I only have the paper hardcopy books, I think I'd need searchable e-books to find all the instances of supernaturals & thresholds & the various expositions & tidbits from Harry & Bob (and with the shorts, Molly & Thomas (and maybe others?)) ...

No, no, I mean thanks for what you already did to answer me.

--- Quote from: morriswalters on September 22, 2022, 12:29:18 PM ---I do. But you don't need it. It's used in The Law. Mab gives old "what his name" a place to live in Arctis Tor before she sends him to work for Marcone. He is apparently a demigod.
--- End quote ---
Not guest right, he swore fealty to Mab and therefore Winter Law, a different bundle of rights and obligations, Nameless was excluded from Arctis Tor following the attack in Proven Guilty, suggesting he was the inside man, but is still bound by his fealty to Mab and Winter Law, no access, all obligation. Doubtless he chafes under Winter Law but even as a Demi-god he isn’t anywhere near Mab’s weight class. If only there was some ritual which would allow him to boost his power lever and break free of Mab, or better yet reverse the pecking order.
It strikes me that Harry with his Knights of the Bean may have inadvertently recruited a bunch of mortals to Winter and to whom Winter Law may apply. That could be a future problem for Harry and fit in with the Liege Lord comment in the interview. A knight could traditionally, create a new Knight, and being part of his banner could reinforce this.

--- Quote from: Dina on September 21, 2022, 03:01:13 AM ---I always wondered about the etiquette in the supernatural world. How would you tell someone like Mab "Yes, you have my permission to enter my domain THIS TIME" without being rude? Or is it assumed that a permission is not absolute, but only for the moment, unless otherwise specified? Because that scene always worried me a little.
--- End quote ---
I'd assume permission to enter is a case by case thing. If i pass security at LaGuardia, I can walk the concourse. If I pass OUTSIDE security, i must ask (be cleared) a second time. Harry can not waltz around the Erlking's domain because he once entered with Susan.

If Cereberus is coming to Chicago then there is a Way reachable to Mouse other than Marcone’s bank, unless of course Cereberus bites through the iron bars of Hades personal vault and waits patiently for the main vault door to open.
--- End quote ---
I'd imagine there are multiple Ways from Hades. The Skin game crew may have taken a direct route, and maybe Cerberus takes a connecting one. the connecting one might be avoided by many for Nasty Things between the gates, but Cerberus might pass unmolested, either due to his power, or the other creature's fear of whose dog it is.

--- End quote ---
Maybe not. Maybe when there is no Warden, Alfred gets to be ACTING Warden. If the Warden must approve squashing certain invaders, Alfred cannot do it without permission. If there is no Warden, he grants HIMSELF permission, and stops Maeve.
