Murphy Family Reunion

--- Quote from: Mira on July 18, 2021, 08:48:39 PM ---There may have been, but in the matters of what happens to the soul, that is out of Uriel's hands.
As he said to Harry;
In other words what happens next is up to Uriel's Boss.. Uriel also said something else to
Harry that it was about faith, not knowledge.
I think shocking as it may sound that Murphy rejected her religion when she thought Harry was dead. Contrast her attitude about being a Knight and the Holy Swords and what the Knights stand for verses Michael, or even Sanya who claims to be an atheist. Nic tested her faith, and he won, a Holy Sword was broken, it was the Sword of Faith.. Let's not forget that Murphy proclaimed that she was a better suited to judge Nic than the Almighty, someone of faith wouldn't think that.. What comes next is the consequences of choices made in life, Murphy chose to reject her faith in higher power and to rely on her own judgement instead.. She chose to become a pure warrior, though her death was stupid, her final act was that of a warrior.. So the consequences was to be sent to Valhalla to still be a warrior.

I think you read too much in Uriel's words. He is a master in not telling things. Harry was saying things like judgement, eternal etc. Uriel just brought him back to Mab. In his case that was what comes next.
Jim probably lets it vague on purpose but strictly speaking we do barely know that Uriel's boss exists let alone what he is doing.
For now I assume his everafter is just something like Hades but with more harps and trumpets.

I could be reading too much into them, but Uriel isn't in charge of judgement and he has rules he has to play by.. I wouldn't assume anything since Uriel's everafter is hidden from us..

Well, my take is that Vadderung needs Murphy "for the rest of the mortals" whatever that means. And of course, I'll argue it will end up being Murphy acquiring a Mantle in the end if not the Mab one, at least in one or some alternate realities.

I don't know if Odin needs Murphy for that since all the soldiers in Valhalla were ordinary vanilla mortals at one time. I don't know what mantle Murphy would be eligible for.

"I want to subcontract one of your people."
"Who?"
"Karrin Murphy. Battle of the Bean."
"I'm aware. "
"Well?"
"You picking up the tab today?"
"You had the Kobe steak and a glass of Knappogue Castle 1951!"
"She's worth it. After Ragnarok she comes back?"
"Oh, all right. Baron Marcone's check came in for consulting services today."
"Slainte."
