This thread is exactly what it says on the tin: a thread for compiling all the information (quotes and the like) and theories on the phrases/titles of the BAT. The stuff in the OP is going to be very disorganized at first. Mostly I just want to get started on the thread and organize later. Main sources are this (http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,35397.60.html) thread and this (http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,37747.msg1847383.html#msg1847383) thread.
Info/theories on:
Stars and Stones:
Add to that, Mab says "The stars will rain from the sky before Mab fulfills not her word." This suggests to me that when "Empty Night" happens, Mab will fail her words or duty.
Hell's Bells:
Empty Night:
In the Mother Summer/Winter (MS/MW) cabin scene in CD, MS told MW that the possible bright futures must be better than a future of "Empty Night" even to her.
To me this strongly implies that the fruition of Nemesis's goals would be "Empty Night"
Here is another idea. If the Outsiders are from a reality outside of our own, their imposition of their own reality upon ours would be the ultimate result of an Outsider sucessful invasion.
These 2 ideas together imply to me that "Empty Night" is what the Outsider Home reality is like.
Two points that tie directly to this line of thoughts.
1.The main wampire expletive is "Empty Night" so they seem to have some kind of ties to this concept.
2.We know the Final Dresden Files book will be called "Empty Night"
In Cold Days Harry also described the sky around the Outer Gates and the ongoing siege as being a starless, black sky. This would fit the "Empty Night" reference and definitely suggest the Outsiders involvement.
Combination:
Agreed. And Ill toss a third tie it to the list: When Thomas quotes the bible verse regarding the weakness of the Wampires, he says:
"Love is patient. Love is kind. Love always forgives, trusts, supports, and endures. Love never fails. When every star in the heavens grows cold, and when silence lies once more on the face of the deep, three things will endure: faith, hope, and love."
"And the greatest of these is love," I finished. "That's from the Bible."
"First Corinthians, chapter thirteen," Thomas confirmed.
I looked around and confirmed (as much as I can) that those bits are not actually in any of the common translations of the Bible, so I think they are more foreshadowing. Which would make the Faith/Hope/Love bit a fairly strong indication of the significance of the Swords, come BAT time)
Every star in the heavens growing cold probably has a connection to Stars and Stones while silence lying on the face of the deep would seem to have a connection to Hells Bells (see wizard nelsons posts)
Hells Bells, or at least the principle behind it, was seen briefly in Smf. The bells used to help power the greater circle against the Archive. Thinking that whole circle worked on similar principles and gross denial of freedom Powering Hells Bigger Bells, possibly they were actually tapping into it with the circle. So Hells Bells are used to confine. Then we have Thomas's empty night 'corinthians' quote about silence falling on the deeps, so the Bells are bad when they stop? Noteworthy to mention is EG calls Lucifer the darkest Shadow, the deeps are called shadowrealm, (shadow something anyway) and the lord of slowest terror hunter of the shadows. Now I can't remember if this bit is actually in the DV or if I'm confused because its a reacurring element in various other mythos, but iirc shadowrealm and dreamland are very close if not one within the other. (dream>shadow)
1) I'm not ready to connect the one mention of bells in the containment spell for Ivy to Hell's Bells. It's an interesting concept though. Specifically, I think the danger in Hell's Bells falling silent is that they herald the end.; they may be a sign of the/an apocalypse. I'm not 100% that they're tied to Christian hell, however. Either the BAT is the apocalypse for ALL religions, it's a crossover event of multiple apocalypses (apocalypsi?), or its the apocalypse for one but not the others.
