You mentioned that you did the Warrior last, but I would be very interested in hearing the whole order that you defeated the bosses. @Jorge Albor I’m working on a new post looking how different order variations would affect the differnt story arcs going on in the game.

I hadn't given much thought to imagining PoP as a linear narrative. I think I was pretty lucky in the order I killed the bosses because it seemed to fit really well with the story. I killed the Warrior last and found Elika's comments on his sacrifice incredibly relevant in light of her own sacrifices. But if I had gone about the game in any other way, it would have been less effective. I just wanted to let you know I really enjoyed this post.
