Thomas and the Svartelves

Will the discovery that Nemesis was behind the attack on Etri, will that remove the charges and enmity against Thomas?

I don't knoe if the Svartelves know about Nemesis, but even so, Thomas acted on his own free will. He was deceived, but he made the choice. So in my opinion, it won't change a lot.

There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be. Someone has stolen a book (Terry Pratchett)

Maybe all that buys Thomas some measure of undertanding and leniency from the Svartelves, but does that help how the Svartelves view Harry?

We have to see, if Thomas has a trial a lot will come out.

I could see the duress being a reason for the svartelves to forego killing Thomas, but he still murdered one of their own and a very high weregild would still be demanded.

Might come out... but we've seen how political some of these supernatural trials can be; remember how much the findings of Morgan's trial were so complete and comprehensive!

Plus, even the Biggest Names in the supernatural world are reluctant to speak the name "Nemesis" so I can't really see it going to trial without all of them making sure their people know to keep some details & Names buried.

This, so who is going to pay it?  The White Court, since Thomas is a vampire, or the White Council because Thomas is the half brother of a then White Council member, Harry and the grandson of Eb who not only is a member of the White Council, but a sitting member of the Senior Council.. Even if Eb claims he didn't know, would they believe him?

The Whamps (specifically, Lara) would pay it.
The White Council would not -- Thomas is a Vamp, it's Vamp-business.
I suspect Eb hates the very idea of Thomas existing, and would just as soon the Svartalven vengeance erased that blot on the McCoy family honor.
