To be fair the Sunlight Medal only says he watches closely over his warriors... Who's to say Nito doesn't help him watch over them from the grave?

And unlike the Firstborn's ring you can make multiple copies of a miracle... or at least I would assume so like you can magic although I can't recall a single miracle that is ever duplicated without going through multiple playthroughs. But I never bothered with miracles much so what do I know. And I mean, Havel gave his warriors everything else he used save the Dragon Tooth, so why not make multiple Great Magic Barries for all his warriors?

But I will agree with you, the Sunlight Medal does seem to point towards him being alive. But I always liked the thought of everyone thinking he was Solaire and completely ignoring the dead body with the Firstborn's ring. The ring doesn't prove enough, it's just a ring and could easily be given to anyone. The main thing though, is that From is not dumb enough to just create all this lore behind a such an interesting and mysterious character and then just kill him off without at least creating a story behind the why of it. Also, and I'm sure many people are tired of hearing this by now, but From has stated that the Firstborn wasn't in Dark Souls. Thus, that corpse can't be his.
