But what did the dance itself accomplish magically?

Reinforcement of power, control, knowledge and dominance over Harry. Mab knows his deepest darkest secrets, even that he can't dance to anything but ballroom.

Good point, btw.   We have not really seen any dance magic in the series.

In the beginning of CD Harry's birthday party had plenty of magical fae dancing. And Mab flexed her knowledge of Harry by waltzing with him. (Was it a waltz?) But more would always be better as long as it's not in the form of a "dance off".

Sure, but I'm thinking Harry won't want to make Blackstaff 2.0, he'll want to make Whitestaff 1.0.   

Symbolically it fits, since we then have an artifact that lets nominally "evil" creatures do overall good without losing "evil" aspect.

Do you really think Momma Freeze would accept a soulstaff instead of a bl....oh hey... Could you imagine what Mother Winter could do with just a little bit of soul? (other than dance)

I think that's /exactly/ what he's going to do.  Ley line?  Probably not.   Soulfire?  Possibly.

IMO the lay line seems more like the current blackstaff. Remember in Changes when it was seeping into EB's veins when he was using it?

My thoughts on LC....

Have you ever poured your heart and soul into something for an extended period of time and when you finally got to the endgame result you realized it wasn't as practical as you'd hoped or not what you really wanted? IMO LC was Harry's impractical obsession. He learned a bunch of stuff and now he's past it.

Odin/Santa Claus' staff was pretty snazzy and it could teleport whole groups of people to wherever he wanted. Mother Winter was having problems "getting around". Why does it have to be the Blackstaff?

Random alternate thought...
Could it be possible for Harry to create a second staff for Mother Winter using the branch from the oldest tree on Demonreach and infusing it with a lay line?

Hey Fred, the ladies of reddit (not me) suggest you bring them a pic of you in tights (provided your wife approves).

I believe this can be fixed by using noscript. I could be mistaken, but every page load seems to be calling out to google+. Getting rid of that call might help.

This is a SMF 2.0 website. I would guess probably not. You may be able to find some sort of plugin on the website. I have no idea.

I  choose to believe that any supernatural being that implies something rather than stating it outright is covering for not directly stating it.

The more obvious the implication, the more I believe this.  Because you can't go around sticking "legend has it" before every time you might possibly want an ambiguity.

So on Wikipedia, Sigrun (Gard) fell in love with Helgi, but her father has promised her to the son of king Granmarr. And then....it gets all Shakespearean and everybody dies. But thanks to Odin they're all reborn and stuff.

But, according to Gard, we shouldn't believe everything we read.

Five lines? It's been this way for...um...a year and a half?

I'm breaking all sorts of rules then. I shall correct myself.

I really should pay attention to these things.

Edit: If I were a preacher this would be practicing, yes?

Yes, you'll stop getting annoying pop ups and a good chunk of the annoying sidebar adds or website hover adds will go away. Win/win yes?
