So you can bargain with one wyldfae, or murder a couple, but when you go after them in job lots, Mab and Titania will take an interest.

I would tweak the White Council claim just a bit - not humans as their interest, but minor practitioners. Like when Harry and Carlos challenged on their behalf in the duel right before the Battle of the Deeps.

Remember that a group like that was enough for Harry to take down Aurora before other power ups.  That that was how he did it is probably not widely known, but uniting the Little Folk is not a small feat to totally escape notice.

Yeah, I think that's a really good analogy.

It may also be a clue of what's to come...  Harry leading the Wild Fae.  Perhaps Kringle is grooming him for the job, and Dresden isn't even aware of it.

I believe that was strictly Harry if I remember correctly, that is why Toot tells him that it just isn't because of the pizza that he and his friends are loyal to him.

 Harry was challenging on the behalf of the Ordo Lebes, the minor human wizards who were below Council level. Granny Malvora was saying they were not signatories, but Harry argued they were in the interests of the Council, and Papa Raith let it go.  Harry having them freed in his name after the fight was just a bonus.
