The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
I am 99% sure that Cowl is Dresden from the future

Yeah, you know it could very well be that Cowl is Cowl, and Kumori is Kumori, characters with their own place in the story not Harry or Elaine or someone else coming back from the future. We also have to be careful with the time travel stuff or parallel universe stuff, one can go to that well once too often. I know it is fun to say wouldn't be cool if X,Y, and Z changed because Harry went back in time or crossed over into an alternate universe, but at the same time that could screw up a lot of other story lines that you think are so cool. It also makes for very lazy writing, screw up a character? Oh fix it with time travel..
Also Mirror Mirror, in the alternate universe Harry may not even be interested in Susan. Or Murphy may be a corrupt cop, Eb may have taken in six year old Harry, or both Margaret and Malcolm live.. Or they never get together and Harry and Thomas become full half vamp brothers. What I am saying is if Harry is different, everyone is different. Or Harry is the only one who isn't different, he is the constant in both universes. This is how the original classic Trek played out, everyone was the opposite with the exception of Spock who had integrity in both universes, he is also wasn't in the transporter accident that caused the event to happen in the first place. One more thing on that, Kirk urged the other Spock to assassinate the other Kirk, thinking that would improve things in that alternate universe. But would it? Actually very irresponsible of Kirk to suggest it because he is throwing a monkey wrench into the machinery according to his own moral values and walking away assuming that the effects will be good. Violation of the prime directive once again, short term it may seem like a good thing, but is it in the long term?

Rant incoming.
(click to show/hide)According to the theory base, everybody is infected by Nemesis, Harry fixed LC by time travel. Justin isn't dead. Simon didn't die at Archangel and now Harry is Cowl. Since I don't like time travel stories. I'm biased against them. I'm also biased against Nemesis did it. Everybody and their brother is Nemfected. Either one makes anything possible. My newest thing not to like is the lack of permanent death. Somewhere in the back of Jim's mind nobody has permanently died since the first book. First he kills the ugly Bigfoot and the resurrects him. I expect Margaret back any day. Bah, humbug.

yea, even I have to admit the genoska coming back flummoxed me entirely. That's the kind of thing an immortal with a mantle could do, but he wasn't, he had to be mortal to use the coin..
