How did Calot use his Mockra warren to stop Anomander Rake's Kurald Galain during the battle of Pale? If Mockra is the path of the mind, how can it also be physical? It shouldn't have been able to protect Tattersail at all.

If Mockra is the path of the mind, and yet it is shown in text to have physically protected Tattersail from harm, that suggests you should reevaulate your assumptions about what one can do with it.

So you don't believe that's it's a GotMism?

Not personally, no. I think there's more than one way to use a Warren. But I think discussing Warrens (sufficiently) and even GotMisms in the GotM forum is inherently spoilery, so I'll leave it at that.

Wonder if there is any foreshadowing here or just feels that way seeing how he would naturally write such passages without 2nd thought (or maybe just subconscious thought). ????