The bells falling silent, and leading to empty night, may not mean that there are bells currently ringing and holding something or someone prisoner.
2) There are two deeps. The first is the Raith cave nicknamed the Deeps. The second is probably poetic verse for reality, and specifically the outer reaches or space.
3) The ghoul in the WN flashback referred to the place where the ghouls come from as the "Realm of Shadows". Lash confirms at the time that it's a region of the Nevernever. We don't know for sure where it is, but my guess is the RoS is the place where Cowl launches his attacks from, which would be the same place that Peabody escaped to. The connection between the two is the attack by the ghouls in WN, where they all came through, which appeared to be (but may not have been) the same place Cowl always comes from. The gate in the Raith Deeps that the ghouls came from was the same as was used in the caves in New Mexico, which were described as reaching the RoS. The kink in that theory is that Harry says that Cowl appears in his own gate, which may or may not have been from the same place that the ghouls came from. Still, my money is that Cowl's hide-out is the RoS.
4) I don't know of a connection between the RoS and the dream pockets that wizards and others can create. I think they're seperate.
5) Harry gets Mouse in BR. We've never found out who kidnapped the pups.
6) Harry mentions in TC that he "still had nightmares", specifically about Morgan. And he mentions in Changes that he had nightmares of Sells, up until he upgraded. It seems to imply to me that he still gets nightmares, but doesn't dwell on them in the books as much.
7) My interpretion of "the demon" in the Malcolm dream was that it was a representation of Lasciel's shadow, Lash. Malcolm specifically says "You know what it is. You know what it wants." I don't think he would have been referring to Nemesis, which Harry wouldn't know about at the time. Instead, I think its an illusion to the thing haunting him at the time, which is Lash. She first appeared to him while dreaming/unconscious. It makes sense that in a safe dream, she'd still be there, just not as prettily disguised.
Edit:
Also, I've been contemplating "Stars & Stones". Empty Night, based on the hints we've seen, appears to refer to a period of darkness, where the stars won't be visible in the sky. Part of me wonders about whether it will be a blanket of darkness around Earth, or if Earth gets pulled into the NN on some level, making the stars disappear. Hell's Bell's, as I mentioned, I take to be a heralding to the Apocalypse. I'm not sure if it's a specific threat in itself, so much as a sign.
S&S has two obvious connotations to me.
The first is the use of stones (like Stonehenge) to plot time using the heavens (the stars). Typically done during the day using the sun, there are also Viking lodestones used to navigate at night under the stars.
The second is the idea that, on a much more galactic scale, all of reality is "stars and stones". The stars are, duh, stars. And all of the planets and meteors and such are nothing more than stones drifting through space.
It makes me wonder if the imagery is supposed to be local (stones on earth) or galactic (earth is stone).
Clarification on what’s behind the titles for the final trilogy.
Hell’s Bells and Stars & Stones are Harry and Eb terms; Empty Night is used by Thomas. They are curses for a reason.
So a lil background on Hells Bells from wiki-answers.
what is the origin of the idiom hell's bells?
-If you are unfortunate enough to get to, Hell, when you arrive there is a ceremony where new arrivals are required to ring bells, like church bells, to let all in Hell know you have arrived. In other words, Hell's bells, are what are rung to alert those that have been there a while, "You have company."
I know it contradicts my earlier theory but maybe Hells Bells do go off when we have outsider visitors?
