The Law
Mira:
--- Quote ---It is also clear from Turn Coat that Peabody and Rashid knew of Ways to Demonreach. However, they are clearly different Ways. Rashid came to the Docks and did not set foot on the island, whereas Peabody came to a different part of the island. Even if a Way from Arctis Tor exists to Demonreach, and Rashid used that, Peabody's way is not the same. Maeve, Lilly and Fix used hang-gliders to get to the top of the island. Binder and the White Court vampire used jet skis.

Only because Rashid and Demonreach/Alfred have issues, this is why he arrived on the dock. So it isn't necessarily significant that Peabody ended up where he did and Rashid where he did.
However this is getting off topic. Mab doesn't trust Noname, after the attack on Arctis Tor she sent him into the mortal world as a lawyer. One of his main clients is Marcone, who also now holds Namshiel's coin.. Namshiel is suspected as being the one who tossed Hell Fire around when Arctis Tor was attacked. In Small Favor Mab said that she and Uriel had a common enemy. I believe Mab was very aware about who took Namshiel's coin. Mab is playing the long game.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Mab will let certain people know certain of her secrets to see what they do with them. Like everything with Mab it’s a test. If Maeve was told about a way to Demonreach and then forbidden to use it, that’s a test that Maeve failed, the test positive for Nemfection. You get rid of anyone else who knows like Nameless, forcing Maeve into the position to do the job.
This makes me wonder, Mab’s most notorious secret was supposedly ferreted out by Bob that Immortals can die on Halloween. Did she allow him to have this information just to see what he would do with it? In the long-term it rid her of a Nemfected Winter Lady who hadn’t even been born. Did she set Bob up as a weapon against other immortals? It strikes me tha Mab was very lax in relation to Bob.

I doubt it is a secret, if it is, it is an open one.

Wasn't that part mentioned previously?
Snark Knight:
--- Quote from: Conspiracy Theorist on July 08, 2022, 04:48:11 PM ---I think the intent in Turncoat was for Peabody to become Warden (he is an expert on summoning and binding, his book on Erl indicates that) but to do that he needed the current absentee Warden Dead, and if that was Fortier it explains why Peabody aimed the Captain at him for an otherwise motiveless killing. Unfortunately Harry by pure fluke beat him to it.

Perhaps. It would certainly be a stronger motive to take him out than what TC made clear.
But it depends on the WOJ that the rest of the Senior Council would turn on any of their fellow SC members who jump to a preemptive strike on any of their own fellow members who grabbed such personal power (and they only spared Harry because they realized he did it out of ignorance) being a strategic misdirect.
It's an odd thing to lie about, considering there's no obvious reason LaFortier being that previous Warden would be too spoilery to answer, let alone so spoilery to require misdirection. Especially when Jim volunteered Kemmler being the next-to-previous Warden quite near that comment, and that seems like a much bigger lore point than if the previous one was indeed LaFortier.
