Hi everyone! Today i'm here to talk about one of my favorite verses: Umineko!
It is..a pretty strange and overpowered verse, and not just that. It should be noted that some of the information is purely subjective, since it's VERY hard to define Umineko's power and concepts. In this blog i will cover: a Cosmology explanation, the Terminology, a Concept Explanation, Social Hierarchy and much more. It will contain spoilers for the series, so if you are currently watching the visual novel or reading the manga, then well, you might not read this.

Before starting the blog, i need to do a little introduction. What exactly is Umineko..?

Introduction Umineko When They Cry


 (When They Cry 3; When The Seagulls Cry) is a Japanese murder mistery novel by 7  th  Expansion. The goal of the game is to discern whether the murderer is human or of some other supernatural source.  Umineko  is the third title in the   When They Cry   series, preceded by   Higurashi no Naku Koro ni   and   Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai  , and followed by   Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chiru .  Umineko When They Cry  is a murder mistery game described as a "sound novel" by 7  th  Expansion. A sound novel is similar to a visual novel though the gameplay requires no player interaction as the game is composed entirely of text dialogues. While a visual novel's basis would be the visual aspect, as the name suggests, a sound novel's basis takes more care in producing an atmosphere via the music, sound effects, and the story itself. As such, the original  Umineko   games have a simple-looking art style, which stays consistent over the course of the series' releases. The original releases contain no voice acting for the characters.

 Umineko no Naku Koro ni  takes place primarily in the year 1986, during the time frame of October 4 and October 5 on a small, secluded island named Rokkenjima 10 km around owned and lived on by Kinzo, the head of the wealthy Ushiromiya family. Kinzo is near death, and eight of his family members arrive on the island for the annual family conference, where the adults plan to discuss how Kinzo's assets will be divided once he is dead. Also on the island are three family members who live there, five of Kinzo's servants, and his personal physician. After the eight family members arrive, a typhoon traps them on the island, and shortly after, strange things start to happen and people start dying under mysterious circumstances.

The main character of the story is Battler Ushiromiya, son of Kinzo's second son Rudolf. Battler has not been to the annual Ushiromiya conference in six years due to living with his maternal grandparents ever since his mother Asumu died, and even took his mother's maiden name instead of Ushiromiya. When his grandparents died, he went back to living with his father, his second wife Kyrie, and their daughter Ange, his half-sister. Once on the island, Battler once again becomes acquainted with the legend of the golden witch Beatrice who supposedly lives in the naturally dense forest on Rokkenjima. A portrait of her lies in the entrance hall of the Ushiromiya family mansion, and a puzzling epitaph is written below the portrait. Rumor has it on the island that Beatrice gave ten tons of gold to Kinzo in the past to restart the Ushiromiya family after being crippled in the 1923 Great Kanto earthquake. It is said that whoever solves the riddle of the witch's epitaph will receive the gold and be the next successor to the Ushiromiya family. Once the typhoon hits, a ghastly game begins, starting with the murder of six people on the island. If the witch's epitaph cannot be solved, people will continue to die in mysterious deaths, following the outline given by the epitaph itself, until the witch Beatrice ultimately revives. After this comes to pass, Battler is the only one left alive who does not believe in witches or magic, and as such the door to the "golden land" (as stipulated on the epitaph) cannot be opened. Beatrice takes Battler and herself to another location of her territory, Purgatorio, which is able to oversee events on Rokkenjima. From this point on, Battler and Beatrice are locked in a game of twisted logic where Battler must attempt to explain all of the mysterious events on Rokkenjima from the standpoint that they are caused by a human, and Beatrice attempts to explain everything with witches and magic. One of the recurring motifs is use of the locked room mistery, and several logical arguments are presented to explain the mysteries including the devil's proof, the raven paradox and Schrödinger's cat. If Beatrice can get Battler to ultimately surrender and accept witches and magic, Beatrice wins.

Cosmology Explanation


'' The World of “When They Cry” is a constant-ascending world, where the lower worlds can be visualized as mere games or chessboards, and they are completely irrelevant to the beings who exist in higher planes. ''

We could think of its cosmology as something similiar to this

At the very bottom of the scheme of Aurora's World (visible, i'm not talking about the world shoed below), there is a deep, black ocean beyond every concept (Dephts of Oblivion. A little explanation about Oblivion: When erased, destroyed or conceptually denied, the essence of the discarded pieces of the higher layers are scattered to this area beyond the infinite dimensional hierarchy the sea encompasses where there is no concept of life, death or dimensions, vanishing from the game board entirely and disappearing. Similarly, this is the "hell" Voyagers who "missed a step" and lost their sense of self, fall into. Powerful enough entities can effect the lost souls who stumble here (such as Bernkastel). However, even the weakest entities such as Rika or other human higher beings, if erased there, can still exist and reform in or from this nothingness state as long as they can imagine a body, maintain (or regain) their will and emotions.) that leads you to the Starry Sky (Territory Sea of Fragments), which is just a layer of Beato's giant domain. Beyond Oblivion there is an endless staircase, and the Sea of Fragments is in fact just a layer inside the staircase, and it is located in the Domain of Witches (generally in the second layer). Before arriving to the Starry Sky though, you have to approach the lowest layers of the endless staircase (Infinite Hierarchy): the Domain of Humans. The Domain of Humans consinst on a Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts. The first conceptual layer is the Real World aka the Human World, a multi-layered reality made of several planes, one of them also contains the kakeras of the Human World, aka, the piece of fictions/stories created by Humans. Beyond the Human World, we find conceptual layers that forms the conceptual Domain of Humans as a whole. Here, the simple Cultural Concepts reside. The second conceptual layer is the Supernatural World, which is made of several abstract planes. (We could think of those planes as clouds in the sky). It is established by Wave Function. Various  multidimensional   space ,  the world of   demons, spirits, gods  ,  illusions  ,  side  in any number of dimensions. Different from humans by their   rules and logic. Those are Higher-Worlds with non-linear time, where the concepts of the Human World don't exist or if they exist they are irrelevant and follow a complete different science-explanation. Those higher-worlds can be   recognized by the fact that   the spirit, soul and consciousness evolve, in this world, the metaphysical “assumptions” that are made in the Human World, in those higher-worlds they become reality (an example is, in the Human World it's said that everyone need another person to create a perfect world based on their likes and etc. But that is ust a philosophical way of viewing things, in the Human World. But in the Higher-Worlds, that is what actually happen when you reunite with someone: you    actually    create a world)    , in the higher worlds you can also view the actual reasons of why sometimes strange things happen in the Human World and from that world, since magic exist, people use the “magic excuse” (which is actually a fact anyway) to demonstrate something (more explanation about it will come soon in my “Rokkenjima's Massacre: before and then” part of the blog).Those Higher-worlds can be either religious-like planes of existence (Buddha's plane, Ramadan and etc) or just simple higher-worlds where lower worlds are visualized. Those higher-worlds in Umineko are referred to the “Worlds of Spirits”. In order to ascend in that plane, you have to find a perfect balance between peace and hatred and shift your consciousness to an higher level. Doing that, you'll trascend human limitations and reach those higher-worlds in a giant megaverse (Chessboard). Doing that, you assume a “Spiritual Form”. In this form, you can now create worlds subconsciously with your imagination and your dreams can become reality. In the same plane of the Supernatural World we find infinite parallel universes and Quantum Mechanics as well.

Beyond it,  we have the Underside of the Gameboard,  nothingness (probably even in terms of supernatural beings) that exists beyond yet encompasses all times and places on the board giving already cosmically aware beings further insight. In the whole Chessboard, it is literally  the underside of the Gameboard, a trascendental mirror version of the Human World and the Spiritual Dimensions. Beyond the Underside of the Gameboard, we have multi-colored laws of nature. Beyond it, there are the Forms of Forces, the Combination of Laws. Beyond that last conceptual layer, we find an Existential Cold, the conceptual layer of the concepts of mind and emotions. Beyond that last concept, we find the conceptual layer of pieces of different truths, an unity of matter and spirit, and here is contained the concept of Kulturkreis. Finally, the last conceptual layer of the Domain of Humans is the hardness of Infinity, where you start to understand more about the Higher Domain. Those conceptual realms are the laws of the Domain of Humans, the embodiment of the fundamental concepts Aurora created to define the scheme of her ideal and perfect world; those conceptual ladders define the Domain of Human/Human's existence, they are broad concepts that write the existence of the World of Humans and sometimes may be too hard for them to understand, which is why Humans are limited to be beings with a ground on their feet limited only to their Imagination and Cultures (as the scheme even shows). All those conceptual layers are the laws of the Domain of Humans, the abstract forms that define Aurora's shceme of her ideal world, they are the broad meaning of the Domain of Human as a whole, particles of the Shinra Bansho of the lower-world, fundamental concepts that write the Cosmology and the essence of the Domain of Humans. They might even be too hard for human to actually understand, which is why they have a safe ground under their feet and they are limited to their imagination and to their world (Real World). Beyond that, there is the "Cloud of incomprehensible concepts", where the hardest, most complicated concpts reside. This plane acts as a "interfer room": if you'll surpass this plane, you'll start to understand the Domain of Witches and assume the shape of a Magical being. If you surpass that cloud, you'll reach the "Peak of All Things".

The "Peak of All Things" is what separates a human from the existence of a higher domain. These are the ultimate things that can be conceptualized in this domain. If you understand them, you will be able to advance beyond the wall, and if so, you will become a higher domain creature and most likely just disappear if you do not have a clear goal for existence. This is also related to Lambdadelta's description of humans: "The ones tossed about by fate are the humans. Fools, helpless, can't create anything. ...... However, they have a ground to firmly step under their feet. And that ground will never betray them, thus, they can live their whole existence without the fear of the terror of falling to hell" The peak is something like a transition stage. Man is already losing the importance of the steps of lower ladder. But it still does not fall into the abyss, and therefore still can return to human being. If he gets into the higher domain, he simply disappears because there the absence of a step means a fall, that is, a disappearance. And in order to have a step, you must clearly define yourself. Humans with a "growing mind that is ascending the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts"  have the potential to be Outversal. Humans being 1-A by merely understanding concepts is because, the evolution of the spirit allows someone's mind to evolve and reach an abstract and conceptual plane where fundamental concepts of the world are understood. If that being has a mind intelligent enough to understand the concepts and strong enough to endure the pain (because the evolution of the mind always causes harm to the being, since with the evolution the being will start to have a shape similiar to the one of higher-order being and will start to understand something that "goes beyond Human's understanding", and thus will cuase confusion to the Human), then his mind can understand trascendental concepts and will start to have a similiar mind/soul/motives to the one/ones of a higher-order being, which will allows the human to trascend human limitations and become more similiar to higher order beings. As i stated below, beings of the Higher Order are 1-A, and the realms themselves are Outversal, so yeah.

Once you'll trascend the Peak of All things, you'll finally find yourself in the higher part of the endless ladder: the Domain of Witches, which position is in the middle of the endless staircase. In case a Meta-Fragment (the fragment of a territory as a whole, for example Umineko's Fragment) has a Territory Lord, then it should be noted that there are different types of layers of the Domain of Witches: the first layers, that were said to be located in the Territory. And then, if there any layers that were mentioned and that are beyond the Territory, then those are outside the Territory. In the case of Umineko, the two most common and important realms in Beato's Territory are the Meta-World and the '''Golden Land, and together with all the other realms, they shape the general Chessboard of the games of Umineko. How do we know that? Well, Bernkastel viewed the Sea of Fragments and the Meta-World as a chessboard from Featherine's Study, a place outside Beato's Territory. Those Chessboards take the shape of Kakeras inside the Cat Box.''' Trough the looking glass of the Kakera/Chessboard, we can see that a single possibility has actually an infinite amount of variants.

 The peak of Beato's Territory is her own Cat Box, which contain an infinite amount of Kakeras. Outside the Territory of Beato, it is said that there are an endless amount of Cat Boxes that are infinetely larger than Beato's. Finally, we find the highest known realms of the Domain of Witches, aka the realms outside Beato's Territory. Those include: Witches's Theatre, Featherine's Study, Hell, Purgatory, Heaven, the City of Books and Maria's Existential Plane. However, all those planes are viewed as nothing more than an irrelevant chessboard in the Forbidden Layer. The Forbidden Layer is a multi-layered existence, and the highest layer of the Forbidden Layer is Featherine's Realm, the last boundary before reaching God. Overall, the Forbidden layer is pretty much the last steps of the staircase, where you are VERY close to God. Speaking about the staircase, the Infinite Hierarchy has its own underside: the True Sea of Fragments. A place where all Voyager Witches consantly travel across the infinite Sea to find a Fragment to escape their boredom. On this World, Umineko as a whole (aka, Umineko's territory and Beatrice's Cat Box) is nothing more than just a Fragment inside an infinite size ocean containing an infinite amount of Fragments. Even Umineko's predecessor, “Higurashi- When the cicades cry” is nothing more than just a meaningless fragment. Every Fragment is nothing but insignificant existence to the true Voyages. Finally, at the top of the Hierarchy, we find the Domain of the Creator,where restrictions, life, death and meaning do not even exist.

Golden Land


 * The highest plane of existence of Umineko (Territory as a whole; Fragment) in the True Sea of Fragments (read below)).  In EP 8, it was also showed to be one step above than Oblivion, and it was resisting its own erasure caused by Oblivion.
 * The existence of this world is mantained by Beatrice's Golden Heart.

 Meta-World 


 *  The most common layer of Umineko (Fragment). It exists on a MUCH higher plane than the gameboard. It is a layer of the Infinite Hierarchy, and it's usually visisted by Witches considering that the Meta-World is actually the main living place of Witches. 
 *  This is where all Meta-World beings gather. 
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en"> In this world, the gameboard is viewed as a Chessboard or as a Fragment. 
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en"> In the Meta-World, concepts are meaningless to the ones who reside there.