On Stars and Stones, Something that struck me literally ten min ago as I reread changes. When Harry goes to the stone table there is very specifically 5 cold pure stars described as upon Lady nights throat(Hint hint!). I wonder if the phrase isn't connected to these stars and this stone table? conjecture, SNS will deal with how the table was made, how it works and why it can give power to a wellspring. possibly I'll have more later, I'm supposed to be asleep :o
Miscellaneous:
Space is often referred to as DEEP space. And in Genesis 1:2, "...Darkness was upon the face of the deep."
2) The cave on the Raith's property is nicknamed "The Deeps". Space, as peregrine mentioned, is referred to as deep space when it's far out. Similar to how Outside is far away. And there's the biblical Deep that peregrine mentioned, which signified existence.
3) Agreed, but we can't be sure. The portal Cowl usually opens mentions a dank smell. The one he opened for himself in the Deeps had a red glow. The one that the ghouls came through had the dank, mildewy smell normally associated with Cowl's gates, but was a dark oval, not a red glowing oval.
4) I was confused by your comment, but I think you mean the Eebs mentioned it. I read it as Eb. And Esmerelda mentions the Land of Dreams, which is where Mouse's line probably originated. I don't think there's been any indication in the DV that the Ros and the LoD are anywhere near each other. They may be, but we haven't had any indication yet.
5) I'm sure we'll find out more when Harry kills Mavra in the past.
6) Not that I can recall either. Bu then again, he had sessions with Lash up until WN if I recall. Those weren't 'invasive', but the only invasive dream I recall him having is the Nightmare in GP. What other ones were there that were truly invasive, before Mouse? Mouse was around for DB when Harry's dad showed up. And the one you mentioned in DM didn't really seem to be a sending/invading dream; it seemed like a nightmare, and someone stepped in to help him rest. It could have been his ghost mother, or possibly Lea or Mab.
7) That's why I think he was referring to Lash. Why refer to two different threats, one that Harry's unaware of and has never knowingly encountered, and then another that's prevalent on his thoughts and concerns in that book?
2 Oh I was using DF references, which seems to go through a bit of length in BR to connect the corinthian paraphrase with the Raith deeps and the Raith deeps with the ROS. Deep space is actually a relatively newer concept of 4-500 yrs at the most. 3 Wasn't that because he used the spell on Harry's gate he glowed? I always assumed the light was a conjuration, even Cowl see's by light. 4 Yea I was thinking there was a small reference somewhere to it. Maybe I'm assuming because its that way in manga? Its part of the oriental beliefs somewhere. 5 LMAO? 6 Just had the thought, Harry got mouse soon after the strega started bringing Hwwbh back across the threshold. coincidence? 7 But Malcolm specifically says a fallen can't protect you. You got to pay attention to Harry's grammer (like mine when I say Merlin or The Merlin ;) ) Dream Harry isn't split in this dream, he's subconscious Harry too. SubHarry knows The demon stalks him.
The unmodified version of the modified bible quote Thomas recites is actually:
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
(King James version)
The "Deeps" in this quote refers to the Great Deep of the primordial waters of creation in the Bible. This Deep is also known as Tehom and is where the waters of the biblical flood had their origin. I have a theory that Tehom is actually all of the Outsiders here (http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,38033.0.html).
I didn't include a few of the theories/posts from the threads because I didn't personally find them convincing enough. Feel free to debate with me if you want their inclusion.
-
Would you like me to curate in link embeaded quote code for the first few quotes?
-
one thought upon Hell's bells.. silence upon the face of the deep is also a reference to Tehom, the ancient Hebrew dragon goddess, and the original Hell's Belle
there is a woj that the current WG and Lucifer are not the original, having the original dragon goddess of hell.. all 300' feet and five fire breathing heads of her.. show up always seemed very Jim to me, somehow.

