Of course she does. Do you want to have any idea how much visiting the dentist when you're died would cost. Kkk
Uriel is no saint people....
He is an angel and a spy seems shady to me....
Having said that. Murphy was raised catholic, but is clearly not devout. Especially with what she has seen. The deal Mr sunshine probably offered was carefully worded to imply she would rest , wait for judgment, while stuff happened or she could go on fighting the good fight and wait for judgment. But Mr Sunshine was involved in this . One eye did not act alone on this

No, I think Odin did, or he took advantage of the crisis of faith, if you want to call it that, that Murphy went through when she thought that Harry was dead. Consider the games she played with the Swords after she thought Harry was dead. While she talked a good line to him about him not being a suitable Custodian of them after he returned, her own attitude was merely lip service. As Michael pointed out, Murphy was never made Custodian of the Swords though she acted like she was to Harry. Her attitude not just about being a Holy Knight again but towards the Swords was that they were mere tools. If she still had her faith like Michael had, or even Sanya though he claims to be an atheist, she would have understood their role and a Holy Knight's role in the possible redemption of a Denarian. She rejected all of that, which led to the breaking of a Holy Sword. It is what it is, she died a brave warrior woman, one selected by and retrieved by one of Gard's sisters and brought to Valhalla. No, I doubt that Uriel had anything to do with that, she may have had a choice, to work for Uriel and help her father and gain her own redemption. Or go to Vallhalla fight for Odin and gain her own form of freedom. I am thinking it is just another twist, the better to rule in hell verses being a servant in Heaven kind of thing.. Only she didn't deserve Hell, so consider Valhalla a form of Purgatpory for her.

I've wondered how we might ever see Murphy again. A few things I've thought of
* Harry will pull a move from Skin Game. There he hired Goodman Grey before Nichodemas could when they went to plunder Hades vault. When he goes back in time in some upcoming book (breaking one of the laws) he somehow runs into Goodman and hires him before the other version of him. (When hehires him to watch Justine in Peace Talks -or- Battle ground). Goodman then doubles Murphy like he did with the Accountant in Skin Game and it's really him who was shot in the neck and he has her hidden until he returns from the past to not cause a paradox....etc Since he's a Negloshi (sp?), the shot to the neck won't kill him..
* Something ghost related. After Ghost story I think it was maybe Odin or someone says how he "has crossed the boundary of life and death, opening himself up to options/things that will take notice of him..." Or something similar to that. So maybe in 12 months while in his new castle he has learned things related to that which allows him to talk to her. He did make the comment in Battle Ground about maybe it was time for him to start learning some new things after River Shoulders (Bigfoot) offers to teach him..

Except do you really think a Valkyrie would be fooled by this? A body was carried away and Odin's mark was left behind. Harry also would have been on it, he didn't appear to be. I also doubt that Murphy would have gone along with it.

So Murphy becomes the new Lash? Don't think this would be very satisfying for Harry.
