Has anyone else considered that the Oblivion War and the last Law of Magic "Do not seek knowledge from beyond the Outer Gates" may be related, meaning that a covert operation is being undertaken by beings that the White Council consider monsters to protect possibly the most important law of magic from being broken (and removing any evidence that it has). I wonder if the Gatekeeper knows (or is, in fact, part of it)
Is "Vader syndrome", as Harry defines it in Dead Beat when the Wardens recruit him to boost morale, already a trope? Because if not, we should create one and give TDF Trope Namer status.
On the White Court/Council and Bram Stoker, it's definitely the White Court that did it, not the Council. I don't have it on me at the moment, but the RPG rule book, written from Harry and Billy's perspective, marks it as the White Court that did it. I remember, because I made sure to double check it last time I changed it on another page.

I can understand why some people might be confused, especially considering that the Council openly published all those books about dark rituals to deflate the power that could be harnessed from them.

Why was karmic death removed? Even if Harry was partially responsible the nature of their demise was nothing short of karmic justice. The Red King gets annihalated by the life force of all his victims, sells gets killed by the demon he had enslaved and bianca is killed by the souls of everyone of the people she murdered over the years. If that isn't karmic retribution then what is?

Harry wasn't "partially responsible", he was directly killing them. Karmic Death is when the death is separate from the hero's actions.
Also, I'm begging you, for the love of God, if you're going to list major character deaths at the end of the latest book in the series, put them in goddamn spoiler tags.
Sorry if I sound mad, but you keep doing that, even though I know I've sent you at least one or two PM's on the subject. Some people haven't read the books, so DO NOT put the frigging ending of the latest book on the main page without a spoiler. Got it?
For the sake of spoilers, should we only spoil anything from Skin Game and beyond and un-spoil all content up to sSkin Game?
