Talk:Enryu's Thorn/@comment-13431791-20170507184402

i've had this hunch for a long time now that the thorn is the dead guardian's "core", or something like an 'organ' that gives it the ability to dominate shinsuu or something along those lines; like its not something that enryu brought in from outside the tower or was using himself, rather its something that was "delivered" by killing the guardian, a part of the guardian's body. this goes along with it being found "hollow" and "dead inside", because of course the guardian that it was formerly part of is dead.

the events of the floor of death arc are only making this hunch seem more and more likely to be the case, especially in light of whats going on with hell joe.
