A pity he didn't try that in Ghost Story. That would have been a hell of a sucker punch to use on Corpsetaker, and throwing it as a weapon in ghost form might have been a loophole to allow forgetting it.

--- Quote from: EBRIEN on October 22, 2020, 07:47:43 PM ---Doesn't the Nag also gain power when brought up? Something about the more they're discussed, the more they gain or remain? There was a conversation about not mentioning them because you never know who might be listening or that the person you're speaking to could be one.

You draw their attention, remember in BG Harry was able to summon Titania by a mere three recitations of her name, no ceremony, but then Harry draws her attention for other reasons. In SG, everyone was unhappy about using Hades name for the same reason. Any wizard saying a Naagloshii’s true name would draw their attention, but Naagloshii is a species name not personal name.

Pretty sure they draw power from the spread of their existence too. Maybe the natives are trying to oblivate them and they're close?

And because it's a Sight memory, it will never fade or dull.

I appreciate so much the moment in CE when he mentioned that the money number were with prime numbers. It was a call out to that Naagloshii moment, and it was a subtle, perfect way to show how disturbing it was for Harry to think in all the casualties of the battle. Whenever his mind is overwhelmed, Harry comes back to math.
