Was Malcolm a Scion of an Angel? Eb appears to have seen him under the sight.
--- Quote ---"She met your father. A man. A mortal, without powers, without influence, without resources. But a man with a good soul, like few I have ever seen. I believe that she fell in love with him.

That is a weird description, like something you would say about a saint.  Malcolm is also the only character that speaks to Harry from the afterlife.

I've often thought that, or more in the line of Sir Galahad, the purest and noblest knight of the round table.

Conspiracy Theorist:
I believe that Malcolm may have been like Father Forthill, effectively a saint without the formal canonisation, just doing good and making the world a better place in a 1,000 small ways each day, making him very rare. This would suggest that upon his death he also received the treatment being reserved for the good father, in shepherding his soul, effectively in D&D catergories a cleric (opposed to the Knights who are Paladins, although Michael a retired Paladin is now also a cleric, and Butters was a cleric who became a Paladin.)

We actually know nothing of Malcolm’s faith, only his deeds and the opinions of those who knew him. But if Malcom was a Saint then he was definitely marked for special attention by the same forces who were after Father Forthill’s soul, quite apart from his relationship with Margaret and Harry.

We know Lord Raith was after Margaret, and that several groups within and without the White Council were after Harry as a Starborn, but someone else was probably after Malcolm, and they may have allied with others to achieve both their ends.

Mira:

Malcolm is the reason Harry won't be and isn't like the other starborn we have seen.  It is repeatedly stated, he has his father's heart.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Harry had his father first and foremost, Christmas Eve reminded Harry of this when he needed this most, at his lowest ebb. It is Malcolm I believe who prevented Harry from being a Destroyer, initially, re-inforced in Grave Peril by Michael, and later on at various times by Shiro, Sanya, Murphy, Butters and Father Forthill. Each of those people reminded him of his father, not physically, but because of what they are.

Mirror Harry diverged from Harry Prime in Grave Peril, he almost certainly broke with Michael, the Knights, Murphy and Father Forthill then, which is why that universe is doomed.

I wonder if Harry had had the opportunity to soulgaze Malcolm or view him through his third eye, what he would have seen? I like to think his father with a dove on each shoulder each flapping a single wing in perfect symmetry.
