The White Council is kind of a Joke.

--- Quote from: Snark Knight on May 14, 2023, 03:03:15 AM ---Given Harry seems to have essentially PTSD from his brush with the skinwalker, I'm not sure how a future version of Harry would end up loaning him out as cheap muscle to anybody. If there came a need to release something, I almost think he'd pick something objectively a bit worse instead, just because of his subjective anything-but-Naagloshii bias.
Mirror universe dark Harry probably wouldn't have the same qualms, though.

where'd that bias come from? Not from when he'd never let him out before? Timeloops are particularly funny in the DF, with conservation of history an all.

If he hadn’t visited for decades this would have made it more difficult for Peabody to identify the Warden, especially if Cowl is Nameless

And you lost me...
A bunch of perfectly good Theorizing and then you go and cram in a pet theory...
How does Cowl being Nameless or not being Nameless affect Peabody's ability to identify the Warden who doesn't visit for decades?
Nameless was introduced too late and in a side story, he can't be Cowl.

--- End quote ---
The are no empty hallows, not because Demonreach is full, but because Demonreach grows new ones as needed, and in the unlikely event of a hallow not being needed... it clears them out.
We see Demonreach withdraw the water from trees to get rid of the creatures in the trees, we see a full prison and Harry asks if Demonreach can hold something as big as Ethniu and Alfred says size isn't an issue, so Harry tells him to prepare a cell. Hallows are created at need and if needed destroyed at need. There are NEVER empty hallows. the Hallow Harry was in was Harry's Hallow. it was created for Harry and not seen later during his recovery because it no longer existed because it was no longer needed.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Because Nameless ensconced himself in Winter, if the Warden has access to a way through Winter to Demonreach and visited regularly Nameless was in the perfect position to identify the Warden and pass that information to Peabody. Because of the absentee warden Peabody had to identify the Warden through less direct means i.e. mind control inks and slips made by the Senior Council under their influence which could take decades.
This presumes that Mab’s Ice Garden in Arctis Tor where those who have displease her are placed in ice crystals for long periods. Merlin and Mab were of course a ‘thing’ so giving Mab the back door key to Demonreach makes sense. If so Harry can easily get from the Winters Knights quarters to the Ice Garden both in Arctis Tor and to Demonreach. If only Harry had access to a fortress staffed by warriors of Winter in the Mortal World he would then be able to forge a safe connection to Demonreach and avoid the tedious but dangerous journeys by boat.
Being stuck in Winter without identifying the Warden must have chapped Nameless ass.

except the hallow Harry laid in was still empty while he lived on the island. Theorizing is great. Don't tell me mines invalid based on one yours tho. DR didn't withdraw the water of his own cognizants, he understood the thought that went through Harry's head.

Winter is a BIG place... I believe winter is bigger than the surface of the Earth...
IF the Warden has access to a way through Winter, AND the Warden uses it... Nameless would be less likely to catch him then Peabody who at least was at the same starting point...
