History WMG / DresdenFilesSetting

# '''The Fool''': ''Literature/StormFront''. TheFool represent beginnings and infinity possibilities. The start of the TheHerosJourney.

The Denarians are fallen angels. Mac was long WMGed to be related to the divine. The anathema was long hypothesized to be like the Denarians, only maybe with Lucifer or something. The anatheme of Lea's behaved like a Denarian, but was an Outside that can spread like a disease to many. "Parasite" is a term used to describe Nemesis, but in Ghost Story a Parasite is keeping Harry's body working. Why would Demonreach, and especially Mab, work to save the life of a person they know is compromised, agree to keep it a secret from Harry, and then send him into his first assignment against its fellow conspirators/agents? Unless it is a different parasite, Lash, who is stated would have a presence in Ghost Stories? Low level infection by Outsiders is increased chaos and such, sounds like Harry as he was beginning to succumb to Lashiel.

In the film Iron Man 3, we see how Tony Stark's flippant rudeness and outright cruelty to a then insignificant Aldritch Killian caused Killian to develop an obsession with proving himself and with avenging himself on Tony. Similarly, in Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan, we see how Kirk's disregard of Khan, a character who was just another villain-of-the-week, led to Khan's overwhelming thirst for revenge and an obsession to prove himself superior to the manThe films are about how seemingly insignificant past mistakes can come back to bite you in the ass in a big way, and how supposedly small insignificant nusiances can sometimes grow to become dangerous, life-threatening adversaries. Similarly, both nelson and rosanna were just side characters in the novel of Proven Guilty. Is it possible that one, or both, of these characters will return to seek vengeance on Molly? After all, we see that Molly often makes really poor decisions out of a desire to help people, decisions which no doubt have had far reaching consequences. Perhaps this bad decision will come back to haunt her in a HUGE way, as she is forced to confront the very real damage her poor decisions have made, just as Harry did during Ghost Story. It's not like there aren't anyone interested in recruiting revenge-obsessed young men and women eager for the power. For example, Tessa from the Denarians is ALL about that. Also, Leanansidhe helped Harry get back at Justin DuMorne.

* Mostly Joshed. The Outsiders are not only from beyond Dresden's universe, but from beyond his entire multiverse. Though there are other multiverses in Reality, the Outsiders canonically come from the Outside, as in Outside Reality. Though there might be a "mortal" species that exists(and I use the term loosely) Outside that the Outsiders are based upon...

* Jossed in that ''Mirror Mirror'' will not be the book immediately after ''Peace Talks,'' but ''Literature/BattleGround'' will probably end up being just as much of a clusterf*ck anyway. The status quo has already started to go down the drain as of the end of ''Peace Talks''.

* Jim has said that Ferro is one of the only entities that could actually take down Mab. Now, obviously he's going to have a lot of raw power at his disposal, but what if it's more than that? Jim is a big fan of {{Meaningful Names}}, and there's something in Ferrovax's that counts. ''Ferro'', which looks like Ferrum, the Latin word for "iron". In the Dresdenverse, Dragons are "semi-divine beings who were once given authority over various portions of the mortal universe, and who were responsible for their orderly procession." What if part of Ferrovax's "portfolio," for lack of a better word, is iron? He might be the reason that iron is the Bane to Faeries.

* Surnames that share a name with a city usually belong to families from that city, meaning that Harry Dresden's ancestors most likely came from Dresden, Germany. While he got his magic from his mother's side, he got his affinity for fire in particular from his paternal ancestors having survived a firebombing.

[[WMG: The Swords of the Cross were created to counteract the three White Court houses.]]
* It just fits too well- Amoracchius, the sword of Love, is the bane of the Raiths. Esperacchius, the sword of Hope, chokes the Skavis. Fidellachius, the sword of Faith, isn't a perfect match for the fear-eating Malvora, but there's a reason 'faith and courage' is a phrase that shows up plenty in Christian teachings.

* When the first meet in the woods, Janet, often as part of a dare or in defiance of a ban, goes to pluck flowers and is chastised by Tam Lin for doing so without his permission. When she says she doesn't need his permission, he proceeds to, ah, proceed without permission, as well. Yet, afterwards, Janet sees him as her TrueLove and is ready to do anything to save him. Oh, yes, and in a fair number of versions, he is referred to as ''Thomas''. Perhaps we're applying the song to the wrong brother? Thomas[=/=]Tam Lin rides upon a ''white'' horse, he ravishes the bold young woman and she falls in love with him despite getting her pregnant outside of marriage, and it's through her love of him that he is saved from the supernatural power that had control of him.

* The name of the woman who rescues Tam Lin from the Faerie Queen varies from version to version. Janet is quite common, as is ''Margaret''. The forms in which he turns vary quite a bit, too, with many modern performances using the version in which, after holding tight to a wolf, a burning fire ("she held him tight, and feared him not, til he grew iron cold"), an adder or snake, and/or a bear, they finally turn him into a naked knight, at which point Janet wraps him in her green kirtle (in some "her mantle green"), and it's at that point she knows she's won him.
** Interesting note, saying that a woman "got on a gown of green" or was “as green as any grass" was a euphemism for her being pregnant. A majority of the versions Child collected have Janet/Margaret/Katherine pregnant during the rescue, often giving birth the next morning!