 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en"> The Meta-World encompasses many metaphysical worlds of the Infinite Layered world of Witches. Those worlds include: 
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en"> Thinking Room: The room where the ones from the human side discuss with each other 
 * <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en"> Witches's Tea Room: The world from readers from outside Beato's territory. Those readers can view the game from here.

The true “Hell” of the verse is a Dante-like Hell where every entity from “When They Cry” and even more reside. It is described as a bottomless pit beyond the Infinite Hierarchy and its existence is connected with Purgatory.) 
 *  The Balcony.   In Umineko's fighting game, every world possess a Meta-World version where Meta-World moves are used. Thus, the Balcony (which is a location of the Human world) isn't anymore a location of the Human World, but ascended to an higher plane and became an higher-dimension (that is, its Meta-World version, a world that every character of the game can manipulate).   This is how the Meta-World version look like.

 *  The Shed. The Shed is where the the first six sacrifices for the Witch's epitaph took place during the first two games.This is a Meta-World view of Shed.  
 *  Kuwadorian. The Kuwadorian is the hidden mansion on Rokkenjima where Beatrice was held. In Banquet of the Golden Witch, the existence of a smaller mansion called Kuwadorian on Rokkenjima is revealed. In the year 1967, Kinzo had managed to trap Beatrice in a human body and seal her memories. The human Beatrice lived in Kuwadorian alone. Rosa chanced upon this mansion one day, and invited the human Beatrice out of the mansion to "see the outside world", only to have the human Beatrice fall off a cliff and die. Upon her death, Beatrice regained all her memories and powers. Like the others stages, it has a Meta-World version. This is a view of Meta-World Kuwadorian.  
 *  The Shrine. This is where the mirror that contained Beatrice's powers was located. In order to ask for a wish, Shannon had to destroy that mirror. Like the other stages, it has a Meta-World variant. This is a view of the Meta-World Shrine.  
 *  Main Hall.   This is where Beatrice's portrait and the epitaph of the gold can be seen. Like the other stages, it has a Meta-World variant. [http:// https://youtu.be/DDADZd82pmg?t=14m13s This is a view of the Meta-World variant of the Main Hall]. 
 *  The Room of the Gold. This is the room where Italian's gold (which then became Kinzo's, see EP7 to know more) is kept. When Eva solved the epitaph discovered the gold, her bad and childish side was separated from Eva and became the new Golden Witch: Eva Beatrice. Like the other stages, it has a Meta-World variant. This is a view of the Meta-World variant.  
 *  The Ship. Erika's ship. This appears in EP8, and it was used to destroy the door to the Golden Land, so that all the Theory Goats could have reached that majestic place created by Beato. The ship also appear during the battle between Beatrice's side and Bernkastel's side in the Golden Land! Like every other stage, it has a Meta-World variant. This is a view of the Meta-World version.  
 *  The Chapel:  The Chapel ( 礼拝堂   Reihaidō? ) is a building on Rokkenjima and the site of several murders that take place. It is situated in a grove behind the mansion, which could be reached after a short walk.  It had been built at the same time that the mansion had been constructed on Rokkenjima, so while its outside walls had been repaired many times, making it look new from the outside, it was a very old building. To Kinzo, it was a very sacred place, and so he has harshly told his children not to approach it unnecessarily. It has its own key, so master keys won't allow it to be opened. In addition, Willard, a piece on the gameboard, is capable of lifting all of Beatrice's infinite games in his hand whilst manifesting in the Cathedral.
 * Zepar and Furfur's Realm. Probably the highest Meta-World universe. A common realm in EP6. This place acts as a “behind-the-scenes”. In this place, Zepar and Furfur announces the love trials to the pair of lovers, and it resembles a Meta-World place.

Depths of Oblivion (Outversal)
<p style="font-weight: normal"> When erased, destroyed or conceptually denied, the essence of the discarded pieces of the higher layers are scattered to this area beyond Beatrice's Territory the sea encompasses where there is no concept of life, death or dimensions, vanishing from the game board entirely and disappearing. Similarly, this is the "hell" Voyagers who "missed a step" and lost their sense of self, fall into.

Powerful enough entities can effect the lost souls who stumble here (such as Bernkastel). However, even the weakest entities such as Rika or other human higher beings, if erased there, can still exist and reform in or from this nothingness state as long as they can imagine a body, maintain (or regain) their will and emotions.

In EP 8, it was also going to consume the Cat Box, and at the end of EP 8,the Cat Box reached the Dephts of Oblivion.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> Since it's unknown if this state is applicable in combat, however, even the weakest of entities are at the least noted to be  Outerverse level  in durability via regeneration and hax, whilst more powerful beings are noted to being capable of effecting these structures.

<h2 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Umineko's Cosmology: Endless Staircase

Infinite Hierarchy/Realm of Witches (High Hyperversal to Outversal)
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">'' The cosmology When They Cry has infinite higher worlds, being analogued to an infinite ladder that has infinite steps(being called "endeavors") that leads to the bottomless abyss, or rather the infinite hierarchical abyss (a similar concept to that of Ein Sof). The Witches are higher existences than human and the higher they (and other higher beings) walk on that ladder and the more they seek freedom and power, the more they freed from restrictions proportionally. '' Humans are the lowest existences on that hierarchy, tied and tossed around by fate and at the lowest "endeavors". In the "middle" are the Witches, creators of fate and its players, they accepted limitations and restrictions so that they will not lose the "ground" on their foot (with Lambdadelta somewhere on that "middle"). The ultimate beings that stand at the top (Brahman) of the infinite hierarchical abyss are the Creator, the Gods and Creator Witches, who freed from infinity and all restrictions, they boundless and had survived even unboundness itself, they are absolute, omnipotent, omniscient, creators and rulers of all Creation. This hierarchy is basically the actual living place of Witches where the latters constantly evolve in order to reach more freedom and liberty and to become a creator, though most of the times they accept limitations and define the “ground under their foot”. <h2 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Umineko's Cosmology: True Sea of Fragments (Underside of the Infinite Hierarchy, also called "World of the Gods") An infinite amount of different verses are stored (some are 1-A in size (like Umineko and Higurashi), some are High 1-C (TRianthology and Higanbana), some may be High 1-B (maybe there are other worlds that contain a world similiar to the Infinite Hierarchy) and etc). It contains Meta-Kakeras, aka the kakeras that represent the entirety of a Territory (Umineko, Higurashi and etc), and they are different and FAR bigger than the normal Kakeras, aka the ones that are mentioned troughtout the entirety of Umineko. Those "Normal Kakeras" are basically the kakeras of the Sea of Fragments or the Cat Box.

The True Sea of Fragments is where all the Voyagers travel to if they want to watch a story or even be players.

This is where Featherine chooses all the best stories (such as Umineko, it was a story in the True Sea of Fragments with the shape of a kakera, but then Featherine took it and turned it in a book that was going to be placed in the City of Books) and turn them in books.

<h2 style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> Infinite Hierarchy:   It is subdivided in   the Domain of Humans, Domain of Witches, Forbidden Layer and the Domain of the Creator

Human World/Real World
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">'' (10D)The Human World is a layer of the Infinite Hierarchy of Humans. Thus, the Hierarchy of Humans can be compared to the one of Witches, especially since just like Witches mock humans from above, Featherine mocks Witches from above, and Featherine is an almost-Creator being. '' This shows that the cosmology of Umineko is always evolving and it's a constant chain-reaction, and thus the various hierarchies are similiar. The Hierarchy is made of layers, and as explained above, each layer is made of a spatial dimension and non-linear time. The Human World is 3D space and 4D time, the non-linear time would make a 5D dimension. Adding the concept of non-dualism would make the Human World 6D. Not only that, but inside the Human World, there is the “Sea of Internet” (see below Sea of Internet and Theory Goats).

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Throughthout the entirety of EP 8, this was confirmed to be the "Cat Box" of the future, where all the theories made about Rokkenjima's Massacre are stored. A Cat Box i said to be one dimensional greater than the rest of the worlds, as showed below. And then, there is the Human Version of the Territory Sea of Fragments. As confirmed by Alice in TRIanthology, the Human World has a Sea of Fragments where all the countless piece of fictions made humans take the shape of kakeras (those kakeras are viewed as fiction inside the Sea of Fragments of the Human Domain, which means that instead of being 10D, they are 9D due to being one-dimensional lower). As a layer of the Human World (the highest one), it adds 3 spatial dimensions as stated above. Overall, the Human World is 10D.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

<h3 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Rokkenjima

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">A famouf location of the Real World. Rokkenjima is a fictional island on which most of the action in Umineko no Naku Koro ni series takes place. It is small and secluded, lying just off the coast of Japan. Rokkenjima measures roughly 10km around and is covered mostly by forest, save for the mansion grounds as well as the grounds of a smaller, separate mansion. The design of the exterior of the main mansion's guest house is based on a mansion in Kyu-Furukawa Gardens in Kita, Tokyo.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Supernatural World (High Hyperversal)
Supernatural world (InfiniteD)- Where various supernatural entities reside. It is.

As seen in Aurora's scheme of the World, the Spiritual World is estabilished by theconcept of Wave Functions, which form Hilber Space. Because of that, the Spiritual World is Infinite Dimensional.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal">

Reverse side of the Board (Outversal)
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> The reverse side of the board - A transcendental void beyond lower world concepts of space and time. It exists beyond time and place of the board making it a 14 dimensional plane, considering that, as confirmed by the image of the Cosmology Hierarchy, it is “a trascendental void beyond everywhere and everytime”.. As showed in Aurora's shceme of the World, it is a Trascendental Realm beyond time, place and coordinates, a reflection of reality where an illogical flows of events are stored.

Multicolored Laws of Nature (Outversal)
Exist as an higher plane (compared to the previous ones) of the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts. The laws of the World are what represent the several fundamentals planes of existence: Physic Plane, Mental Plane, Causal Plane, Akaishic Plane, Astral Plane, Spiritual Plane, Messianic Plane.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> This universe has seven planes, or dimensions. (A diagram later in this chapter illustrates them.) Three are ordinal (concrete), three are cardinal (abstract), and one is neutral, providing connection. The most ordinal plane is the physical, which is concrete energy. Its position is mirrored by the most cardinal plane, the buddhaic, which is abstract energy. The astral plane (concrete emotion) is the middle ordinal plane. It is mirrored in position by the middle cardinal plane, the messianic (abstract emotion). The causal plane (concrete thought) is the highest ordinal plane. It is mirrored in position by the lowest cardinal plane, the mental. This mirroring balances the universe. The higher planes are about pure energy, love, and truth; the lower planes are about manifesting them. The fulcrum of the balance is the neutral akashic plane. It connects all the others through the akashic or record-keeping aspect of each plane, which feed into it.

There are etheric, nonsolid levels of the physical plane both lower and higher in frequency than our physical bodies. Some people with psychic skills can see them. The fact that they can be physically seen indicates that they are part of the physical plane. We cannot physically see what is nonphysical, although we may translate our nonphysical perceptions into physical images. The etheric substance lower in vibration than the solid physical connects it with the Tao. This is the realm of devas, or nature spirits; it could be called the “lower physical plane.” The etheric substance higher in vibration than the solid physical connects it with the astral; it is in the realm of what could be called the “upper physical plane.” It is the domain of “ghosts,” and some extraterrestrials. The ethereal life form of the “higher sentients” who lived on earth before the “fall of man” was also of the upper physical plane. What we consider solid substance, as well as other vibrations that we can directly perceive such as light and sound, exist in the “middle physical plane.” It might be more accurate to view the planes as being in a circle rather than a line. This is illustrated in the following diagram. Each spiral loop is a plane of creation. The six spiral loops that make one big loop, like a “Slinky” toy with the beginning and end connected, are the planes we experience in a progression. The loop in the middle is the akashic plane; it is not directly part of the progression because we do not actually have a cycle of experience there—it is a resource for the universe as a whole, and provides the Tao with a distillation of all that has been accomplished in this universe. The point of beginning (“Entrance”) and end (“Exit”) is in the Tao, the undimensional ground of all being—this is where we start and finish the game. The pattern filling each loop representing a plane matches that of the plane on the same axis; for example, both the astral and messianic planes are on the inspiration axis, and both are filled with a checkerboard design. The fill of the loop representing the akashic plane is a darker version of the neutral gray pattern that fills the circle representing the universe as a whole, signifying the akashic records that extend from the akashic plane and interpenetrate all the planes of existence. The akashic plane is directly accessible from the causal and mental planes, illustrated on the diagram with straight lines. ====Although this model demonstrates the progression of sentient consciousness, it should not be construed as meaning that only the physical and buddhaic planes have direct contact with the Tao. The diagram illustrates this by showing the universe (the inner circle) as being contained within the Tao (the outer circle).==== ====Since the Tao is the ground of all being, every plane has a direct connection with it. The Tao is inherent in any vibrational frequency; those on any plane can “arrive” at it “coming or going” through either increasing their frequency to “all frequency” or decreasing it to “no frequency.”====

Akaishic Plane/Records
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">In theosophy and anthroposophy, the Akashic records are a compendium of all human events, thoughts, words, emotions, and intent ever to have occurred in the past, present, or future. They are believed by theosophists to be encoded in a non-physical plane of existence known as the etheric plane. There are anecdotal accounts but no scientific evidence for existence of the Akashic records.

