Karen understood when Harry told her that it was not to protect her but himself and she followed Harry's unspoken advise. References to earlier cases where Harry kept secrets to protect other people are not to the point.
That is why Murphy had to solve everything on her own and that is why comments about her not taking advise are unfair. She had taken Harry's advise.She brought the sword to have the option available which is not wrong. She either could find a situation where she could use it or could give it to someone if the occasion demanded it. The sword had to be there she just did not know what to do with it.
The sword had to be there. Her emotions colored how she used it but she had no real choice at that moment. We have discussed this endlessly but the alternative was a dead Harry or Waldo, she saved a life and the sword was fixable.
She was there because Harry asked her. Harry is not going to ask her for peace talks after what happened in Skin Game so the whole question is moot.

Yeah, considering the timeline it is likely that we won't see Karrin Murphy in book 16 at all. At most it will be a token appearance like in book 7. She is likely to be still recuperating in the hospital or at home. When PT went down Harry won't tell her at all, not while Murphy is injured. Doing so is the same as Harry killing Murphy with his own hands. Harry is not that stupid.
BTW: about the "Murphy's funeral" thing. Does JB mentioned Murphy's funeral or Karrin's Funeral?
If it is Murphy's funeral, it is entirely possible it is the deaths of members of the Murphy clan. Thousands died in PT and since a lot of the Murphies serve as law enforcements. Well, it is entirely possible that some of them had fallen. This could explain why Karrin is not there during Christmas . She is with her own clan.

Yeah, Murphy might not get a whole lot of page time. I remember doing a little research for a torn ACL, but I don't remember how severe it was in her case. So she'd be pre-occupied with her physical therapy but I bet she could afford a good surgery for it. She could be an out-patient. Though, I bet she'd still want Harry to keep her in the loop even if she can't do anything active.
Nope, it was Murphy's funeral. Pretty sure there was a mwahahaha in there too, lol.
That's a good catch, a definite possibility to me.

So let me get this straight, Winter gave the wounded and killed a billion or so so Molly could give Harry that card. OK.

Charity loves Harry. But she doesn't love Harry that much. And she already has his a 200 pound "Mouse". :)

Probably just Molly. She has loads of money now.

No, The Winter Lady gave the wounded and killed a Billion as a Gift to Her Knight. The card is just a piece of paper she showed him representing the actual gift.
