The ruby has been vastly underutilized.

Man, I'd completely forgotten about the ruby. Underutilized, indeed.

You know, it would be good if he actually DID get kicked out of the White Council for a while and made them all look stupid by bouncing around the Ways for a while staying ahead of them while saving the world that they're not smart enough to save. Then he can be invited back and give 'em all the finger. hehe

As bad as her injuries were, engaging in activity like that should have been agonizing, particularly as she was wincing in pain from beginning to fool around with Harry.

Getting taken by Freydia on the boat makes perfect sense given the speed and strength advantages the Valkyrie has along with who knows how many years of fighting experience. Murphy just planned ahead and, even though she'd have died, she'd have prevented Gard from aiding her employer, which would count as a loss for her and so not an acceptable outcome.

  Got ya, just read that part, missed on the first skim through..  Not only very painful, but if her limbs had been in a cast all those weeks, muscles do not respond all that great, it takes a few days, been there done that. 

No, the Murphy of old wouldn't have been taken on the boat like that, she would have been looking for it.

He does not have it anymore. Dying can be inconvenient in that way.

The ruby? He still had it in Cold Days.

--- Quote ---It was a simple silver pentacle, a battered five-pointed star bound within a circle, on a simple silver chain. The pentacle’s center was filled with a small red stone, cut to size. I’d once fastened the gem into place with hot glue. Apparently Mab had sent it to a genuine jeweler to attach it with something more solid. I touched the stone gingerly, and could instantly sense the energy within it, the psychic journal of my late mother’s travels.

I missed that one. I only knew he never really used it after Changes
