I don't remember anything being mentioned as the sleeper.

Basically Cthulhu but he didn't want to spell it out. Maybe copyright reasons.  The cult Molly and Carlos wiped out in Cold Case were Sleeper devotees who'd hijacked human bodies, trying to wake him up via fae blood sacrifices.

I don't think it was alluded to in Storm Front specifically. Jim's answer seemed more puzzled over whether there even was a singular overall big bad to the series, and settled on the sleeper as the biggest.

Conspiracy Theorist:
There is supposed to be a Kaiju book, perhaps something huge is sleeping under the City.

Conspiracy Theorist:
The Well of the Prison probably exists in a slightly different Space Time given the shifting nature of the tunnels, their apparent infinite size and the manner of its construction, as such it likely isn’t part of the “Mortal World” of that universe and wouldn’t connect to the NeverNever, which would be a great security feature. Of course this will only be the case if Jim finds it convenient. It’s like The Castle, it’s as big inside as it needs to be to fit a particular story. Jim can and does play fast and loose with his rules even when they have been committed to paper, doubly so for WOJ.

You invoke a guest right.  That means you knock on the door before you enter or come in with guns blazing.By the time of Turn Coat Maeve has been outed as nemfected. Assuming that she ever had keys that would pretty much have ended that.  Unless Mab is an idiot. In any case Maeve is as good as a candidate as anyone else for Peabody's partner.  But it doesn't follow that Maeve came from Arctis Tor.

Butcher himself makes the distinction that the prison is separate from the island.  You enter the Well through the door at the bottom of the stairs.

I know, but you have guest rights only that time. It is not an extended invitation for ever. My doubt was about how you specify that? That the host is accepting the guest for once, that next time the guest wants to enter, it would be necessary to ask permission again.

forumghost:
I mean that seems kinda normal, do you assume that because someone let you into their house once, you can therefore come in whenever you like?

Seems to me that would be far more rude.