id recommend hitting your library and checking out comparative religions.. the connection between Tehom and the Sumerian/Babylonian Tiamat is very highly debated; the archaeology papers ive read tend to consider it very plausible while more religious authors- especially some conservative Christians- hate it.
on the nets, some good write ups ive found include:

as a non believer I can see the thematic/ linguistic/ artistic connections and understand that Abrahamic religions did not evolve in a vacuum (note the flood myth, which has similar connections) but at the same time I understand why some believers might have issues with the idea.
either way, it's common enough I think it's likely Jim may have run into it, and do you really see him turning down the chance to use the original Godzilla?

Why would Anzu be the original godzilla? I thought that he a bodyguard who stole a clay tablet from Anu. And I was under the impression that he was an eagle that had a lion's head. Sorry my sumerian mythology is pretty rusty.

I actually have a theory-I don't know if its been brought up before- that Tehom is the Outsiders. I believe-correct me if I'm wrong- that Tehom was the primordial darkness before God said "let their be light". It resented the light so the "spirit of God" quelled the darkness/chaos and in the DV cast it out.
Tehom being the Outsiders also explains how the Outsiders can be a hivemind and also explains HWWB's statement in Ghost Story:
"This isn't your world," I whispered.
"Not now," He Who Walks Behind murmured, its smile widening. "But it will be ours again in just a little time."
The Outsiders being associated with "voids" and "coldness" also meshes nicely with the primioridal darkness being them.
This theory also meshes nicely with mithrandirthewhite's theory that the Firmament = Outer Gates ( http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,36172.msg1721369.html#msg1721369). In this theory the "flood" is actually the Outsiders/Tehom. The links you posted also say that Tehom fundamentally means “flood.”
It also explains why the Outsiders would want "Empty Night". They resent the creation of "light' (this may mean actuall light and/or mortals. I suspect the sky being starless at the Outer Gates means it is both symbolic and literal). The "stars" could also represent being with souls/Free Will. Their are a ton of us surrounded by soulless beings and objects just like their are a ton of stars surrounded by darkness.
I don't think that Tehom is a dragon goddess in the DV because Dragons aren't really "alien" enough to be Outsiders. Plus we've already seen Dragons before.
Thoughts?
-
quite plausible ;)
I often associate outsiders with lovecraft, but no law says Jim can't combine things. he has before :)
empty night in lovecraft is a reference to when the elder gods would return, I believe.
(its hard to be certain about lovecraft, there is no clear canon to go by)
Why would Anzu be the original godzilla? I thought that he a bodyguard who stole a clay tablet from Anu. And I was under the impression that he was an eagle that had a lion's head. Sorry my sumerian mythology is pretty rusty.
that's tiamat, from the creation myth Enuma Elish, at least according to the citations- the dragon goddess of chaos, the darkness upon the face of the deep.

The Tehom=Outsiders theory doesn't really fit here that much (except for the bit about Empty Night). I think I'll create a new thread.
In the meantime new theories, quotes, and thoughts on how to organize the OP are welcome.

The WoJ in my head goes a little differently. It states (paraphrasing) "who is to say they [WG and Lucifer] are not the originals? We wouldn't know." He appeared to be speculating; not necessarily a statement of DV fact.

Here you go:
Dudesan: Related to #1- In the short story Backup, you introduced the oblivion war and the Venatori, who undermine the supernatural beings by making humanity forget about them[2] . They once hoped to try that trick against the fairies, but the narrator of that story remarked that it was judged to be unfeasible. What are the limits of this strategy? Is memory-erasing magic useful to it (or does it have to be "legitimate" forgetting?), and if so, would some enormous blanket memory-erasing ritual similar in principle to the heart-ripping spell at the climax of Changes[3] be a superweapon in this fight? Could this theoretically be attempted against Lucifer or even The Almighty?
Jim: 6) It's got to be genuine forgetfulness. And for all we know, there's already been a Lucifer and an Almighty that's been forgotten. I mean, how would we know, eh? Though I think you could never really truly banish everything. As long as there's an irrational thought or someone wondering, "Who made this place?" Thank God, so to speak. A world of pure rationality would be desperately dull. And I'd probably have to write English papers.

yea youre right, sorry I didn't state it clearly

Thoughts on the new organization in the OP? I'm thinking of snipping and pasting the quotes so that the need for a "Combination" section would be obviated. Some of the quotes only have a little bit that's relevant to this thread too. I dunno if the people who made the quotes would be okay with it though...?
-
Thanks count, btw, could you add where that WoJ came from? I usually include either a link or the year/event
Also, when making a quote you can change the part in the first brackets to say {quote=quote source here}
like this
Edit: I'm going to have to knuckle down and spend a weekend updating the WoJ compilation and reviewing stuffs. I'll be time consuming though.

It's already in the WoJ section :D. Specifically the AMA Reddit Q&A (http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,34849.0.html)
You mean to tell me you haven't memorized every WoJ on this website? :o.

