This doesn't really matter, but Merlin didn't "leave". If I remember correctly, when asked if Merlin was still alive, Jim said kinda. I think that supports your theory more

You're over thinking this. If you wrote the story and know the characters, changing them wouldn't be hard. The events of the story do that for you.

OK just so we are clear we should call positions in the Fae Courts "M"antles and positions of authority like The Merlin and Black staff "m"antles just to avoid the confusion we had before

Ha Inception. Future Harry is making it seem Present Harrys subconsious came up with the idea so Present Harry doesn't become suspcious except sometimes it doesn't take like with Tera West.

Lol sorry if that confused you. Power in the form of a mantle is inherited, while power from a title is earned. THE Merlin of the White Council earns his power through training its not given to him from a mantle. Otherwise a regular human could be given the mantle and become super powerful without the training and discipline they would require to control it

I'm not too sure about that. A mantle is something that contains power and if a wizard is strong enough to be considered for the position of Merlin, they wouldn't need that power. I think we are putting to much importance on the existance of mantles. It would be kinda of cheap if every power up Jim gives to his characters was mantle based. If Harry isn't the Merlin, he wouldn't gain the Merlins power through a mantle. It would be more realistic if Harry obtains Merlins journels and learns from those

Yeah the term mantle is generally applied to positions in the faerie courts but if Harry was Merlin, the rest would make sense

I believe she does try too but its hard to fight it. And that shows free will

Mab could have become queen out of nesscity and not free will so that would explain why she would fight it.
PS: I have been on the forum for maybe a month but I still don't know some of the abbreviations so what does WAG mean?

« on: December 31, 2012, 12:24:29 AM »im not sure where free will woudl enter the question. the constructs themselves- Bob, the Archive, the mantle- have none.I think he's saying that there is a system and humans are the users. The system cannot be used by itself but by including mortals into the equation it can. Beings like Mab and Titania bend people to use the system in the way they want to, but ultimately it is up to the will of the user.
the owner/ host of the construct has some, at least until they give up. I think Mab has been fighting the issue since day 1, and will never give up, just because she's Mab.

« on: December 30, 2012, 08:05:47 AM »Does this fit with all that subconscious Harry says though? I could've sworn he says to not trust Tara West in Full Moon. So, unless she plays a role in some future story, that would seem like a very odd seed to plant. I am sure I could nitpick some other conversations that just don't make much sense if it was an astral projecting/time traveling Harry.WellI remember hearing once that Terra's story isn't done yet, so that either means shell come back tod help or hinder Harry. If it was Future Harry, that means that Terra probably hurts Harry in the future

« on: December 29, 2012, 10:18:45 PM »True. However, even if LC were not lost, it would not serve as a focus to go back to the events of Fool Moon - Chicago changes, Harry needed to update LC regularly to keep it from being obsolete. It would only be useful to go back to the time period for LC's last update remaining viable; no earlier, no later.you explained it better
