Warrior Nun Season 2 Theory: The Halo Was Stolen From Lucifer

Warning: SPOILERS ahead for Warrior Nun season 1.

The ending of Warrior Nun season 1 reveals that the so-called "angel" Adriel is actually a devil and a thief, and that he only gave the halo to Areala after stealing it himself. However, the series deliberately leaves a lot of questions unanswered regarding who exactly Adriel is, where he came from, and how he got his hands on the halo.

Ava, a teenager who was rendered quadriplegic by the car accident that killed her mother, was raised in an orphanage run by nuns, and was treated with particular cruelty by a nun called Sister Frances. This culminated in Sister Frances killing Ava with an overdose of painkillers, supposedly to save her from the outside world after she aged out of the orphanage. The halo was placed inside Ava's back while she lay in the morgue, and the mysterious artifact revived her, cured her paralysis, and gave her the power to rapidly heal and phase through walls. It certainly seems like the halo could be angelic in origin - but if it's not Adriel's, then who does it belong to?

Perhaps the biggest clue is the creature pursuing Adriel and the mask when he arrives in the mortal world. The Terasks are demonic in appearance and ruthless in a fight (one kills a perfectly innocent store attendant), and in Warrior Nun's season finale flashbacks they emerge from whatever realm Adriel came from. It might be theorized that the Terasks are actually agents of Heaven, given that their skeletons are made from Divinium. If they're actually demons, though, then according to Bible lore there is at least one creature in Hell that once had possession of a halo: Lucifer himself.

Translated from Latin, Lucifer's name means "morning star" or "light-bringer." He was once an angel who was thrown out of Heaven after rebelling against God, at which point he transformed into the king of Hell. If he retained his halo after falling, however, it could be the source of great power for him, especially as a holy object in a decidedly unholy place. Whomever Adriel stole the halo from is clearly desperate to get it back, as evidenced by the Terasks sent to Earth to chase after him (one left phased in the middle of a wall while trying to reach his tomb). All of this suggests that Adriel could be a lesser demon who stole the halo from Lucifer and fled with it, creating the Order of the Cruciform Sword to protect himself from Lucifer's wrath.

Of course, this raises the question of why the wraith demons ally themselves with Adriel at the end of Warrior Nun season 1 and follow his orders despite him not possessing the halo. This could be explained by Adriel, as a mid-ranking demon, having command of his own small army of loyal wraith demons. The finale's cliffhanger leaves Ava and her friends in a dire position as they face off against waves of the possessed, but if Adriel really is in the middle of an internal conflict with Hell, then things could get even worse in Warrior Nun season 2.