Akasha is the Sanskrit word for 'aether' or 'atmosphere'. Also, in Hindi, ākāsh means 'sky' or 'heaven'.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">The Sanskrit term akasha was introduced to the language of theosophy through H. P. Blavatsky (1831–1891), who characterized it as a sort of life force; she also referred to "indestructible tablets of the astral light" recording both the past and future of human thought and action, but she did not use the term "akashic". The notion of an akashic record is attributed to Alfred Percy Sinnett, who, in his book Esoteric Buddhism (1883), wrote of a Buddhist belief in "a permanency of records in the Akasa" and "the potential capacity of man to read the same." By C. W. Leadbeater's Clairvoyance (1899) the association of the term with the idea was complete, and he identified the akashic records by name as something a clairvoyant could read. In his 1913 Man: How, Whence, and Whither?, Leadbeater claims to record the history of Atlantis and other civilizations as well as the future society of Earth in the 28th century.

The akashic record is like an immense photographic film, registering all the desires and earth experiences of our planet. Those who perceive it will see pictured thereon: The life experiences of every human being since time began, the reactions to experience of the entire animal kingdom, the aggregation of the thought-forms of a karmic nature (based on desire) of every human unit throughout time. Herein lies the great deception of the records. Only a trained occultist can distinguish between actual experience and those astral pictures created by imagination and keen desire.

Astral Plane
The Astral Plane, also called the astral world, is a plane of existence postulated by classical (particularly neo-Platonic), medieval, oriental, and esoteric philosophies and mystery religions. It is the world of the celestial spheres, crossed by the soul in its astral body on the way to being born and after death, and is generally believed to be populated by angels, spirits or other immaterial beings. In the late 19th and early 20th century the term was popularised by Theosophy and neo-Rosicrucianism. Another view holds that the astral plane or world, rather than being some kind of boundary area crossed by the soul, is the entirety of spirit existence or spirit worlds to which those who die on Earth go, and where they live out their non-physical lives. Some writers conflate this realm with heaven or paradise or union with God itself, and others do not. P. Yogananda wrote in Autobiography of a Yogi, "The astral universe . . . is hundreds of times larger than the material universe . . .[with] many astral planets, teeming with astral beings." (p.416) When Alice Bailey writes of seeing "Masters . . . upon the inner spiritual planes [who]. . . work with Christ and the planetary hierarchy," she refers to a vision she had of the unseen astral realm that these and countless other beings inhabit. Christ being in that realm, it is hard to construe it as a non-heaven.

The Barzakh, olam mithal or intermediate world in Islam, and the "World of Yetzirah" in Lurianic Kabbalah are related concepts.

Mental Plane
The mental plane , or  world of thought  , in Hermeticism, Theosophical, Rosicrucian, Aurobindonian, and New Age thought refers to the macrocosmic or universal plane or reality that is made up purely of thought or mindstuff. In contrast to Western secular modernist and post-modern thought, in occult and esoteric cosmology, thoughts and consciousness are not just a byproduct of brain functioning, but have their own objective and universal reality quite independent of the physical. This reality itself constitutes only one gradation in a whole series of planes of existence (the total number of planes varies, although seven is a common number in Theosophical formulations). In most such cosmologies and explanations of reality, the mental plane is located between, and hence is intermediate between, the astral plane below and the higher spiritual realms of existence above. The esoteric conception of the mental plane had to wait till the occult revival of the late 19th century, with the development of modern Theosophical, Hermetic, and Kabbalistic ideas that were to serve as the foundation for the current New Age movement.H. P. Blavatsky taught a cosmology and ontology consisting of seven principles and seven planes. In her writings she aimed at showing how different spiritual systems share a common source, and therefore refers to Vedantic, Buddhist, Samkhyan, Tantric, Neoplatonic, Ancient Egyptian, Kabbalistic, and Occult systems. She relates the mind with the principle of Manas, and also talks about a kosmic Manasic plane. However, the latter represents a very sublime level of consciousness which can be experienced only by enlightened beings.

In The Kabbalah Unveiled, MacGregor Mathers divides the sephirot (apart from the lowest, Malkhut, representing the physical world) of the Tree of Life into three triads: the Intellectual, Moral, and Astral triads. The Intellectual triad could be compared to the Neoplatonic ideas (Intellect = Nous) and this here represents the highest subdivision.

Around the turn of the twentieth century, Max and Alma Theon were producing The Tradition. This involved a Lurianic Kabbalistic-inspired cosmology in which the ineffable Godhead emanates a number of sublime worlds, the lowest of which is made up of seven or eight States. The third or fourth lowest State is the Mental or Intellectual, which again corresponds to a very high, spiritual level of consciousness.

Messianic Plane
The Emotional Plane  in the teachings of Annie Besant, C. W. Leadbeater and other teachers in the Theosophical Society (Adyar) is also called  Astral Plane. It is immediately above the physical plane in degree of subtlety. This is the plane of the Emotional Body (also known as Astral Body in their teachings), the one where the Ego experiences dreams, and on which the soul of the deceased person dwells immediately after physical death. Some students assume that the Kāmaloka found in the teachings of H. P. Blavatsky and the Masters of Wisdom are equivalent to the Emotional or Astral Plane. But this is not the case. As C. W. Leadbeater explained to Indian Theosophists:You will observe that in speaking of this subtler world I am using the term "astral plane", and not "Kamaloka", which is often employed as a Sanskrit equivalent. I avoid that because I am not sure that it is an equivalent, for I think that when you define it as the place of desire you mean almost exclusively lower desire, and that would make it much more limited than is the astral plane.

Causal Plane
Causal plane is a term used in Neo-Theosophy, some contemporary Vedanta, the New Age, (especially some channelled communications), and sometimes Occultism, to describe a high spiritual plane of existence, i.e. (hyperplane, which even the physical is). However there is great variation between the different definitions. The Neo-theosophy of Annie Besant and C. W. Leadbeater replaced Blavatsky's "Higher Manas" principle with the "Higher Mental", "Abstract Mind" (as opposed to Lower Mental or "Concrete Mind"), or Causal Body. The equivalent cosmic plane is the Causal Plane. A detailed description of the Causal Plane, along with the Causal Body, is provided by A. E. Powell, who has compiled information in the works of Besant and Leadbeater in a series of books on each of the subtle bodies.The Neo-theosphical concept of Causal Plane proved very influential both in India (via the Adyar branch of Theosophy) and in the New Age, via Alice Bailey.

Physical Plane
===='''On the physical plane, by transcending the material illusions round about and entering into a space of no space and a time of no time, you experience the Tao. You can get there by descending through the earth vibration or ascending through the heaven vibration. The solid roles generally find the former to be easier. The fluid roles find the latter to be easier. However, any role can do both. This is available only when balance and nonattachment are achieved.'''====

Spiritual/Buddhaic Plane
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal">The highest plane of creation. Its medium is pure or abstract kinetic energy. We experience the buddhaic plane just before fully refocusing our awareness in the Tao. The infinite soul who incarnated as Buddha taught from this plane. <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal"> <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal">

Spiritual Universes
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Humans with a "growing mind that is ascending the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts"  have the potential to be Outversal. Humans being 1-A by merely understanding concepts is because, the evolution of the spirit allows someone's mind to evolve and reach an abstract and conceptual plane where fundamental concepts of the world are understood. If that being has a mind intelligent enough to understand the concepts and strong enough to endure the pain (because the evolution of the mind always causes harm to the being, since with the evolution the being will start to have a shape similiar to the one of higher-order being and will start to understand something that "goes beyond Human's understanding", and thus will cuase confusion to the Human), then his mind can understand trascendental concepts and will start to have a similiar mind/soul/motives to the one/ones of a higher-order being, which will allows the human to trascend human limitations and become more similiar to higher order beings. They take the shape of Spirits, beings who are in the middle between Humans and WItches, beings who understood the truth of their world and thus understood the primordial concepts of the Hierarchical Ladder, and they are ready to create their own Spiritual World. '''However, that's no easy task. Humans that understood the entire truth of the world (like Sayo), and thus their mind ascend to the Ladder of Concepts, have to understand FIRST all those concepts. In order to create their own perfect world, spiritual entities have first to understand completely all the rules and laws of the various planes (Astral Plane and etc). Once they understand that, they can fully utilize those concepts in order to create a perfect and balanced world. Mainly because, those planes of existence contain the very essence of the Spiritual-Universes. Thus, if you can't understand and use those concepts, you can't create your own perfect world.''' In Umineko, many were able to create their own perfect spiritual world beyond those very concepts they understood. Shannon and George are an example, Sayo is another, Beatrice, Ange and Maria are another one.. But speaking of Maria, she is the only character in the entire “When They Cry” series that can create a universe by herself. As the daughter of God, as the Chosen one, she was destined to become the greatest creator in all of existence...but i'm going too far, if you want to know more, then you should read “Maria Ushiromiya” and “Magic of Origins” below.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal"> But speaking of Maria, she is the only one who was able to create a multi-layered spiritual universe. Even before the events of Rokkenjima's Massacre, despite the fact that Maria didn't know anything about the existence of higher dimensions or so, she subconsciously created her own Spiritual and perfect world by herself (something that Beato, Bernkastel and Lambdadelta can't do) where she was able to play with her animal friends and peluches. In this world, cause and effect don't matter to her, she's like an innocent goddess playing in a dimension beyond Human's understanding. She can see everything that happen in the Human World, and at the same time she can have fun with Beatrice and she can use the power of her imagination to modify her world so that she can do everything she wants, which made her create “Lion Land” a world created for her best friend Sakutarou!! [http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/vsbattles/images/0/07/Maria%27s_World_2_Umineko.jpeg/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/640?cb=20161218184333 This is the gameboard that Maria's subconsioucly created in order to make Ange believe in magic and hope. In this gameboard, Maria's wishes come true, and Sakutarou is still alive. Maria's Gameboard has 3 layers: the first one isMaria's subconsious/mind. In Maria's mind, Sakutarou exists and will always stay by her side.] [https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/vsbattles/images/4/49/Umineko_Naku_no_Koro_Ni_Not_her_will.gif/revision/latest?cb=20161222223008 In the seond layer there is a Meta-World like place. It's the place where Maria tortured her mother thousands of times in order to “purify her” from her sins. ]

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal"> As Maria describes it, it is a place that goes FAR beyond the Human's world and Beatrice compared it to the Realm of the Witches. Because of that, it should be higher than Maria's mind-layer.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal"> [https://youtu.be/chfAKW_PpfI?t=59m33s The third, and final layer is “Lion land”. It is sorta of a Golden Land-like place where Maria and Beato can play without end and daydream about any kind of things.Considering that this is considered by Maria as the most important and relevant place for her, and that it resembles the Golden Land (which is superior to the Meta-World, aka Maria's 2nd layer)], it should be the highest of the layers.

Incomplete Golden Land
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal">One of the most important Spiritual Worlds in Umineko, ruled by Sayo Yusada. Sayo Yusada's world. After learning the truth about magic, she wanted to enter in the World of Witches in order to escape from the horrible reality she was put in. As a consequence she became a Spiritual entity, and because she learned the absolute truth created by God (“Without love, it cannot be seen”, read below in order to understand more), her soul evolved and she became the Territory Lord of her world (which will then evolve and become Umineko, that will happen after Sayo's transformation to Beatrice and after the latter created the Cat Box in order to create a fragment, just one fragment where she can actually live a happy life (Miracle Fragment, Sayo didn't become Beatrice and instead lives the life as the child of Natsuhi, Lion Uhsiromiya). Anyway, she created her Golden Land, the place that he likes to describe as the "Golden Paradise". However, she still felt that the world was incomplete..still, he wasn't able to understand what was incomplete. So she still kept playing and he still kept watching how Shannon was living her life from above. And she saw that Shannon wasn't doing well..she was terribly in love with Battler, but the latter couldn't understand her feelings. Because of that, Sayo took Shannon's love for Battler in order to not make her suffer anymore, and became the entity Beatrice, an entity that Battler would have loved. As a result, Beatrice started the gameboard, which will then take place 6 years after Sayo's transformation. Beatrice also created her perfect version of the Golden Land; created by her love for Battler; which then became the highest reality of Beatrice's Territory, and also an higher layer of the Realm of Witches.

Hardness of Infinity
Exists as an higher plane (compared to the previous ones) of the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts

Beyond the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts (Outversal)
Cloud of Concepts (Outversal) A cloud made of incomprehensible concepts, the hardest ones to understand for a human, and once you understand those, your mind will evolve as the height of the intellect will grow, allowing you to reach the "Peak of All Things". Here, all the most complicated concepts beyond normal Human's understanding reside. By acknowledging the existence of all these concepts and understanding their meaning, you access to the "Peak of All Things".

This Cloud acts as a forbidden door that separetes the World of Humans to the last layer before becoming a being of higher order. In this cloud, the previous conceptual ladders are mostly irrelevant as in this cloud incomprehensible concepts that bind you with the Domain of Witches reside, concepts that you need to understand before arriving to the Peak of All Things, where the trial to become a Witch starts.. This means that concepts like Plao's Theory of Forms, which is a Domain of Human's concept, is trascended in this place, which guarantees that the Cloud of Incomprehensible concepts is Outversal.

Peak of All Things (Outversal)
1st Layer Once you'll reach this plane, your existence will start to free itself from Humans's restrictions: the height of your intellect will grow, the ladder of concepts loses its meanings, and you are slowly starting to assume the shape, mind and phisicality of a being of the higher order

2nd Layer
In this place, the true secrets of the universe will be revealed, and as you'll try to understand what is actually going on, your mind will start to break regardless of your intelligence, which means that the mission of becoming a being of higher order will become more dangerous and risky.

3rd Layer

The 3rd (and final) layer is the wall of inscrutability, the fence of the higher domain. When you reach this plane, it means that you are ready and you have the potential to become a being of higher order. This acts as a gateway to the "Domain of Witches".

