The Law

<< < (27/27)

Dina:
Yes, that is all true.

Conspiracy Theorist:
One wonders what all the mediation Harry is undertaking in Little Things is for. The Law makes it clear he isn’t sleeping and has now fully equipped his personal armaments, and he is stymied on the Thomas and Justine situation, so I think he is doing something, something big, and something he hasn’t done before and which might impress even Eb.

I think he is moving the access point of the Castle from Leas Murder Garden in the Never Never to somewhere a bit safer, as a panic room for Maggie. The Winter Knights quarters in Arctis Tor, deep in Winter. I think having Toot and the Za Guard move in was to aid this,  they are Winters Soldiers so both are now fortresses of Winter staffed by Winters warriors and both contain the personal quarters of the Winter Knight. Is so that is a feat we have only seen someone at Leas power level or above achieve. Mab almost certainly helped with Hades Vault.

If that works then if the Castle is under attack, Maggie and Mouse go to Arctis Tor under Mab’s protection as the child of her Vassal, and Harry is free to wreak havoc on the intruders.

I have posited that Arctis Tor also contains the access point for Demonreach in Mab’s Ice Garden, which the Gatekeeper and Mab used Harry might not realise this. When he does he can parkour along the corridors of Arctis Tor to Demonreach in a couple of minutes to get crystals or superweapons.

The other thing he is probably working on is how to teleport himself and the bad guys to the Lakeshore so he can summon Alfred. Water grounds magic so it might be a bit risky teleporting over a large body of water. That would explain why Demonreach is on an island. It strikes me that following The Law there is a nice Lake Shore residence whose owner has gone missing and won’t be missed, which would be ideal to set a circle up on.

But he told us several times that he studied, that he was a sort of magical nerd. And he has Bob for questions. I find weird that he does not know that particular world, but of course, it may be that I am in the wrong and the word is not as common as I imagine, unless you have an specific background (or saw a picture called "The apotheosis of the dollar" when you were a chiild, as I did  :D)

Well, his knowledge gap never surprised me as much as the non-existent gap in his knowledge of pop culture. He knows too many references by heart for someone who 1. Doesn't have much time. 2. Can't use technology.

Oh, no... he had every intention of teaching them about the White Council... as dangerous enemies.

He would do that immediately after getting them both completely Enthralled.

As for the "Laws of Magic," I expect the curriculum there was "... more like guidelines, really."  He doesn't want them powering-up their OWN mojo until after Enthrallment, lest they resist him; and Lawbreaking is a quick path to power.  So he would likely have carefully explained those as very-risky "advanced magic" (that he'd teach them later (and he would have)).
