Whose the backup plan for...? - Battle Ground Spoiler

--- Quote from: Bad Alias on October 09, 2020, 02:41:59 AM ---Rashid is the first line of defense against Nemesis. Then Harry. Mab herself is a line of defense. She treated Lea. (I'm not sure if she cured her because of that comment about how she can't think about it too much).
Elaine might be a star born. We don't know. I'd expect her to be more connected to some supernatural power if she is. If she is Kumori, then she is connected to a supernatural power, and that power is the Black Council, which may or may not be entirely or partially controlled by Nemesis.
I think he was mentioned when the Summer Lady showed up. He definitely wasn't featured.

If Rashid is defense; which he is, Harry is offense. Same for Mab. My guess is that Harry is the one who can permanently banish the Outsiders or at least do so until the next Starborn is born and comes into their full power, about 666 years from now.

Will it? I am beginning to wonder, in Battle Ground they seem to be popping up all over the place.
We know Harry is one.
Drakul is one.
Listen talked like he was one.
Odd don't ya thing that two of the three are monsters? Interesting that they are born every 666 years, that is the Sign of the Beast..
In the light of that, Margaret choosing Malcolm of the pure and good heart to be Harry's father has even greater significance.
TrueMonk:
If there is allready two options in Rashid and Harry, maybe Elaine is a good third choice. She is distances from Mab because her primary connection is to summer and she is distanced from the White Council because she is not on it. The backup has to be hidden like Molly was. That they killed Harry could be a good beginning of the motivaiton for Elaine. Maybe Mab has her through a summer favour?

If anyone has her it is Sarissa.

--- Quote from: KurtinStGeorge on October 09, 2020, 02:18:53 AM ---Finally, a new contender is John Marcone. Mab might see Marcone / Namshiel as a viable choice. If Nicodemus has a plan to defeat Nemesis, Thorned Namshiel might already be all in on that plan. Whether Marcone will agree with such a plan is questionable. Marcone might balk at burning down his own empire to stop Nemesis. However, we don't how long Marcone can remain himself. Like Harry, Marcone is a very willful mortal, but breaking down mortals is what Namshiel and the other Denarians do and have done for millennia.

I'm not sure where Namshiel stands vis a vis the rest of the Fallen. He didn't dissuade Marcone from the plot to bring Nic down, so there's evidently no particular loyalty there. On the other hand, Nic referred to Namshiel losing his last host as a loss of Tessa's sorcery tutor. That may indicate their partnership was somewhat recent, since if it had been a matter of centuries, she probably would have learned all she could. He might be somewhat similar to Lasciel, making temporary alliances but ultimately playing his own agenda.
As to where he stands vis a vis Mab, if she thinks he's Nemfected because of the Arctis Tor business, I doubt she's going to be banking on him. But we still don't know whether Nemesis infecting a Denarian would infect the host, the Fallen, or both.