==Domain of Witches: Beatrice's Territory/Beatrice's Higher-World Chessboard(Beatrice's Chessboard contains the various planes of the Domain of Humans, and in addition, new, trascendental worlds of the Domain of Witches, since this is a story of the Domain of Witches and it includes new realms created by Beato once she recreated the World; like the Golden Land and Meta-World)/Rokkenjima's Tales (Outversal, Middle of the Infinite Hierarchy)==

<h3 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Rokkenjima (EP 8) <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">(Outversal) As showed in EP 8, it is part of the Territory of Beatrice. Theory Goats also manifested as kakeras(and later as Goat Butlers)and were going to manipulate the Dephts of Oblivion to consume Rokkenjima, which was even resisting the erasure. Not to mention that,while Battler and Beatrice were celebrating the end of the game, Bernkastel created her own Chessboard as the second Game Master, and later killed six people in Battler's Chessboardand took Ange as an hostage to receive Battler's attention. Battler than accepts the game, and the pieces are transportated in Bernkastel's Chessboard (which is a Human-Type Chessboard). <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">As later showed, when Ange (a piece inside Battler's Gameboard who saw the six victims) tried to call Battler, Maria and George, but they weren't able to hear her, because while they were in the same world, they were in completely different worlds at the same time, since Ange still remained a piece in Battler's Gameboard while Battler, Maria and George accepted Bernkastel's game. Later it was blatantly showed that the two Chessboards are separate because while in Battler's Chessboard the pieces are fighting the Theory Goats, in Bernkastel's, Bernkastel was trying to convince Ange about giving her the key of Eva's Diary in order to acknowledge the truth about Beato's Cat Box because Battler, when invited her in the last game, didn't tell her the truth.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Important Note: Rokkenjima from EP 8 is the only time Rokkenjima was an Outversal Structure, since it was showed to encompass the Cat Box and to resist Oblivion's erasure. Rokkenjima from the previous episodes is simply another location of the Human World.

Sea of Fragments
The Sea of Fragments is a place where all the various Fragments about Umineko are contained. All those Fragments (pretty much like the possibilities inside the Cat Box, those fragments are the representation of all the possible realities and outcomes of Umineko, and there an infinite amount of Fragments, of course) are Outversal in size, as the stories, from a Meta point of view (thus fragments in the World of Witches) technically contain the Sea of Oblivion, which is above the Infinite Hierarchy.

Not just that, but it was confirmed to be the upper-variant of the Dephts of Oblivion:

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal"> '''Bernkastel: ".........Don't worry. Just like you, I follow rules as a player. ......Well, shall we begin? .........It's cramped here. Why don't we talk over the sea?" Lambdadelta: "OK. ...Don't get queasy, Battler." Battler: "What do you mean, sea...?" ''' Right after I thought the world had turned pitch black,... I was struck by a floating strange sensation. It must have felt like having the floor drop under you, sending you into a bottomless pit... When I looked, ......I saw that two witches and I...... had been thrown into a pitch black universe. In this space, every direction was covered in an endless darkness, and it felt like an endless expanse filled with countless glittering objects. ......Some people might have linked it to the depths of an ocean where countless glittering fragments drifted. '''Battler: "Uh, ......wh, whoa............" Bernkastel: ".........Didn't she tell you to not get queasy?" Lambdadelta: "If you want the concept of gravity, just create it yourself, okay? ......Come on, calm down and look at us. ......Come on, don't we look like we're just fine?" Lambdadelta: "......Believe that your feet are on the ground and that you're being controlled by gravity. ......If you do that, you'll find your equilibrium." '''

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal"> Y, yes, the two witches are standing normally, as though their feet are planted on a transparent piece of glass. I'm the only one floating about someone in a rapidly plummeting elevator. ......When I saw that they were just fine, I started calming down, figuring that there was no need to be scared. Then, just as Lambdadelta said, I gritted my teeth and kept telling myself there was a place to stand here...and that I had to calm down......

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">'''Battler: "Wh. .........whoa..." Lambdadelta: "Very good, very good. ......What's your name?" Battler: "Ushiromiya Battler. ......Who do I look like?" Lambdadelta: "OK. You mustn't lose your will, emotions, or form. After all, this is the ocean. If you lose your purpose, you'll fall into the depths of eternity and become a scrap of ocean seaweed. Be careful."'''

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">I don't get what Lambdadelta is saying, but I should calm down for the time being. It seems that I gain my equilibrium more the more I calm down. Gradually, the weird floating feeling, like I was falling forever, began to disappear. ......It still felt strange, like trying to stand up straight at the bottom of deep pool, but it was much better than before. Bernkastel: ".........Then let's begin. .........I'll grab a Fragment for solving the riddle of the epitaph......" Bernkastel opened both of her hands. Then, like a planetarium.........all of the Fragments throughout this empty space begin to spin, leaving tails behind them... The expression 'planetarium' might have been even more fitting... '''Battler: "............Hey, what the hell. ..........The piece me is pretty damn smart. There is no room left for me to make theories."  Bernkastel: "Oh, sorry about that. .......You weren't around at this point, so I just controlled your piece for you. ..........Isn't it how nice how smart I made you look like...?" '''

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Lambadelta: "gigglegigglegiggle...! It looks like you'd be wiser to let Bern be the player. ......Why not step down as the player and concentrate being the piece instead?"

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">I joined in this game on October 5th, after the first few murders. That means the piece called "me" was controlled by player, Bernkastel. So, I guess it's possible for Bernkastel's reasoning to be announced through "my" mouth... ......The game I'm watching now is nothing more than a replay of a part that's already ended.

Meta-Mariage Sorceriere

Cathedral
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">  (Outversal) - The Cathedral exists on an even higher plane of existenceand sometimes acts akin to a courtroom. In this place, Battler and Beatrice's marriage took place. A view of the Cathedral: http://i.imgur.com/C7V6Y.png

Meta World
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> Meta World ( Outversal)  - Above the former is the Meta World, a higher parallel reality in which different segments exist.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> In this place, the characters can view characters and lower locations as nothing more than a chessboard, and can control the various pawns (lower world characters) with their own hands. Like i said above the Meta-World encompasses 19 metaphisical realities of the Infinite Layered World of Witches. We know for sure that the Meta-World (and thus, lower worlds and even the Golden Land, since it was stated to be the highest reality of Beato's Conceptual Chessboard) is part of Beato's Conceptual Chessboard because after Beatrice denied the existence of witches as a whole, she denied the realms of witches, and thus the Meta-World was erased. But then, Beatrice regained a body and had to recreate the Chessboard, and because of that, the Meta-World was recreated and Beatrice even mentioned the existence of the Golden Land.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Purgatorio
A place where the events of Rokkenjima can be viewed. Here, dead souls (including those that have been erased from existence or/and destroyed spiritually) are sent.

It is an intermediate state after physical death in which some of those ultimately destined for heaven must first "undergo purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven," holding that "certain offenses can be forgiven in this age, but certain others in the age to come." And that entrance into Heaven requires the "remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven," for which indulgences may be given which remove "either part or all of the temporal punishment due to sin," such as an "unhealthy attachment" to sin. Only those who die in the state of grace but have not yet fulfilled the temporal punishment due to their sin can be in purgatory, and therefore, no one in purgatory will remain forever in that state nor go to hell. The notion of purgatory is associated particularly with the Latin Rite of the Catholic Church (in the Eastern sui juris churches or rites it is a doctrine, though it is not often called "purgatory", but the "final purification" or the "final theosis"). Here, the message bottles of the basis of the mistery created by Sayo would have been presented to Battler by Beatrice. This resembles a room of the Main House situated in Rokkenjima, and also the Main Room of Ange's house in the distant future.

Golden Land
The highest plane of existence on Beatrice's gameboard is the Golden Land, a nigh impenetrable Universe where Beatrice reigns.It is the perfect realm created by Beatrice, and in EP 8. when it was slowly going to be consumed by the Sea of Oblivion and the Theorical Goats, it was showed to exist beyond Oblivion.

After the events of Umineko, the dead souls that were supposed to be consumed into Oblivion, took a Spiritual form, and with the help of Beatrice, opened again the door to the Golden Land, and now they can live happily for all eternity, and Battler can finally be with his lover.

<h3 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">'''End of the Chessboard. The Chessboard is a representation of all the various tales/games contained in the Cat Box, and they take the shape of a Kakera in the Cat Box.'''

Bernkastel's Chessboard
(Outversal) 

Bernkastel's gameboard is a massive structure that dwarfs even Beatrice's own in sheer size. This was a strategic action considering she needed to modify it (that is, Beatrice's gameboard) to a fitting size in the hopes of allowing Lion's almost miraculous existence to be possible.

For instance, Willard, a piece on the gameboard, is capable of lifting all of Beatrice's infinite games/kakeras in his hand whilst manifesting in the Cathedral, a realm inside Bernkastel's Chessboard.

This shows that Bernkastel's Chessboard is FAR bigger than Beato's. Despite that, it is still nothing more than a chessboard that, like the others created by Beato, take the shape of a kakera inside the Cat Box, and within the Cat Box, Bernkastel's Chessboard is just one out of infinite kakeras.

<h2 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Kakera (lower-world, Kakera of the Cat Box)

<h3 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Trough the looking Glass ''Outversal. Countless Worlds, those are all variants of variants of the main world that was meant to represent the Kakera. For example, inside the Cat Box, there are infinite Kakeras, and only one of them contain the truth, and the truth is a possibility out of all the infinite outcomes that are contained within the right Kakera, and it's already hard to tell which is the right Kakera,since there are an infinite amount of them in the Cat Box.''

Those worlds are reflection of the human and nonhuman world, where all the metaphysical distortions that represent the world and contradict the various planes inside that very world. Reversion of the affects of all the aspects of the Shinra Bansho, but what exactly will be mirrored depends on the type of the world (inside the Kakera, infinite worlds) and what was that world meant to represent.

Each world inside the kakera can represent a determinated event or a "what if that happens in the story".

This is why inside a mere Kakera not only can exist the world that actually represent the events of the gameboard, but the existence of a totally not-related world is possible as well. 

Beatrice's Cat Box
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal"> Beatrice's Catbox is noted to consist of endless possibilities. Here, the entire tale of Umineko is estabilished. At the end of EP 8, the tale was fated to vanish in the Dephts of Oblivion, though it resisted the erasure.

This is the peak of Beato's Territory.

Battler even once told to ange that she shouldn't look back when she returns to the Real World, otherwise she'll acknowledge the truth of the Cat Box and that Beatrice and Battler lost their battle (Beato's allies being defeated by Erika's Elite Troup).

This shows that the Golden Land is also just a plane of existence contained within the kakeras of the Cat Box.

<h2 style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Domain of Witches: Outside Umineko's Fragment (Here, all the cat boxes and even Umineko itself is either viewed as a kakera or as a book, sometimes as a chessboard)

Witches's Theater
'' (Outversal). This is a place where the Theatergoing witches watches the actors/narrators reciting various tales. It is a layer above every place where the episode can be visualized as chessboards/crystals. It is a two-layered Metaphysical Reality, thus, it adds 4 spatial dimensions. ''

Featherine's Study
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">'' (Outversal) This is a lower-world version of the City of Books. This is a three layered metaphysical reality. The first layer is the resting room, where Featherine's miko tells her stories, and they debate the story together. The second layer is the library, where all the universes (in forms of books) are stored. The final layer is the scriptorium, where Featherine writes the events of the story. ''

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">From here, Bernkastel's game/chessboard is nothing more than a literal chessboard.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Hell
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Hell is a metaphysical reality where all demons reside. It exist on a much lower plane than Mount Purgatory and Heaven. As we can see here, Hell is a 30-layered reality,each of those layers exist beyond the True Sea of Fragments.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

Mount Purgatory
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">As confirmed in “To Mount Purgatory, Sakutarou!”, Mount Purgatory is just one step below Heaven. It is a 15-layered reality. Each of these 15 layers exist beyond the boundary that separate Hell to the deep sea below Mount Purgatory, thus exist beyond the 30 layers of Hell.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

City of Books
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none">The largest structure shown, the books showcased here are Worlds that dwarfs all lesser realms shown thus far the entire Umineko Franchise sans the City itself where even entities that exist here, who dwarf entire higher dimensional worlds, are likened to butterflies in the midst of ocean trenches.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none">[https://youtu.be/Yck0iSZuMmE?t=2h55m53s There is another layer, where the two mystical doors that will decide Ange's future reside. It is a golden place, around the height of the clouds.]

. There's also the great game boards belonging to Featherine. It is assumed that they are immeasurably superior to the territory of Beatrice.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none">In this place, even Voyagers are viewed as nothing more than small butterflies in the middle of a deep ocean full of books. Just like i said above multiple times, Voyagers, regardless of the fact if they are showing their true manifestation or not, are 1-A by nature alone. The City of Books is said to be a heavenly place, and it is greatly connected to the Senate/Heaven, so it should be above Hell and Purgatory.

Heaven
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> This is the place where all the top-tier detectives/authorities (Willard, Lion, Dlanor and etc) reside. Not just that, but Great Witches from the Senate also live here.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> They exist on a much higher plane the other witches, and they are also “special”.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> They can enter in the City of Book by themselves, even if they don't have an invitation (something that great sorceres/witches like Battler, Ange and Erika weren't able to fully do), they are also regarded as the most powerful types of witches,  sometimes compared even to the Great Aurora herself,   and most importantly, they are the highest level of witches in existence,and even Lambdadelta and Berkanstel have a lot of fear of them. Which means, that they are FAR superior to Voyager Witches, witches that are, by nature alone, 1-A. Overall, Heaven is a metaphysical plane where the top tier authorities AND the Senate reside, and those beings are by FAR the strongest characters in the verse (except the Creator and the Almighty Witch Featherine).

