It's all Mab's fault! (Battle Ground Spoilers)

This proves Jim's not as terrible as everyone says. Can you imagine Harry's guilt if his use of forzare had caused Rudolph to flinch and shoot Murphy?

I don't know if he'd feel worse, dead is dead.. Even if he failed, at least he knew he tried to stop Rudolph. Either way, it was such a dumb/pointless way for her to die.. And no, shooting the giant with the bazooka wasn't pointless, but being murdered by an insane cop with bad trigger habits is.

I vote for "she no longer cares". By my reckoning, Mab, and all of Winter for that matter, are Lawful Neutral while Summer is Chaotic Neutral.

But is there more to it than it seems? We are discussing if someone else killed Murph by proxy here: https://www.paranetonline.com/index.php/topic,53854.0.html
Regarding the opening statement I would say it is all Mabs fault that humanity is not hit by the apocalypse. She lured Ethniu into attacking the only city that has a nearby super-supermax prison, rallied the people there to defend it (in her own way) and led the most dangerous attach.

I don't think so, Murphy died because she did what she always did, go out to fight above her weight class. In the past this plan has served her well, using her brains to guide her skills. With the help of Mab's spell and her preplanning, it was serving her well again, both the motorcycle and the freedom from pain. However one cannot plan for random nut cases. I think Rudolph had been on the brink for years, the events in Chicago just pushed him over the edge.
I doubt that anyone killed Murphy by proxy. Yes, it took a burn from the Sword of Faith to sober Harry up, but the reason the Knights were so hell bent on stopping him from killing Rudolph is because it isn't Harry's place to judge his fate, that is up to human justice and the Almighty. It stopped Harry from truly being guilty of murder not just from a human point of view, but the First Law of Magic, Harry would be executed one way or the other, and he is needed in the future.
