They reinforced Rip Jack's delusions in order to make him easier to manipulate and probably even led him towards the Reconquista agents in Tristain, hoping to use both of them to destroy ALFhiem.

* [[spoiler:He's alive!]]

* [[spoiler:Confirmed.]]

Same as above, a long-standing hypothesis.

[[WMG:Louise's familiar is Heatcliff]]

The familiar of a mage is something or someone that the mage needs the most. During their short relationship, [=KoKo=] had been the perfect older sister/mother figure for Louise, providing support and helping her come out of her depression. Louise even describes her [[spoiler:Panther Form]] as a perfect familiar.

Related to the above. From meta talk we know that Midori will appear in a ballroom dress, suggesting hir and possibly Asuna will be at a public event. We know that Prince Wales' assassination will occur very shortly. It has been hinted that Louise's familiar will be revealed at the end of the current arc. A public even would be best for the information to spread quickly. It is hinted that Asuna has some equivalent of a System Assist running in her head.

It's not only due to the knowledge transfer, as that was stated by WordOfGod to only give the players instinctive knowledge of exactly the skills at the levels they had in the game. It's something else on top of it. And Gandalfr is the quintessential WeaponMaster. It doesn't look like anyone but Asuna experienced this weird phenomenon (that we know of), which strongly suggests she is a unique case.

It might just be due to the knowledge transfer, but that was stated by WordOfGod to only give the players instinctive knowledge of exactly the skills at the levels they had in the game.

Realizing that the success of Dunkirk has given the Faerie Lords a major boost in popularity and that his window to seize power was rapidly closing as a result. He finds Rip Jack and hires him to kill some people, hoping to use the panic to undermine Sakuya.

As the embodiment of Cardinal, and Louise's familiar.

As the embodiment of Cardinal, and Loise's familiar.

He is Reconquista's TokenGoodTeamate and is fighting with them largely out of his anger at the injustices of the Tudors. Also it is inevitable that [[spoiler:King Joseph]] will abandon the Rebels once [[spoiler:Sheffield and her agents find the Founder's Music Box]] and they [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefullness are no longer useful.]] Once he realizes whose backing Roconquista and what they are planning, he will defect to Tristain, [[HeelFaceDoorSlam assuming they let him of course.]]

** Not to mention that WordOfGod stated that due to the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality, the gun has a high chance of being a 5.7mm FN Five-Seven, the gun Kirito uses in [=GGO=].

The guy is looking over a modern weapon, including ammunition, just before Louise and Botan come in. Given his job and the kind of clientèle he has, the gun surfacing later is highly likely.

[[WMG: The gun in the passer's shop will become significant to the plot]]

Based on a crack snippet. This will be Kirito's way of honoring her, and it will finally provide closure to perhaps the longest held unfinished business guilt trip he had.

** Things may change, but from what the authors has already said/posted, the answer appears to be "faeries".

Every ALO player is stuck in their ALO avatar. The only known in-universe means for return is Void Portal, which has no guarantees of changing people back when they pass back to Earth. So, do ALO Incident survivors stay as Faeries upon their return?