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">It is a 10-layered reality, technically a 12 layered reality as we should take into account that in Umineko, there are two other unnamed layers, which are the Meta-World like layer of Heaven, the second is the layer where the important monuments reside, like the Inquisitor Room, the Senate and the Heavenly Cathedral. This is also the place where Will and Lion now live.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Here, the laws of the Domain of Witches are created, laws that Witches have to respect, no matter how powerful they are or if they are Territorial Lords. This also further proves that this plane is superior to Beato's Domain and the Territory as a whole. [https://youtu.be/Yck0iSZuMmE?t=2h58m5s Beatrice's manifestation in the City of Books once pointed her finger to the sky, pointing her finger to Heaven. Which shows that, Heaven is indeed an higher plane than the City of Books.]

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none">

Maria's Existential Plane
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> This is the place where the Meta-World concept of Maria exist. As the daughter of God and the one who originated everything, she must have lived far before the very existence of Umineko and she has got her own private plane of existence. Since her Meta-World concept takes a form of a small child who gave origins to every concept, including the one of life, it is safe to say that her private plane of existence is FAR beyond Heaven and the City of Books, where heavenly-like creatures can attend to reach (like Voyagers, Senators and etc). And actually, Maria existing in a far higher place than Voyagers and Senators (who can, at best, manifest in the City of Books) makes a lot of sense. Especially because, she was confirmed to be “the one who surpassed heaven”, which include the Senate, the Voyagers, the Inquisitors and etc.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> “  MARIA  The Witch of Origins  , who will live for one thousand years in the future. She holds the motherly magical power to give birth to one (1) from the  Sea of Zero . At a glance, this magical power is frail, but no matter how many times you multiply zero (0), it doesn't become anything but zero. It is said that the one that gives birth could eventually surpass the heavens. She is loyally protected by Beatrice, who understands her true worth, and is in an alliance with Beatrice. Her magic is to make sweets fall from the sky (sprinkle sugar into water cleansed by the sun and say an incantation), magic to make tomorrow's dinner to be cream croquette, magic to make delicious bell peppers, magic to make the weather good when you go outside."

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> Overall, 7  th  Expansion is blatantly saying that she surpassed heaven (thus she must live in a higher plane than Heaven and the City of Boos, since the two are connected, and since heavenly beings can manifest at best in those two places, and Mario surpassing Heaven means her surpassing also heavenly beings), and since Umineko runs on Dante Alighieri's “Divine Commedy” theories, it is safe to say that Maria really does exist beyond Heaven and City of Books. The reason is because Dante Alighieri imaginated a world even beyond Heave, which is the world where the ones who gives birth and origins (Maria, the mother of God) lives.

We can compare Maria to Mary, especially since 7th Expansion directly compared them. From a Meta-World point of view, she was originated from the holy spirit alone (and of course, her mama “Rosa” as well). And guess what, where was Maria born? In a place full of roses, with their petals twine between them, as if to represent the turns of the petals. How is Mary's plane in Dante Alighieri's “Divine Commedy” described as? [http://canuti.wdfiles.com/local--files/canuti/configurazione%20del%20Paradiso.jpg “Candida Rosa” (English traduction from italian: candide rose). “Nove giri di petali”.

Forbidden Layer (Last steps of the Infinite Hierarchy before arriving to God, the closest layers to God's Existence)
Here, we find the Domain of Witches and, as confirmed by Featherine, that is, from her perspective, just a chessboard, and from her realm, she watches even the events that take place in the City of Books.

Beings like the Voyagers travel across this plane during the end of their journey, and Creator Witches are the ones who seek this path as well. Beatrice herself also was reaching Featherine's level of existence.

In Umineko, Featherine was described as a being that “touched the last boundary before reaching the place of God, but she was rejected, so she fell from high altitude and lost her memory”.

Featherine's Room (Last Boundary before God)
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">Though she no longer exists in the realm of the Creator she still exists in an even higher world than the endless hierarchy of the world of witches to which she perceives as a simple gameboard. Featherine's guard may also manifest here.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm" lang="en">

The Creator's Room
'Not only does this realm consist of several layers, but even the lowest of these realms are qualitatively transcendent to that of the infinite dimensional world of witches, and trascendental worlds. The Creator transcends all of this and will reabsorb any entity that surpasses the highest boundary.An unknown number of gods reside here, who are free from all dimensional constraints compared to that of those who reside in the world of witches.

The Creator is boundless, freed from all restrictions, even life, death, and meaning.

Witch
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">According to the game, Witches are human beings who gained power that far exceeds human ones. The male version of the term is “Sorcerer”. According to Alliance of the Golden Witch, the definition of a witch is vague, but the general theory is that at the point when one gains power surpassing the concept that a human can understand, that is a witch. And the world, or possible kakera, in which that can be used freely is called territory. Most witches cannot leave this territory, but Voyagers can (the case of Berkanstel, Lambdadelta and Erika, though despite that, Voyagers are far from the most powerful witches in Umineko).

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">For a deeper view of the term, Witches/Sorcerers are higher world beings, living on a vastly higher plane than all universes and planes of existence of the Human World. They are unbounded by concepts, they are superior to beings who view even concepts like death and nonexistence as meaningless. They are so powerful, that literally the Primordial Forces are meaningless to them. In fact, generally, witches and sorcerers wish to die because pf boredom, however, if they regain interest, they'll revive again, even if they were erased in a place beyond nonexistence and the Infinite Hierarchy. A Witch/Sorcerer might also become a Game Master if she/he wants.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">These are the most common types of Witches: the “Territory-Bounded Witches”, the “Endless Witches”, the “Witches of the Future” (who are said to continue what the Past Witches did and to look brightly at the future that will come), the “Voyagers”, the “Creator Witches/Great Witches”.

Territory Lord
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">Witches/Sorceres who are the creators and rulers of Territory (generally called Gameboard or cat Box) have complete control over that Gameboard and all the Pieces put in the story. When a Territory Lord stop thinking, that Territory will literally vanish, and viceversa.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">Though, there is nothing to prevent the existence of multiple Sorcerers/Witches within the same territory. There can be two Territory Lords in the same Gameboard too (one HAS to be a Voyager though). For example, when a Voyager takes a Fragment containing a certain game, and that game actually intertains the Voyager, the Voyager can also take control of the Gameboard and create a different story that can sometimes interfere with the one created by the actual Territory Lord. Also, when a Territory Lord marry another Witch/Sorcerer, the latter can act as the Territory Lord when the other is absent.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">

Voyagers
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">Witches/Sorcerers that are far superior to Territory Lords and can freely leave the Gameboard and travel beyond it, and can also reach the Infinite Sea of Fragments. For them, concepts such as “fate”, “miracle”, “probability”, “death”, “life” and far more are meaningless and they can even materialize those type of concepts in the form of Kakeras and manipulate those at will. The Voyager are commonly stated to be one step below Creator Witches, and Lambdadelta and Bernkastel aren't even all that powerful compared to other Voyagers in general.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">As higher beings than Territory Lords, Voyagers can enter their territory by entering in a Fragment containing a gameboard and with a plot and characters (pieces). They have the right to enter in a Fragment and interfere/play with the story, and Territory Lords can't say nothing to them. It is not possible to stop a Territory from being hijacked by them. Even higher-world territories that are several infinities more vast than Beatrice's Territory are nothing but mere Fragments that Voyagers can manipulate and/or enter inside those Fragments.

"Voyager"  is the highest status among witches, my creatures totally superior Territorial Lords, standing deck below the Almighty Creator. the Voyagers are not tied to any Territories that are treated as entities of witches and their trends and concepts. This is both a force for full freedom and the weakness of the wanderers, where they have a precarious position without solid supports, as well as unstable values, which increase the risk of process of the soul and becoming a Sea algae fragments. Voyagers are deprived of the limitation is proportional to the desired strength and freedom, moving with infinite levels of hierarchy, leading into the depths where bottom not There is. This case is not about the actual movement on the higher strata, but about personal evolution, including defining the opportunity. What would be endless and forces out to be counterintuitive not possessed witch, she will be limited compared to those who moved deeper. Steps to an abstract hierarchy is "effort", which cannot be ignored, because if the witch stumbles on the stairs, then losing a prop, it will fall into eternal hell abyss. Beyond the infinite Domain hierarchy witches (apparently, Vojadzheru need to make some qualitative jerk to come out of the abyss with endless staircase), is the domain of limitless   God          and forbidden the highest layer. Dostignuvshee his creature can literally become the creator himself, having obtained an absolute omniscience and omnipotence outside all perspectives, but in so doing, it will disappear even without the limitations of our own being (in any form of life, death, existence, non-existence and non-dualism). This is the final point of travel Vojadzherov, but they usually did not seek there, experiencing fear, incomprehensible to anyone but themselves. In one case (it's more like the exception), when the   witch    has reached the Kingdom of God, but in fact only touched the last taboo boundaries, and has retained its identity, while receiving tremendous force. E      ven without the desire of Voyager, it will steadily move farther away from the material world, forfeiting the limits more. Depending on the situation and thoughts of the Voyagers about becoming Creators and being just one step below them, the Voyagers can either      slowly walk the hierarchical levels than actually restricts its power, changing it to greater stability, if they are not afraid of falling on the other hand, they       can quickly dive into the abyss, seemingly without relying on stage, and only interested in nervously about reaching the depths. This reckless path can be used for fast compensation of evolutionary lag. May have a strong influence on the defined age, for example, Centennial, millennial years, witch also became such.

Great Witches
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">An unknown type of supreme witches with an absolute power. The definition of a Great Witches can possibly change based on the fact if we compare “Territory-Bounded Witches” or “Higher Layers Witches”. Generally, “Great Witches” are referred as the witches from Senate and Featherine, the latter is the absolutely most powerful witch who was just one step below Omnpotence, as she touched the last boundary of the Creator Room, but she wasn't powerful enough, so she was rejected and she fell from the Creator's room, eventually losing her memory with time.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">「遥か上層の、霞んで見えないくらいに上層の大魔女は、もはや神や造物主と同じ存在です. ……そんな連中から見れば、私たちの物語なんて、果たして一冊にまとめる価値があるかどうか. ””At the distant upper layer, which is too hazy that it is completely invisible for us, are the Great Witches of Higher Order, who are existences nearly identical to Gods or Creators... From perspectives of the likes of them, i wonder if our story altogether can be considered as a single book or not.”

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal" lang="en">

The Creator
The Creator is boundless, freed from all restrictions,  even  life, death, and meaning. Anyone who actually becomes part of the Creator itself is completely erased, due to loss of all restrictions, including life, death, and meaning. The Creator are omnipotent and almighty....”creatures” who have no limit, and they have the right to judge Witches and Humans when they reach the end of their journey. Speaking of Creation, as stated in Chiru, “perhaps the Witch of Origins, Maria, is a chosen girl, bound to become a creator...”

Mariage Sorceriere
An alliance of Witches founded by Lady Maria to battles black witches (her mother Rosa Ushiromiya and EVA-Beatrice). As stated in EP 7, “Mariage Sorceriere” is not simply the name of a group but rather a universe that was born from nothingness when Maria realized who she really is. At this state however, the universe was still only a Big Bang. Only the meeting between her and Beatrice turned it into a real universe, and was later expanded infinetely by Beatrice, who turned it infinite in both scope and size. Because of that, Mariage Sorceriere becomes something similiar to Beatrice's Cat Box: Mariage Sorceriere is the “Magical Comprendium” created by Maria and Beatrice, where endless parallel worlds on a higher plane are generated.

Winchester M-1894
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">The favorite weapon of the Ushiromiya family members. It is a conceptual weapon which can shoot normal bullets and magical bullets, the latter are designed to kill fantasy/anti-fantasy beings.

Golden Butterfly Brooch
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">An artifact made by Beatrice that mediates relationships of opposite sex and brings the lovers together.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

Piece/Koma
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">When Meta-Worlds being start to get bored, they elaborate complex games to play against another Meta-World being. We can compare that game to a chessboard. Of course, a chessboard can't exist if the main elements aren't acknowledged. I mean, you can't play chess unless you have a fondumental thing: Pieces. Meta-Worlds beings create pieces out of thin air and place those pieces in the chessboard, and the Meta-World beings, as the actual players, have the right to control or sacrifice their pieces. The Pieces inside the chessboard are generally lower manifestations of the higher world beings, however, in Umineko, those Pieces are completely different characters with their own will (even though their will is actually something that was created by the players in the Meta-World). Even though it may seem stupid at first, those “games” are actually something complex and tragic: Pieces are, in fact, ACTUAL beings, each with their own backstory, memories, emotions and ideas. They are just like us: they are humans that live in the Planet Earth..little do they know though, that beyond their planet and the universe, there an infinite amount of higher spiritual worlds, and beings from those worlds actually control the fate of those pieces. In Umineko, that concept is a very clear thing, especially when, in the anime or in the VN, we see Beatrice's roulette that starts spinning..and then choose the sacrifices. And believe me, those pieces won't get easy deaths, as their face will generally be torn apart and etc. However, after the first game, the pieces realize that they are simply inside a gameboard, and thus they are aware of what their fate will be. After the first game, pieces will actually start to interact more with higher-worlds beings, especially Shannon and Kanon, two characters that will interact a lot with Beatrice. Anyway, back to topic, even if they are controlled by the higher-worlds beings, they are pretty powerful on their own, ranging from Superhuman level to Moon level, and then, beings like Beatrice, Lady Maria, Endless Sorcerer Battler, Eva-Batrice, Willard, Lion Ushiromiya and Virgilia, at their peak, are Hyperversal busters with TONS of hax. As Pieces, their death in the gameboard has no impact on the game, considering that when a new one starts, they will be revived again, or they'll simply maintin their Meta-World existence. However, it gets more complicated when their Meta-World selves die. The death of their Meta-World selves would result in the death of their Pieces/Lower Worlds version across all realities of all lower worlds. Because it is Game Master's privileges any piece in if they see it fits, this would change a Gameboard's events entirely. <p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

City of Books
Featherine Augustus Aurora's “territory”. She created it, she owns it, she has absolute control over everything in this place. It appears as a giant library, with massive shelves holding countless books picked by Featherine herself. As stated by Bernkastel, each book contains a different world, similar to Umineko. The city itself is protected by a holy barrier. Only a witch of the Senate may enter, and outsiders may only enter if they are invited.

