Okay, I've been rereading Nerus and I found some things that seem really odd. So, this post will contain those oddities plus other things I didn't mention in my other post.
E42
Everything in Neru’s gallery seems to make sense based on what we see in the game, however, one thing does seem a bit strange to me. Why does Neru like scalpels? It’s really odd how one of his likes would be a medical tool used for surgical purposes and I can’t think of anything that would help me understand why he would like scalpels.
E43
After finishing Chapter 1, there is a new entry in the Glossary called “An Observation.” What’s so interesting about this entry is that it talks in first person, which is quite strange. Who is this? Are they also watching the events unfolding before us?
Anyway, it would seem that this person is writing their thoughts down and putting them into the Glossary, making me think that the other entry in the Glossary could have been possibly written by the same person. (If this is the case, then the information we get from it should be taken with a grain of salt since it’s based on their observation, which has the possibility of having false information. )
Prologue
An interesting find that I found while rereading the prologue was that a hidden message can be found in the backlogs when a sound that is similar to a sizzling followed up to what sounds like a ghostly howl happens is played. So instead of looking at the backlogs every time, you can just listen to the sound to find the hidden messages.
(Haven't tested this out in Chapter 2)
E44
Although it might be just reading too much about it, it would seem that Neru really cares about family issues. Although a stretch, it would seem to me that Neru has experienced this kind of event before.
E45
When seeing this quote, the event can be explained by having Oceros recall every angel that was damaged during the first Aon war causing them to fall terribly ill because Nomino was planning another war. (The reason why Nomino started the war was that Nomino saw that Shax as the Herald of Hope.) Yet, the events of the quote happen before Nomino has ever met Shax, making this quote quite strange. If this isn’t caused by the illness, then what can it be?
(In the context it was used, it can be concluded that Shax was starting to have feelings for Neru in some way, yet I find it a bit weird to have it described something like this…)
Chapter 1
E46
This quote contains two interesting things: Europe, Asia, and Africa vanishing and electronic devices breaking down.
I've brushed off the idea that Europe, Asia, and Africa vanishing was the result of the Second Eon War during the fight, but the more I think about it I can’t help but wonder how they vanish. Taking into account Obli’s story during Chapter 2, it’s hard to believe that the war somehow, even the place near the teleporter, annihilated the whole continent to which there is no trace of it. Even assuming the worst by having it take place on the same continent, the way Obli describes implies that there was still some form of land for Obli to walk around even after they closed the gates. Although it might be well destroyed, there is still some form of land remaining. Yet in Alessia’s time, they were described as vanished not destroyed. This leads me to believe that the result of Europe, Asia, and Africa vanishing wasn’t because of what occurred during the Second Eon War, but after.
The resulting Second Eon War also caused the electric devices to break down. What I find interesting about this is that it feels like it is connected in some way to what Obli has said regarding technology in Chapter 2. (At this point, I’m nearly certain that they are connected.) This leads me to two conclusions, either the angels predicted a second war happening on Earth 200 years earlier, or the angels used the war as an excuse to remove humanity on Earth from all of their technological advancement. (Either conclusion makes me wonder what the angles actually know and their goals in regards to Earth.)
E47
I don't know if anyone else felt this way but I find Bernardo to be… strange. Most of it stems from their first interaction, which I find a bit weird. From what I get from this quote, it feels like Bernardo switches personalities towards both Alessia and Bitey in a switch of a button. (Maybe Bernardo is done dealing with people with Bitey's attitude during their first confrontation, IE people who trying to scare Bernado in any way. But the switch is still off-putting for me.)
Will eventually made the post with Alessia since I still find it important to share my thoughts on the subject regarding her.
