Will Harry Have to Come Clean?

[Conspiracy Theorist]

I bet it is still Lea’s Murder Garden.

I bet it is still Lea’s Murder Garden.

Which is still a pretty bad place to be. He didn't exactly fare very well against the murder centipedes last time he went there.

It's telling that no one got through to the basement from the Never Never. Lea said something about a stack of bones of those who tried.  It's Lea's garden and it has guards designed to keep intruders out and Harry at home.  They almost ate Harry the one time he tried the door.  It could be the reason why Marcone kept the basement when he built the castle.

Well ninjad twice while typing.

That was my thought, Lea was an ally of the BFS, besides it would have been very convenient for body disposal.

[Arjan]

Which Gard?

That Valkyrie Marcone hired from Monoc. We have to assume that Marcones defenses in the nevernever around his base are far better than those of the white court.

[Conspiracy Theorist]

There is Sigurd and Freydis Gard

[Arjan]

There is Sigurd and Freydis Gard

But only one of them is working for Marcone

[Conspiracy Theorist]

It’s Marcone, both are probably working for him.

[Mira]

It’s Marcone, both are probably working for him.

But their main boss is still Vadderung, they are his people hired out or loaned out..

[Arjan]

It’s Marcone, both are probably working for him.

It is vadderung. No

I'm not sure she still is, though. I think that was just because her obligations to Harry passed on to Molly. Once Molly became Winter Lady I'm not sure whether Lea is still involved.

But the garden could totally still be there, I'm not sure Lea could switch it over to Demonreach or the Svartalf embassy.

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Lea is still an ally....of Harry’s, want to bet she is behind the scenes in manipulating Harry get the BFS building?

[Bad Alias]

  My point though, and perhaps I wasn't clear, Harry and Cowl were both opening gates to the Nevernever in the Depths.  If no one knew he was coming, someone could easily have opened a gate to get Thomas where he needed to be.

My point was that Whites and Svartalves are different. Svatalves probably have defenses in place for that. Though Eb just walking up to Harry's apartment makes me think that maybe they aren't as impressive as we've been led to believe.

 However you are not taking into account that Eb is not only a powerful wizard, but the Blackstaff, which means he may have a few tricks up his sleeve to by-pass any security if he sets his mind to it.  Thomas simply doesn't.

I think it's some of both. From everything we've seen and heard, the Svartalves are not to be messed with lightly.

But Eb is good.

I don't think the Svartalves are really major powers; Etri seems pretty high up among them, and yet everybody considers the assassination attempt in PT a plausible threat. I don't think that would be true for any of the really powerful Fae.

Sure, Etri chops up a decently powerful (non-minion) Fomor in "Bombshells". But that's a long way from blasting apart two Lords of Outer Night with one spell like Lea does. I doubt he's even comparable to Molly or the Eldest Gruff.

I think the Svartalves are mostly dangerous because of their magic-technology and preparations. So nobody really wants to attack them, even the major powers, but they're not a major power themselves.