In Twilight of the Golden Witch, the city holds the final battle between Bernkastel and Lambdadelta. Lambdadelta and Featherine, and Bernkastel and Battler + Ange. Two random shelves alone have enough books and heights to vastly surpass all books and shelves of human world (not Beato's territory's one) and there are more to come.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm">

"However, the number of books and the height of these selves vastly surpassed all of those existed in the world of humans.”

“If the height is measure of greatness, ....then the gods must surely be giants taller than mountains.”

“This place appeared to be a library big enough and grand enough for such gods.”

<p style="margin-right: 1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm">Even shelves look mastodontic compared to Voyagers (loli form), Territorial Lords and Witches.

"However, the shelves holding them stood like the walls of a valley..... or like a deep ocean trench.”

“So, ....Ange and the others looked like little more than a few small butterflies who had wandered into this vast library.”

“....Like miniscule deep-sea fish swimming about all alone in an ocean pit.”

“'Swin' seemed a better way to describe what they are doing than 'fly' would have."

<p style="margin-right: 1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm">An overview of City of Books, each book is a Fragment of the Sea (but mostly shown events of a "play"). The "emerald green lights" (which are countless Bern's kitties) and how pathetic is entire Umineko (both Fragment and Territory) to Witches above Territory Lord, this was already covered, though. How Erika is wondering and speculating if their "tale" truly worth more than a single book.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm">

"The City of Books.”

“The bookshelves on either side of this canyon are skyscrapers.”

“If I think of those emerald green lights flowing beneath us as headlights of a highway, then this does really seems like a city of books.”

“ANGE-Beatrice: Those things aren't just books, are they?”

Furudo Erika: "That's right. Each volume is packed with an ensemble play. .....They look like books from here, but if you open one up, you'll find a whole world inside."

ANGE-Beatrice: "So, even our long tale is only one of these.”

Furudo Erika: "Great witches who live on a far, far higher plane than we do hardly any different from a Creator or God..... From their perspective, our little tale is worth little more than a single book, if that."

<p style="margin-right: 1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm">More on the size of City of Books.

The word "city" was no exaggeration.

And, it was filled with the green, glowing eyes of Bernkastel's countless cat familiars.

Trying to count them would be almost as crazy as counting all the fish in the ocean.

Some books stored in the City of Books is also written (created) by other Witches.

If they're writing down an entire world in a single volume, ......then my life probably isn't worth a single line.

Again on how big is City of Book's bookshelves.

Ange listlessly gazed down from the balcony with no handrail, ....down into the darkness of the abyss at the bottom of bookshelf ravine...no, the gap between the bookshelf skyscrapers.

The Noble City of Carefully Selected Books/City of Books and Featherine as its creator and ruler.

Meta-Virgilla: ".....I have heard of it. .....They say it's a place where great witches, travelers of the sea, store countless Fragments in the forms of books."

Meta-Ronove: "Indeed, The Great Witch of Theatergoing, Drama and Spectating's Noble City of Carefully Selected Books."

Beatrice: "So, the Great Lady of Aurora is the ruler of City of Books. Truly a suitable place for her."

<p style="margin-right: 1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm">

<p style="margin-right: 1cm; margin-bottom: 0cm">A"room" of the City was large enough to hold two domed baseball stadiums (of the higher world, of course) in it.

It was large enough that you could probably fit two domes baseball stadiums in it, if you tried.

Even so, in this city, they were called 'rooms'.

Fragment/Kakera
A common term of the When They Cry series. They are fragments of light that represents infinite parallel universes that come into various shapes and forms (like books or crystals). They can be used for different tasks, such as dimensional/mutliversal travel and many other things.

True Sea of Fragments.
This is basically the background of the Infinite Hierarchy. We could also say that it's like the “underside of the Infinite Hierarchy”. Just like there is an Underside for the gameboard, we could also think that the Infinite Hierarchy has an opposite background that act differently. And, just like the Gameboard and its Underside, the underisde of the Infinite Hierarchy (True Sea of Fragments) is beyond the aforementioned, as the True Sea of Fragments exist beyond the Territory Sea of Fragments, which is already beyond the concept of spatial dimensions. Why am i saying that the True Sea of Frgaments acts like the underside of the Infinite Hierarchy? Simply because both are infinite-sized, and and just like in the Infinite Hierarchy, an infinite amount of “Totality Kakeras” reside; some of them can be 1-A in size (like Umineko), some 1-B (like TRIanthology and Higurashi), some are barely High 1-C (Higanbana), others can also simply be of the size od a single universe at best (like Rose Gun Days).

Infinite Hierarchy
When they Cry's cosmology has  infinite higher worlds    , being analogued to an   an infinite ladder   that has   infinite steps   (also called   "endeavors"   ) that leads to the bottomless abyss, or rather the Infinite Hierarchical abyss (a similiar concept to that of Ein Sof). The Witches are higher existences than humans and the higher they )  walk on that ladder and the more they seek freedom and power  , the more they freed from restrictions proportionally.   Humans   are   the lowest existences   on that hierarchy, tied and tossed around by fate and at the lowest “endeavors”. In the middle there are the Witches ,   creators of fate and its players   , they   accepted     limitations   and   restrictions   so   that     they   will not lose the ground on their foot (   with     Lambdadelta somewhere   on   that "middle"   ). The  ultimate beings   that stand at the top (     Brahman     ) of the infinite hierarchical abyss (even beyond the hierarchy and beyond all the metaphisical and perfect worlds created by them or by Great Witches of nearly Creator's level, like Heaven and the City of Books) are   the Creator  , the Gods and Creator Witches, who   freed from infinity and all restrictions   , they boundless and had survived even unboundness itself, they are absolute, omnipotent, omniscient, creators and rulers of all Creation.

Golden Land and Meta-World
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">The Golden Land is the highest reality of Beato's territory. It is an higher-abstract metaphysical universe that exists beyond the very Realm of Witches. This world is Beato's private and form here, she can view all the lower-worlds as a chessboard, and she can interact or messing with it at will. From here, one can enter in the Gameboard and travel anywhere inside Beato's territory at will. It is often described as the absolute afterlife, where everyone could be happy for all eternity.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">The Meta-World is one of the most important realities of the Realm of Witches. It looks like Rokkenjima at first, but as revealed by Tsubasa it is much vaster than that. This world is where every Meta-Being reside, and it is known for encompassing several metaphysical worlds outside Umineko's territory. In this world, all, all lower-worlds can be viewed as a Chessboard, or they can manifest here in the form of lower-world crystals (crystals that ONLY contain the events/EPs inside Beato's Cat Box. The Lower-World crystals are stored in the Sea of Fragment (lower-version)).In this world, concept are meaningless to Meta-Beings (even existence, death, life and non-existence). If they stop thinking, they will die and then would be erased from existence, but that doesn't matter, it is simply a matter of interest and concern to them. Not even a weapon that negates all concepts upon summong can actually affect Meta-Beings in any way. Furthemore, they can create concepts by simply thinking (for example, Battler created the concept of gravity with just a thought),and they are so powerful that a single action of them in this word can become reality of endless other worlds.

The Seas
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">There are tree type of seas that we saw during the entire game, which are either collections of endless fragments or something else entirely, each has their own properties and unique nature. These are the tree types of Seas: Sea of Internet, Sea of Zero, Sea of Nothingness (technically, there is also the Sea of Fragments..but i think we already talked about that sea).

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

====Sea of Internet: ''The Infinite Sea that was briefly mentioned to be part of future Cat-Boxes (1986 onward), this Sea is where endless tales that have sprung from endless delusions are restored. Everyone wanted “Rokkenjima's Massacre” tale to be a tragedy, and so they started to create tales borned from the most random opinions. Those tales are all contained in the Cat-Box of the future, which is governed by Eva-Beatrice (who's the Territory Lord). In “Alliance of the Golden Witch” and “Twilight of the Golden Witch”, those tales came into the form of Goat Servants. “Theory Goats” is the name given to the Goats that personify those random opinions.''==== <p style="font-weight: normal">

====Sea of Zero: '' This sea is the end and the origin of everything. This applies to all things, even concepts, realities, spiritual planes, higher-layers, different realities, impossibilities and possibilities of the Cat Box, miracles and EVERYTHING. As all things start from “zero” (zero + anything= zero), but also end with it (zero x anything = zero). No one can control and manipulate this Sea, not even Beato, Bern or Lambda. No one, except Lady MARIA and the Creator Witches. Maria, evem as a human, was able to create something out of the Sea of Zero, which is something that Beatrice (as a witch) could have only dreamed of. This makes Maria a Creator Witch, a similiar Witch to Featherine and easily a stronger Witch than the ones from the Senate and the Great Witches. As explained by Beato, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XuvUrA6ZnbI “obtaining 1 is quite easy. But giving birth to 1 from 0 is extremely difficult”]. This is basically Origin Manipulation. ''==== <p style="font-weight: normal"> ===='Sea of Nothingness: ' The infinetely vast sea that spans across all creations. It is located beyond the very Infinite Hierarchy, making it a place beyond the concept of spatial dimensions. While somewhat similiar to the “Sea of Zero”, at the same time, it is very different. This is a hellish sea where nothing exist, and this is where all the higher-world beings meet their death. This is a relative term due to any Territory Lord-class being can travel and access this place freely or bring beings back to reality. Also, if a person (inside the Sea of Oblivion) still keep thinking, he/she'll remain intact regardless. Hence, true death doesn't exist in Umineko. Unless a Meta-World being is too broken and his/her mind is too beyond than it will take an untold quantity of time for him/her to remember his/her form. This sea also acts as a “Torture Prison” to the ones who for the ones who oppose the Senate or the Pieces who failed the Voyagers. '====

Theory Goats
They are personifications and Fragments of the future catbox, their number is correspond to the endless and infinite possibilities within the catbox, meaning there are effectively infinite of these things, adding quantum mechanic and the accumulation of 12 years would rise their number to even a higher level of infinity (1, 2, 3)

Theory Goats destroy their Fragment and coming into existence. (1, 2)

Theory Goats' nature as manifestation of future delusions of the future catbox, in the future world, as any and all interpretations can and do exist, without denying these Goats, they will still remain indefinitely (1, 2, 3, 4)

Lambdadelta's Fan Club
'' We also get to know Lambda's friends, very terrifying beings, so terrifying, that even Bernkastel gets very scared to just hearing their name, and she was shaking so much that her hand wasn't even able to hold the phone. This fanclub of Lambda is large enough to be a country of the Sea. Unlike Bernkastel, who kept to herself, Lambdadelta has many friends. ''

Her friends and patrons were either Territory Lords of great influence that came from all over the place, or else monsters that had become legends in their own lifetimes.

In all seriousness, her so-called 'fan club' has enough size and influence that it could have suddenly declared itself a seperate country in the sea of Fragments without anyone being overly surprised.

"....We don't want that either. I came here to fight you, but I'm no match for Lady Lambdadelta's friends."

Umineko's Concepts/Importance
 Unlike all the other stories of “When They Cry”, and unlike pretty much every verse (fragment) contained in the True Sea of Fragments, '' Umineko is special. That's why despite the fact that the story was created by a being that was supposed to be limited to his own territory, it took the attention of every higher-order being. Sayo Yusada (the person who is Beatrice, Shannon, Kanon and Lion Ushiromiya at the same time, OMG too many spoilers XD) understood the principal concept that was created by the Holy Spirit (“Without love, it cannot be seen”). Because of that, Sayo himself/herself became a special being..so special, that Voyagers are nothing compared to that (and Bernkastel herself admitted that if Beato would have understand that, not even Bern and Lambda as a team would have been able to actually stand a chance against Beatrice, and that is something that the Great Witch Featherine acknowledged), and so special that Beatrice, even as a beginner, already surpassed the witches and was quickly approaching Featherine's level of existence... ''

We could say that it is a “blessed” story. We could actually compare Umineko to our world: we humans can either believe in God or not, but we can't actually give a true answer. We simply can't. Sure, the Big Bang is confirmed that it created the universe, however at the same time we could ask, how and why did it happened? The universe began as a very hot, small and dense superforce, which is essentially the mix of the four fundamental forces. But who or what created those forces?

Why? Why did he/it/she created those in order ti create that condensated hot superforce? Hm, maybe the four fundamental forces already existed as fundamental concepts. But what if again, someone or something created those forces? We don't know nothing. And these are words coming from a guy that doesn't believe in God, but the reasons are others. However, we can say for sure that we don't have a clue.

But in Umineko, we actually have a clue about what is actually going on. Just like in the Human World (of Umineko) every story and event take place, every emotion that the pieces put inside the Gameboard feel, every sign of ignorance of the people of that world (including the fact that they don't know if supernatural entities exist or not (granted, if humans can actually understand what is going on and understand the very concept of the story they were put in, they'll trascend Human's domain and reach the Spiritual Worlds)); in the World of Gods simple concepts and theories created by humans are trascended, even the very higher-dimensional theories (like M- Theory or others theories, that is, those theories have to be mentioned in a story so that we can know that those theories actually exist in that story) are nothing but things like toys to Witches and Gods. Overall, the difference between Umineko and our world is that we do know that something above us actually exist. But speaking about the Love thing: because Beato understood that love is the reason of everything, love IS everything,  and because love was created by “The Creator”, the whole Umineko story took a religious-like explanation. In fact, we could compare Umineko tothe story written by the Italian writer “Dante Alighieri”, “La Divina Commedia” (In english, “The Divine Commedy”). Beato can in fact be assumed to as the “Beatrice” of “La Divina Commedia”, the one who completely understood the concept of love and is ready to teach Dante how to love. Dante could be assumed as Battler, the ignorant fool in search of true love who, despite the fact that he had the reason beofre his eyes from the very moment, ignored that and instead mocked the Endless Witch Beatrice, who simply wanted him to understand how much she loved him.

