What is somewhat annoying about this topic is that it may be several books before Harry has a conversation with anyone else about the Walkers.

Which is why I started the thread about being confused. On one page in Battle Ground the entity occupying Justine calls itself Nemesis, on the next page it says it's name is He Who Walks Beside, an Outsider Walker. What is confusing is we've known about Outsiders from Storm Front on,about Outsider Walkers from White Night on,Nemesis from Cold Days on, but the question of whether they are separate or the same has never been cleared up. Battle Ground sort of implies they are the same, but are they?

I think it was pretty clear. My bet is that Nemesis is just an alias for Beside. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.

Also "Old Ones." From Outside, we've had mention of Outsiders, Walkers, and Old Ones. Walkers are the Old Ones knights or captains, and Outsiders are the foot soldiers. I assume Old Ones and Walkers are also considered Outsiders, just with a more specific name, but I can see them being Insiders who were obliviated and created the Outsiders.
Dina:
I am wondering if Nemesis can just leave and let behind its host, more or less unharmed. Because I've been thinking what could happen with Justine as the baby grows and there is a chance that Nem-Justine realizes the Hunger is weakening her and the risk for her host is big, so Nemesis just jumps from her to another host (probably random). If that is the case, Justine will find Harry and ask his help (he probably will soulgaze her, because he is soulgazing/sighting everyone now). Another option is that Nem-Justine tries to blackmail Harry the same way that it blackmailed Thomas, to ask him for something that would help it, perhaps to ensure the delivery but with a way of escape. Of course, it that is the case, it won't work as planned but it will escape, perhaps back to the NN.

I don't think Nemesis cares, it will use Justine as long as it needs to, it may have already have left her because there is no more to be gained by possessing her. Whether or not Justine dies from the pregnancy doesn't matter to it, nor do I think the Hunger demon affects it, they might even be working together.
Dina:
I don't know. I thought if Justine died some part of Nemesis died too, and I don't know if that is irrelevant for it. If there is a maximum number of hosts it can infect, each one matters a little.
