Funnily enough[,] though, the Golden Kris was yet to come across anything bad. <- *pats the Golden Kris* Such thoughts always inevitably mean that you do, love.
To be honest, I'm more than a little disconcerted by the use of 'it' in this, even if I can see the reason for it. It's just... awkward somehow. English should have a proper non-gender word for cases like this.
nd there were no clouds to trap any of the sun’s heat. The sky was looking particularly beautiful because of it, and with no moon to draw attention away from the subtle beauty of the blanket of stars <- two things. It's night now, yes? So shouldn't it be 'had been no clouds to trap'? That just sounds odd. Second, 'and with no moon ... what? Can't have an 'and' there if you don't have a main clause to go with it.
same liquid silence as ever <- I like that phrasing. I really do. (And assassins are fun, yes!)
Gah! My plan was to read two chapters at a time, but tell me how am I supposed to do that with an ending like that? (I liked the green eyes reference too.)
Very, very, very nice, me dear! One more then. *twitch*