'' Not to mention that in the story of Umineko, Meta-Worlds like “The Realm of Hell” exist, which is where all the various demons and pillars live, resembling the “Divine Commedy”'s hell. Then of course, Heaven, Hell and Purgatory do exist, but those are Metaphysical worlds beyond the Realm of Witches, those place were created by “The Creator” in order to place the living and the death in one of these places after the judgement, and depending of what sins the being commited, he/she'll either be placed in Hell or Purgatory, but if the being manages to become perfect, he/she'll attend Heaven. But enough of that, let's actually talk about the two biggest misteries of Umineko, the ones that actually allowed Umineko to exist in the first place: Maria and the Magic of Origins. ''

Magic of Origins
'' The most powerful type of magic in Umineko. It surpasses, by far, Voyagers's magic, which not only allows them to travel between Fragments and even to worlds beyond the realm of Witches, like the Dephts of Oblivion and etc; but also allow them to be the fundamental laws of the world (Read below). '' The Magic of Origins is the same magic that created everything within the verse in every point in time and every story (each story takes place in the Human World, but that also mean that it created even the worlds beyond the Gameboard since many Game Masters are actually higher-order beings, like Hanyu and Sayo). http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Origin_Manipulation

^This can also show you how actually powerful the manipulation of origins is.

Lady Maria Ushiromiya/The blessed child/Child of God/The Creator/Child of the Holy Spirit/The one who gave birth/Enchanter
Lady Maria is the child of Rosa Ushiromiya and an unknown father. And exactly because of that, since the very moment of her conception, Maria would have become the greatest Creator in all of existence. You see, in Umineko, is actually impossible to be born just from a single entity. Unless of course an higher-order being created you and put you in the story as a piece, but that is a different argument.

That is because, like i said, we can compare Umineko to our world. In our world, if you are born from a “single entity alone” it is obvious that you were simply born from a female and a male but then something happened and one of the two isn't part of the family anymore. And that is the same thing in Umineko: in the Human World, that is what obviously happened. That is, because humans don't know that conceptually, something much intriguing happened: Maria hasn't a father. In the Realm of Witches, it was never acknowledged the fact that Rosa had sexual rapports with a man, and in addition, it is conceptually explained by Maria (which is something that even Willard acknowledges, a great angel of heaven who exist beyond dimensional limitations) that she was only born from her mother alone, along with the Holy Spirit. That's right, the Holy Spirit is the one who gave birth to Maria. Even before her birth, The Creator needed a child that would have become the Messiah, so that everyone will understand that love is the only fundamental concept. And that child was destined to be Maria, Maria was the chosen one. In addition, from a religious point of view,from non-existence she destroyed the primordial sea and created the world, and later gave life to the first lifeforms (prokaryotes) and then dinasours.

Talking about that later, now i'm gonna say another thing. We could say that Maria inherited her Magic from her mother, since from Witches's point of view (which is pretty much absolute, since it is acknowledged not only by Witches, but also by the beings from heaven like Willard and Dlanor), Rosa gave birth to Maria, she created Maria from nothing. And this is where the thing get more complicated: From a religious point of view, which technically isn't wrong in this one, Maria may be Jesus's mother, Mary (who is technically called Maria). Maria, the one who gave birth, the one who created Jesus with the Holy Spirit, the one from which origins come from.

The one blessed by God, the one destined to create the “perfect” Jesus so that love will have been diffused all over the world. The one that from her ventre originated Jesus. Why is it safe to say that Maria is actually the mother of Jesus, Mary? [https://mangapark.me/manga/umineko-no-naku-koro-ni-chiru-episode-7-requiem-of-the-golden-witch/s1/c011 Because the two were actually compared, Ryukinshi compared Maria Ushiromiya to Mary. ]

This just shows Maria's potential. And not only that, she can also use a limited version of The Creator's magic, but also because she is compared to The Creator, it is confirmed many times that she'll become the greatest creator in all of Umineko many times (read Maria's descriptions above),it is confirmed that Maria is one with the Holy Spirit and received powers from it, she also gave origin to everything, she is also the blessed child who was born from her mother alone, from Witches's point of view she's the only one who was born with God by her side, she is destined to become the Ultimate Creator and to her, the difference between one and infinity are same thing as the difference between existence and nonexistence (and Maria holds absolute control over one and infinity/existence and nonexistence), and last but not least, even as a freacking human, she used the Magic or Origins to gave birth to Sakutarou, and that surprised Beatrice, since Maria (as a human) has done something that a lot of witches could just dream of. And as an Apprentice, her Magic of Origins is FAR FAR stronger.

Another thing is that Beatrice confirmed that in the future, Mario will become a Great Witch, which could make Maria potentially nearly as powerful as Featherine, since the latter is also a Great Witch/Creator Witch. But that doesn't really matter, since Maria is already a Creator Witch and was said to be the greatest one (though despite that statement, Featherine is still obviously superior, after all, she's still the only one that touched the last boundary before becoming God).

Not to mention that, Beatrice is a witch, but was born from two humans. Even Bern and Lambda were born from humans too. Bern is just the subconscious self that Rika created in order to travel in the Sea of Fragments and find a kakera where Rika can actually live a happy life. Maria on the other hand is special..

<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">I'm going to summarize the most important things and i'll try to make this as simple as i can.

Background
Sayo was the child whom Kinzo gave to Natsuhi Ushiromiya to raise as her own, in attempt to atone for his sin by making a child a proper member of Ushiromiya family and giving it a happy life. However, Natsuhi rejected the child and was left guilt-ridden when the child fell off the cliff along with another servant nineteen years ago. Unknown to Natsuhi and Kinzo, the child survived the incident thanks to Genji and Nanjo. According to Nanjo the child was gravely injured, with their sexual organs badly mutilated. After the accident, Genji decided to keep the child's survival in secret to prevent another incestuous advance by Kinzo. To ensure that child wouldn't be found out easily, Genji lied about Sayo's age, lowering it by three years. Because of Sayo's feebleness and underdevelopment it was easy to fake. Genji personally arranged Sayo's hiring, hoping to reveal the truth if a good opportunity presented itself. He believed that if Kinzo truly felt affection as a parent, he would notice traces of the deceased mother and daughter in the child and Kinzo and Sayo would be able to develop a parent-child relationship without knowledge of truth. Sayo was initially nervous with life on Rokkenjima, which was completely different from the life in Fukuin House and everything was new and unfamiliar. As the youngest servant to work for the Ushiromiya family, Sayo was the only one who missed work in order to go to school. Though Natsuhi and Krauss always thought there was something odd about it, questioning Kinzo, Fukuin House and Genji didn't shed any light on this. Servants also did not welcome the special treatment Sayo was given and often complained about it and even gave her the nickname "Yasu", which she despised. Because of Sayo's age and sloppiness, they grew to dislike Sayo even more, while Sayo continued to put effort into whatever work was given. However, older servants were annoyed by how often they had to help Sayo with chores because her young age didn't allow the young servant to do most things independently. However, these problems were viewed by Sayo as tests from God to help grow into a wonderful person someday. It is mentioned that aside from Shannon, Sayo seemed to be in good relationship with the House Director, who played with and taught Sayo about things that cannot be seen with one's eyes, but with eyes of the heart. This way Sayo learned how to recognise beings not of this world at the Fukuin House and often spent free time in isolated rooms dreaming. Shannon was, for Sayo, the “perfect servant”, a person who could do everything perfectly and at the same time wouldn't judge the ones who weren't as good as her. Sayo's mission was to become a perfect, friendly and smart servant as Shannon was! Basing on Kumasawa's stories of Beatrice's ghost and evil spirits of Rokkenjima, the young servant created gave form to a spirit, the first Beatrice (later known as demon Gaap). When Sayo's sloppiness resulted in incidents like losing keys or cleaning implements, the servant blamed it on Gaap's magic. Sayo and the prototype Beatrice became friends over the small broom which Beatrice hid in order to prank Sayo. Yet even after getting used to life on Rokkenjima, Sayo didn't manage to make a single human friend. To help avoid the witch's pranks, Kumasawa gave Sayo a spiderweb charm (the kite strings) and taught Sayo a method to avoid losing things ('take them home' charm). Kumasawa's charms helped Sayo deal with forgetfulness and regain confidence. As time progressed, the young servant formed a relationship with Kumasawa and started borrowing mystery novels from her. Sayo found discussions and theorizing as the most entertaining part of mystery novels. While reading "And Then There Were None" Sayo ended up seeing mystery novels as a game between humans and witches. After previous servants left, Sayo decided to make a good impression on new servants and teach them the ropes, being the more experienced one. However, the new servants were already warned about Sayo's carelessness and they didn't take Sayo seriously. Because of that Sayo played a prank on the new servants, claiming that the behavior was the result of being possessed by Beatrice, in hopes that they would begin listening to Sayo. Initially they didn't believe but after some time they started admitting that something inhuman existed on this island, as pranks became harder to explain. ..And then, everything changed the day Sayo's imaginary (yet real) friend pranked the new servants. That day, Sayo saw something she never realized about magic. That it was amazing, and it actually existed. Protoype Beatrice (possessing Sayo), made they key dance in order to prank the new servants, and Sayo felt so..amazing. That very night, before going to bed (Shannon and Sayo share the same room), Sayo told her best friend that she was done with playing the part of a servant: Sayo needed to become a witch. Sayo told her that she wasn't able to hold the excitement she had for experiencing magic. She told her that Shannon was her idol, always. A perfect being, who can play and be kind to anyone, and at the same time carry out any task in the Ushiromiya mansion both flawlessly and gracefully. Shannon was the target Sayo longed to reach..Shannon tells her that it's ok, that perseverance prevails everything, and that they'll both attend to become wonderful servants together.. However, Sayo tells her to stop with that. She tells her, that she was never meant to be a servant, and that she wants to become a witch. Shannon was surprised and confused. She asks Sayo what does she mean by witch. Sayo tells her what happened, and then tells her that the world of magic was so thrilling...she wanted to experience that feeling again. She wanted to know more about witches. She wanted to expore the world of witches. She tells Shannon that it's as if she was living in a world of darkness all her life and though that the world was eternal darkness and sadness, but then she finally learned what light was and saw the world for the first time...It was joy..then, Sayo felt as along with the sensation, a fragment of the magic she used before was still there. She used that, and create a bright, golden light to lit up the dark room. Sayo told her that now that she understood how amazing and fun that can be, she doesn't want to go back being a human. While Shannon was telling her to wait and stay with her, Sayo wasnt hearing, and she escaped from the Human World, reaching a planetarium starry sky: the Sea of Fragments.

Prototype Beatrice appeared, and Sayo told her that she wanted to modify that world. Sayo's world was modified and she took on the name of the Golden Witch, the ruler of Rokkenjima's night, leaving previous Beatrice nameless for a while. Sayo's own self was erased from Shannon's memories, making the supposed two-person into single-person room and Beato took the form of a witch in white dress. in accordance with rumors of Beatrice's ghost, the opposite of Gaap's appearance.

From that moment, Sayo (Beatrice) and Prototype Beatrice (now nameless, will then take the name of Gaap, though her body already is a copy of Gaap) start to discuss about “how would Beatrice look like”; “what kind of powers does she have”; “what kind of weakness would she have” and etc.

As a conclusion, Sayo takes the permanent look of Clair, her weakness are spider webs and the sacred mirror (which takes away magical powers) and her powers are the manipulations of various things, each related to the colour golden (golden butterflies and many others).

Sayo, all excited, start to think a bit about Shannon..after all, Sayo was Shannon's only close friend as well. She remembers all the fun she had with Shannon, all the comfortable and important days Sayo shared with her. Because of that, Sayo decides to erase herself the “Sayo” that once was a servant and Nastuhi's child, in order to not make Shannon suffer. Sayo transformed the room in a single room (thus changing the position of the bed, wardrobe and etc), and she erased Shannon's memories of Sayo. Despite that, Shannon still feel as her bed shouldn't be there, and she feels as someone just..left.

However (huge spoiler)..in reality, that “Shannon” didn't even exist. The Shannon Sayo was talking to before becoming Beatrice..was just her imaginary friend. Shannon...didn't exist. However, when Sayo modified her world, remembering all the fun she had with her imaginary and perfect friend, she gave form to Shannon and implented her memories into Shannon's mind, and now, Shannon has an actual body, and most importantly, she became an alternate persona of Sayo.

Because Sayo implented her memories in Shannon's mind, Shannon became the child who once was Sayo: Shannon has to go to school every day, and then goes to the Ushiromiya's mansion and works, and if possible, also to talk to Kumasawa about other mistery novels.

Shannon..who once was Sayo's perfect imaginary friend..literally became Sayo.

“I am.... Shannon. A lonely servant... I mess up from time to time..but i want to become a kind servent whom everyone loves.....Goodnight, me.”

This is how Shannon, Beatrice (Incomplete) and Gaap were created.
<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0cm"> Now let's see how Kanon was created. <p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0cm"> So, Kanon was created because of Shannon's “incomplete” universe. <p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0cm"> Thus, we have to analyze what happened after that night.  AHEM 

As time progressed Shannon gained respect from the newer servants. Due to a relationship with Battler and other children, Sayo began to pay more attention to the real world, giving up magic. Few times a year, Shannon and Battler met to discuss mystery novels they read and the motive behind them. Both of them strongly believed that only a heart can move people to commit a murder. At some point these discussions became an excuse for them meeting alone. On the conference of 1980 Battler made a careless promise, which Shannon took seriously. He promised to “come with a white horse and rescue his princess (Sayo/Shannon) from that island”.

