Crossed with what? :o

That's a horrifying thought. Not a scion at all, but a human dragged down to the depths and exposed to Lovecraftian imagery until its body and soul were twisted into a tentacular eldritch horror itself.

Now that sounds more plausible, or there are many Greek myths for example where a human has displeased the gods for one reason or another and thus are turned into something else.
One more thing, now I think she may get it after the battle by the end of chapter two. But in chapter one I got the feeling that Harry couldn't fully get across to Murphy what they were about to face. It was like she couldn't fully grasp it which is unusual for her.

However he did find a corner where Marcone was vulnerable. One has to wonder, perhaps Marcone wasn't afraid because he was trying to come up with a way to use Harry?

Marcone's attitude changed and he nodded to himself. I tend towards he recognized that Harry couldn't be bought, but was a man bound by his principles to wage war to the mattresses for causes he supported. So, a man you can point at things but not one to control or influence, and one that will tie his own hands against you if you don't give him cause.
I tend towards thinking Harry looks like a take on Hades, or some of the book covers. He is the storm, and held by his will, the power to unleash hell.
Could you imagine that? Id-Harry staring into your soul, looking . . .considering . . .while holding the leash of the hounds of hell loosely?
Conspiracy Theorist:
Harry is wondering how to get close enough to Ethnui to use the Athame without being turned to a pile of dust. I think the answer is on the cover, he attaches the Athame to his staff and fires it at the eye like he did Hailstones in SG. We may even get to see the super punch he build into this version of his staff which we haven’t really seen used yet. Of course he then needs to recover the Athame afterwards. Harry even tells us what happened with Lugh in the same position.
The other tactic depends on whether he figures out who Mac is and uses him to get close to Ethnui.
