Children of the sun
« on: May 22, 2025, 02:19:54 PM »
It has been a long thinking theory of mine that it's really SON not sun. That it's actually the church guarding a portal or something.
1. Christian could turn into Christ son hence children of the sun.
2. Lot of holy artifacts out there but none are being used outside of the swords.
3. Hades has some there has to be more.

I'm slightly confused. Do you mean Children of the Sun from the Alera Codex? If so, are you trying to connect the Alera Codex back to earth through Christianity and then to the Dresden Files through the artifacts we have seen?

Yeah that's my theory. What if Codex Alera is part of the Dresden verse.

Well, we know that the world of Codex Alera is a cosmic dumping ground for people who get lost in time/space (like the world in Thor 3). Alera was founded by one of the lost Roman Legions that supposedly wandered through something like a portal and ended up on Alera. It is possible that this Roman Legion did not come from our world, but instead came from the Dresdenverse. Thus it may have had a wizard or two along for the ride or other supernatural creatures.

IIRC there's some strong hints (maybe even a WoJ?) that there's an Alera / CinderSpires link, but less so for something as close to our "Modern World" as the Dresden'verse is.

But of course nothing's impossible, and WoJ says the Nevernever is virtually-limitless, and explicitly includes all sorts of fiction & fantasy places, e.g. Spiderman lives somewhere in the Nevernever, and Frodo in some NeveneverShire, &c.

I think I saw a WAG once that the author did not confirm that the Warriorborn of Cinder Spires are the end results of generations of mating between Canin and humans.
