Cat Sith, Cu Sith, Cŵn Annwn
« on: July 15, 2018, 07:11:12 PM »
Dresden calls the Malk that was Nemfected "Cat Sith".  What I find funny is Cat Sith is actually from mythology. 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cat_s%C3%ACth

Think this was on purpose or just a coincidence? 

Also there is Cu Sith, or Black Dog in mythology from the same area.....  Sound familiar?  Something like

The Cŵn Annwn are spectral hounds that take part in the wild hunt, sound very much like what Leah wants Harry to become.  The Cu Sith may be the same thing.  Also because the Cŵn Annwn are from Irish Mythology, there may be some evidence to where Leah originated from.
Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

"I love this place. It was a beacon in the dark and I couldn't have made it through some of the most maddening years of my life without some great people here."  Thank you Griff and others who took up the torch.

It was on purpose.

Jim borrowed Cat Sith from mythology.  Cat Sith says so after Harry jokes about "Sith".

LIES!  Damn lies!  It's a cover up!

I seem to remember a throwaway line about Harry having helped teach some paranet members how to run off a Black Dog that was being threatening, so I'd assume Cu Sith do exist.

Probably no relation to Mouse' brother though. Faerie hounds are from an entirely different cosmology than the foo / temple dogs.

I'd be interested in meeting cu sith, sounds like he could be a rival of cat sith, in that deadly frenemies winter court kind of way.

And a couple of them make a brief appearance on Demonreach in Cold Days before Harry reaches the Ladies.
