's not clear why they'd be particularly high on the bad guys' list.

That is the real weakness in my opinion of Peace Talks, Harry didn't even manage an outline of a working theory. Those are the ties that bind the story together, hopefully we will get motive in Battle Ground.

The only group we know with a grudge against Etri is the Fomor. They will be angry about what happened to their noble in Bombshells.

Yeah, I need to go back and reread Bombshells.. However if the Fomor is the only group that we know of that has a grudge Etri, that suggests that Thomas was acting for them. The question then becomes why, if it true? Reason against, everyone that Thomas has worked with or helped from Harry to Butters are against the Fomor for a number of reasons. So just what could the Fomor offer him to make him do such a thing? Do they have some cure for Justine? Or is there another group out there no one has heard of? Or does it all go back to Mab again who is orchestrating a huge diversion that backfired or seemingly backfired for her greater chess game?
vultur:
Yeah, maybe the Fomor, but I was thinking they'd blame their loss in "Bombshells" more on the BFS (and maybe Winter since Molly is Winter Lady now) than on the svartalves.
