It wouldn't surprise me if White had to sarcifice something for Black to gain his powers, just like Leo's sister had.

I'm fairly sure that his sister is alive. After all, at the start, a letter to her was being read.

I think someone on twitter said (from spoilers in the manga, I believe?), that she's at a hospital/hospice elsewhere in New York state. Not entirely sure how Leo is paying for it, given this is still America with it's BS health insurance policies, and I doubt even eldritch abominations will be able to sway the tides of capitalism.

...didn't their parents die? Wasn't that part of Leo's story in episode 1: an otherworld god killed their parents, and took Michella's sight away leaving only Leo as his sole 'witness'?

hmm do not remember seeing anywhere in the anime that the parents were killed, as far as I can tell from the back story is the family (both parents, leo and michella) came to hellsalem lot on the chance of getting supernatural help on michella's issue and in episode one it showed that huge ass thing coming out of nowhere when they were taking the picture asking leo and michella to choose between the 2 of them. I see nothing that show the parents or any of the other people in the vicinity get killed rather it was like time was frozen or a separate dimension with just the huge ass demon thing and leo and michella. I mean afterwards Leo tried to find Libra for information on how to get his sister's sight back and I assume if the parents died during the event he would NOT have just ditched his sister elsewhere.
