2) The star Sirius is the star of Shiva.

3) The black dog(Sirius) is just a much as symbol of Shiva as the White Bull (Nandi). And accompanies him in his wrathful aspects.

There's a little more but I'm having trouble phrasing it right. Anyway, I think it's worth looking into. (Actually, this might partially explain her Kali connection, because Kali is a wrathful aspect of Shakti(Parvati) and the black dog, Sirius, accompanies Shiva only when he's in his destructive mode.
Oh, very interesting! Well I guess this confirms Lina's coming back as Tatsuya's ally - maybe during some kind of large-scale conflict?
