Born in love, and choice. We know rather little, all told, of the great magics that hem us in, but it has seemed to me that a child of love and desire might do a great deal to act against magics born in fear and death.
I had in mind the Octobori stones, in particular, but possibly also the wards set in 83.
As to Nymphadora, I do not think Samhain will produce any particular unwanted effects, if she has not experienced them to date. I have been endeavouring not to bias her experience (and it is not as if this is her first child, I trust she will inquire if there is something unexpected).
Though it is fortunate that New London is not particularly near any of the octobori sites, really.
