i think maybe niko sacrificed the world around him, like the egg apostle.
I don't think so... Why would he do that?
And the Egg Apostle sacrificed the world around him to give birth to another one, a "perfect one". That's why the world is still there (but different, as the children coome to realize) and why he (she?) took that "egg/Beherit" form.
the dog might also have been sacrificed, but somehow i doubt that.
But why would Miura give Niko a dog if it had absolutely no relevance to the plot? ;)
anyway, i think the nun was likely driven mad with grief right before niko's transformation. that would explain why she's "sane" in the game.
Hey... That's a good idea!
And that would explain how she knew that Niko died (or rather, "was dying"?) in front of her church...
why did the sister have the behelit? it was attatched to her hawk emblem, after all.
It was Niko's Beherit.
i still think niko was almost definately the apostle...
He was. It's stated in the Visual & Story File.
