so now i'm thinking...
how strong is the Beth parasite?
what's going to happen to Alicia?
why was Raki able to hold off the parasite?
where is Priscilla?
It seems to me that Alicia will be running around as an uncontrollable Awakened now. Remember, she attacked the Abyss Feeders that were pursuing Riful. Riful notices Alicia's change, pointing out that Alicia killed the creatures that were on her side. When that spear hit Beth, she lost her control of Alicia.
I found the way that Raki was pulled back into the story to be very interesting. I'm speculating his resistance to the transformation has something to do with Priscilla; but what kind of power would she have to protect a human from an Awakened-like parasite? Perhaps Raki has some inherent ability? He, as a human, can kill Yoma, which many believed only Claymore could do. He has either done some major training in the past seven years, or gained some new power. (I'm sure it's a bit of both, in some way.)
