I can state that firmly even without a memory of it.
If I were conscious then--- this situation would not have resulted.
I think it is likely that I mustered the last of my strength to take over
Jonathan's body--- and then I passed out.
I lost consciousness.
Though it sounds a bit nicer when saying it that way--- Essentially, I had
exhausted all of my strength.
Then who was it that had put me, exhausted, into that casket shelter?---
I have thus far convinced myself that even if I were unconscious, I would
unconsciously have entered the casket for the sake of self-preservation.
Seeing that I am alive, I could not find any other explanation.--- But if I
consider the fact of Erina Joestar also being alive, the story changes.
Even if I had unconsciously crawled into the casket, when Erina entered
the casket herself, she would surely have thrown me out of it, wouldn't she?---
Me, someone she hated, someone who killed her beloved partner, surely she
would throw out of the casket, yes?--- No.
I had best not give this too much importance.
I have actually already reached my answer.--- I just do not want to admit
it. It was Erina. When I establish the fact that she had inherited the Joestar family
bloodline, their will, I knew. I knew, yet I could not accept it.
It was by Erina Joestar.
That my life was saved.--- Though I would not like to admit it.
...However, considering the circumstances, there is no other answer.---
With me having taken over Jonathan's body and exhausted my strength, Erina
transported me to the casket and placed me inside with her.
There is no other way she and I, as well as that baby, could have been
saved.
Thinking a bit more normally, perhaps she took that course of action
because that was the corpse of her husband, something she could not simple
leave on the boat.
But I know that is wrong.
