In this episode, I'm joined by a friend as we enter Alchemilla Hospital.
The Scene in the Balkan Church
This is a game that discusses the subject of religion, and the subject of suffering. Alessa is someone who is essentially cruxificied for her religion, and to the Order, she is a Christ figure. Jesus Christ is both God and the Son of God; Alessa is both the Mother of God, and the Daughter of God. The dual nature of both figures, the great suffering they went through, and their holiness to their respective religions makes them very easy to compare. Showing the tortured image of Christ on the cross right before the player meets Dahlia, Alessa's mother, for the first time, associates the pain of the Christ figure with this woman - essentially, associates Alessa's pain and suffering with Dahlia. It also ties together the ideas of religion and suffering, and connects them to Dahlia.
On a funnier note, the Flauros really resembles the Triforce from The Legend of Zelda, doesn't it? The resemblance goes further. In the Silent Hill Play Novel, it is actually described as having the "power of the gods":
"It is power. The overwhelming power of the gods rests inside this four-sided object. It was a sensation like an electrical current passing into the palm of my hand, and then power moving throughout every nook and cranny in my body."