Very interesting stuff. Added.
-
I was talking about my need to refresh the compilation, which is my attempt to collate all the relevant WoJ's by subject. There is a section for the BAT I believe.
I haven't really updated it since the GS release though, and I didn't even get everything from the interviews around that time either. I wouldn't be supprised if there is over 40 hours worth of work for me to put in to get everything up to date. Transcriptions help with that effort a /lot/ though.
-
Man I really need to organize the OP. So much woooorrrrk thoouuugh :(. My laziness is kicking my butt.
Nothing much to add. Just hoping to incite some more conversation before the inevitable thread lock (and move to the Recourses section?).
-
I have another theory about Empty night: could it be that Harry and company will go beyond the Gate? After all, Empty night is Thomas expression. And we know he's working to keep the knowledge of the Gate and the Outsiders unknown. So he could be the guide to stop the bad guys at the source, even going to the extreme action of trying to lock them inside again.
-
I just had a thought, Hell's Bells makes us believe that the denarians will be involved.
What with it being the apocalypse, I am trhinking that nearly all the fallen will be active, even those previously in the keeping of the church. THe only place that is secure enough to permanently keep the coins sealed away is the well of demonreach, and that makes me believe at some point it too will be breached, as it is too secure, it has to be breached. The full order of 30 fallen knights would be a force of terrible power, but it would give harry a chance to send most of the order into the well. I wonder what it would mean if all the coins were sealed away, for the knights of the cross. I just noticed something, after shiro died, about 10 of the nickel heads were in the hands of the church , one third of the order, and one sword was put on the side lines. In small favor, when michael went down, another ten or so coins were dehosted, and potentially still out of play.
Stars and stones, well we have hints applenty on the reference. Biggest bet is the star bit is a reference to harry status as a star born. The stone is a bit tricky, there is the stone table, the centre of faerie power. There is the crystal that makes up the outer gates, the crystal eye of the gatekeeper, and the crystal cells of demonreach.
Empty Night, we all assume is the show down between harry and the forces of the outside. There are however references to links between the WCV and empty knight. i had a theory the vampire courts are the result of humans tainted with the touch of beyond the outer gates.
I believe for the trilogy, the sword will have knights, and they will be epic.

Probably related to the little bell my grandmother had. When it sounded it always meant 'Dinner Ready!'
-
Interesting theory, Kazimmoinuddin. Enough to say that I'll think more about this.
-
I am guessing that due to the apocalyptic batlles, the whole supernatural world will be shaken up.
The white council will get losses, and senior council members will die, possibly all seven.
The fae will survive, but still lots will die in both courts andthe non aligned. I do see the fomor getting pumled by the courts.
The BCV are going to get alot of damage, as we know necroamncy can be used against them, I see the leadership, the elders, nobility and magic users being dealt with. SO less threat, more vermin.
THe wcv will simply get depleted.
THe nickleheads will most definitly get killed, with the coin collection being held in the well. At best only a few will get away.
The dragons will make an appearence,, what is an epic battle between the forces of light and darkness, without dragons joining in.
THe knights, will either retire, or get their swords remade. If the fallen are all dealt with, they would a new purpose to defend the innocent. Imagine the swords power if reforged with soul fire.
-
THe knights, will either retire, or get their swords remade.
I agree that one sword will probably break at one tme and be repaired. With soul fire? That would be cool indeed! But maybe they already are made with it, since they are link to God and angels.
The white council will get losses
Don't they always have losses since the begining of the war with the vampires? ;)

In the latest q & a, jim said the navy will be involved in the bat i think.

Am i getting the image of sea monsters, and harry screaming, release the kraken, it was originally a norse beast was it not.

Yeah, the kraken come from Scandinavian stories. I don't know if it goes back to the era of Norse mythology or not.
Who knows what it's doing in "Clash of the Titans"... of course, half the things in that movie are totally bizarre...
-
Mortals get involved in a big way.
Mab gets blindsided somehow and fails to live up to her side of things. That or she makes a Spock choice.
Dragons shooting laser beams in outer space.
The Outsiders get in.
Possibly the moon (Gatekeeper's demesne)
Harry has to directly fight against the White Council. Gatekeeper said it is coming. I think that the WC will be fractured and the youngsters and some of the SC will follow Harry.
Nic and Black Court fight Outsiders.
-
I agree nic will fight the outsiders, but ever since i heard the BCV are vulnerable to necromancy, I believed that that this could will be co opted by necromancers to be used as a weapon, so theyh will defintily fight, but under who command and which side is up for debate.