This promise made Shannon think carefully about the future and consider not just quitting work as a servant on Rokkenjima, but also confessing to Battler and sharing a life with him.

After Asumu's death and Rudolf's remarriage in 1981 to Kyrie Sumadera, Battler left the family due to a quarrel with his father and didn't participate in the next family meeting. Shannon (Sayo) considered it a trial of love. Battler didn't participate the family meeting in 1982 either, and jokes by the siblings hurt Shannon even more. She started to believe that the trial must be an eternal torture and couldn't believe that Battler may have forgotten Shannon, even after having such a nightmare. The family conference in 1983 became the most influential. Battler gave Kyrie several letters addressed to all the siblings, leaving out Shannon. That event broke Shannon's heart.

Shannon "visited" Beatrice, who believed that "the Root of Love" would kill Shannon. As a result, Sayo (Beatrice) transferred Shannon's love for Battler to herself, sealing those feelings deep inside the heart. Sayo (Beatrice) gained a form of Battler's ideal woman (thus becoming “Complete Beatrice”, or basically the girl we all know about now) and learned love in exchange of pain. Sayo promised to create a little brother for Shannon so that she would not be lonely and will keep Battler off her mind. The next morning Kanon started working as one of the rare servants who serves Kinzo directly, like Genji.

In April of 1984 the portrait of the Golden Witch and the epitaph, that doesn't exist in Lion's world, were displayed. The epitaph was a message, which only Genji could understand. It is implied that Kinzo, who was facing his last years, already realised that his child Lion is still alive. Afterwards Genji told Shannon and Kanon what was Kinzo's 'beloved hometown', giving Sayo a hint. Once the epitaph was solved, the truth about Sayo's birth was revealed to the young servant. Even after being chosen as the successor to the Ushiromiya family, Sayo decided that Krauss should become the successor and nothing has to change. Sayo only kept Beatrice's dress, the key to the VIP Room, and ten tons of gold. On November 29th, 1984 Sayo became the true Golden Witch Beatrice.

This is how Kanon and Beatrice (Complete) were created.
Now, let's talk about Lion. Who is he? In truth, Lion is actually Kinzo's child by his daughter, Beatrice, who in turn was the daughter Kinzo had by his mistress, Beatrice Castiglioni. He is the child whom Natsuhi Ushiromiya could abandon in 1968 and could only exist as himself under the circumstances that Natsuhi accepted the child that Kinzo had given her to raise in order to prove her capabilities as a mother, which only has a 1/2,578,917 chance of happening. Because Lion didn't have to suffer from Natsuhi's behaviors (thus in turn becoming Sayo in all the other fragments), Beatrice (Golden Witch) doesn't exist in this fragment, creating an alternate set of events to occur on Rokkenjima in 1986. He grew up receiving the same love Jessica was given by her parents. For most of his life, he believed that he was the son of Krauss and Natsuhi and the older brother of Jessica. At an early age it was made clear that he was already adored by Kinzo and because of it he was chosen to be the next head. He was unaware of the fact that Krauss' siblings envied him for it, though they did respect him to a certain degree. During his high school years, he lived up to his parents' expectations as being an excellent student, the Student Council President and even captain of the badminton team. Aside from being viewed by the rest of the family as still being too young (Lion is 19, and will become head of the family after turning 20), Lion is more suited to be the next head than anyone else. Naturally, Lion's many achievements put quite a bit of pressure on Jessica, and they tend to argue as a result.

Lion is the last hope of Beatrice, the one who won't suffer everything Beatrice suffered, the miracle, the "perfect man". 'Basically, Lion is an alternate version of Sayo. He only exist in a fragment that has 1/2,578,917 chance of happening. In this fragment, Natsuhi accepted the child Kinzo gave her. That also mean that Beatrice doesn't exist in this fragment, because everything that happened in the other fragments didn't happen in this one, and Lion (Sayo) never experienced magic.'

Humans vs Witches! Science or Fantasy?
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">  So, as i explained many times now, in the Human World not everything is saw the same way as in the Domain of Witches. Now i'm going to make a list of everything that is saw as different, and i'm going to explain what's the difference. Of course, it should be noted that the truth of the Domain of Witches is absolute, the right one will always be the Domain of Witches.

Creation of the universe.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">  Human's point of view: The big bang created everything. "The Big Bang is the cosmological model of the universe, originally conceived to describe its origins, that is best supported by all cosmological observations. The essential idea is that the universe has expanded from a primordial hot and dense initial condition at some finite time in the past and continues to expand to this day. Observational evidence for the expansion of the universe came first from Edwin Hubble's 1929 discovery that galactic distances are proportional to their redshifts. Since the universe is seen to be expanding today, theoretical cosmologists can make detailed predictions of the universe's denser and hotter past. A major feature of Big Bang cosmology is its prediction of the conditions of an early universe having extreme densities and temperatures that today can only be probed in high-energy environments. The results of Big Bang predictions have been found to conform accurately and precisely to a variety of astronomical observations." This is the absolute truth the Human World believes in.

Origins of the events.
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> Human's point of view: Chemical reactions led to the first self-replicating molecules about four billion years ago. A half billion years later, the last common ancestor of all life arose. The evolution of photosynthesis allowed the Sun's energy to be harvested directly by life forms. The resultant molecula oxygen accumulated in the atmosphere and due to interaction with ultraviolet solar radiation, formed a protective ozone layer in the upper atmosphere. The incorporation of smaller cells within larger ones resulted in the development of complex cells called eukaryotes. True multicellular organisms formed as cells within colonies became increasingly specialized. Aided by the absorption of harmful ultraviolet radiation by the ozone layer, life colonized Earth's surface. Among the earliest fossil evidence for life is microbial mat fossils found in 3.48 billion-year-old sandstone in Western Australia, biogenic graphite found in 3.7 billion-year-old metasedimentary rocks in Western Greenland, and remains of biotic material found in 4.1 billion-year-old rocks in Western Australia. The earliest direct evidence of life on Earth is contained in 3.45 billion-year-old Australian rocks showing fossils of microorganisms. During the Neoproterozoic, much of Earth might have been covered in ice. This hypothesis has been termed “Snowball Earth” and it is of particular interest because it preceded the Cambrian explosion, when multicellular life forms significantly increased in complexity. Following the Cambrian explosion, 535Mya, there have been five mass extinctions. The most recent such event was 66 Mya, when an asteroid impact triggered the extinction of the non-avian dinosaurs and other large reptiles, but spared some small animals such as mammals, which at the time resembled shrews. Mammalian life has diversified over the past 66 Mys, and several million years ago an African ape-like animal such as Orrorin Tugenesis gained the ability to stand upright. This facilitated tool use and encouraged communication that provided the nutrition and stimulation needed for a larger brain, which led to the evolution of humans. The development of agriculture, and then civilization, led to humans having an influence on Earth and the nature and quantity of other life forms that continues to this day.

Rokkenjima's Massacre
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Human's point of view: Because the Human side doesn't acknowledge the existence of magic, they didn't acknowledge the existence of the witch called Beatrice. The real culprits, in the Human World, are Shannon and Kanon. Because Sayo is able to dress up as either Shannon, Kanon and Beatrice, but Beatrice is the only meta-existence in the Human World (after all, she's still a witch), Shannon and Kanon, who are alternate personas of Sayo (though both Shannon and Kanon have their own will, kinda), they were the ones who murdered everyone. That is what happens in the first episodes. In EP 7, however, it's totally different. It is confirmed that EP7 is the canon ending of Rokkenjima's Massacre, and that is what actually happened. Overall: The family conference had begun on Rokkenjima on October 4th. During dinner the family was presented with Beatrice's challenge of solving the epitaph. The adults were successful in solving it and discovered the gold room where Sayo Yusada was waiting for them with four rifles that she admits she was going to use to murder them. She gives them the card with some of the gold already converted to useable money and reveals to them the bomb: 900 Tons of unexploded World War II ordanance and fuel underneath Rokkenjima wired to an antique clock that would destroy Rokkenjima at 12:00 AM if the switch was turned on. The meeting in the gold room quickly turned into a scuffle between the adults with them taking up rifles against each other. The first causality was an accidental discharge from Eva's gun into Natsuhi's eye. The fighting continues and Krauss is murdered as well. The remaining attempt to come up with a plan to hide the bodies. Rosa comes up with a plan, but is shot by Kyrie. Kyrie and Rudolf decide to put a plan in motion so that they can hide all the bodies by blowing up the island and escaping to Kuwadorian with Battler if they can rope him into their plan. They begin by murdering the remaining adults and shooting Sayo as well. Kyrie and Rudolf then begin the mass murders. Rudolf is shown murdering George and Kyrie is shown murdering Jessica. Besides this no other murders committed by Kyrie and Rudolf are shown and are only talked about by Kyrie saying she used a knife to murder everyone in the Guest House which included Maria and the servants. Eva survived Kyrie's attempted murder as the bullet only scathed the side of her head. She then leaves the room to stop them. She meets Rudolf in front of the Chapel and kills him after knowing he murdered George. She then has a final meeting with Kyrie in the Rose Garden and the two have a final stand-off against each other. Kyrie's bullet once again barely misses Eva and Eva finally ends Kyrie's life. Eva then escapes to Kuwadorian, the only place safe from the bomb's blast radius. It is shown in the manga that Battler finds Rudolf's body at the Chapel, and discovers the lion statue pointing towards the direction of the hidden gold. He enters the secret gold room and finds all the adults dead; where he saw Sayo (dressed as Beatrice). She brings Battler to the underground submarine area to shelter from the typhoon and was asked by Battler if Sayo was the "Beatrice" on the portrait. When she spoke, Battler recognized her voice, (who was Shannon), and confessed that she was Sayo Yasuda, who was Shannon, Kanon, and at the same time, Beatrice. She told Battler that she waited for him for the whole time and her plans about killing everyone including him and Sayo herself, but forgave her anyway since it was only an attempt and the ones who really did the massacre were Rudolf and Kyrie. He understands that Sayo was also in pain, and told her that if he have solved the epitaph, he would have saved her. In the morning, she told Battler to escape the island using the motor boat, and was asked by Battler why she isn't coming with him. Sayo, (acting like Beatrice), says that she was the master of the Golden Land so she cannot leave. She insisted Battler to hurry up because she might bring up a storm again if she was in bad mood. Just when she thought that Battler is already leaving, he suddenly carried Sayo and told her that he'll take her as a souvenir from the Golden Land and is gonna kidnap her which made Sayo lost in words and cried. While they are on the boat, he told Battler to close his eyes because she would kiss him. The moment she did it, the embarrased Battler opened his eyes but was slapped by Sayo, telling her that he has no delicacy and to continue to close his eyes. The last kiss was on his earlobe, which made Battler extremely embarrassed, but didn't open his eyes because he knows that Sayo will get angry. When he opened his eyes again, Sayo was no longer there. Overcome with guilt and grief, she throws herself into the sea with a single gold ingot tied on her foot to weigh her down. Battler tries to save her, but washes up onto shore instead. Returned to his home town, Battler loses consciousness and will later be found by Ichigo (Featherine's human self). The morning later, Battler awakes, and he finds himself to not even remembering his own name: Battler entirely lost his memory. A new name Ichijo will give him, and so, Battler will now live as …. However, he'll eventually remember everything, most importantly, the little sister he forgot about: Battler is now already 40/50, and his sister Ange is a full grown and mature woman who has nothing to fear now, and nice surprise, she even became the best writer in Japan. Battler decides to meet her, and Ange will eventually recognize him. Ange will then guide him to her house, and there, he will find out that Beatrice, alongside everyone, were waiting for him. At a last moment, they opened the door to the Golden Land, starting a perfect life in that perfect place, fully aware that, the Cat Box has been sealed, and thus, this ending is the only canon ending of the story, a beautiful canon ending!

Witches's point of view: It happens exactly the same thing, except for the last part of the Massacre. Instead of returning home, Battler'll reach Sayo, and they will both die together, fully aware that, the Cat Box has now reached the Depths of Oblivion, aware that the Cat Box will always be remembered as the one without an answer, without an end, but just tragic deaths, which reasons still aren't understood...

And that's about it. I'm probably missing something, but those three were pretty much the most important ones.

Spiritual Worlds and Spiritual Entities . What are they?
Spiritual Worlds are the Black Cells of the Gameboard. They are worlds beyond Human's domain and territory. Spiritual Worlds are generally religious-based planes of existence, like the Astral Plane (also known as Aether), Buddha's existence and far more. ^These are all dimensions where certain types of concepts are the main essence (The main essence of the Astral Plane is, well, Aether, also called “the fifth element”) and where Human's restrictions are gone (though Meta-World beings still see them as pieces inside a gameboard). Spiritual lifeforms who live in those Supernatural worlds can also descend in the Human form (in the form of ghosts/spirits) and play alongside them. The famous ghosts of Rokkenjima are also nothing more than ghosts in those Higher Planes who want to escape from boredom. Speaking of those, each Spiritual being seem to reach their fullest during the night, probably because the anti-magic toxin is gone and thus the spirits can manifest their power. Another argument will be that spirits grow stronger because of people's dreams and thoughts, which while in the Human Worlds are relative,[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/vsbattles/images/8/8c/CosmoMap1.png/revision/latest?cb=20180526092145 in the higher realities those are the very essene of life and concepts. ]

It should be noted that Spiritual lifeforms in those places can do things that Human can only dream of, in the very sense of the statement. In the Human World, science is what is used to explain everything: the study of the subconscious and of the dreams, why do we create such strange and contorted thoughts, these are all irrelevant things (in the Human World) that are simply “things that exist because science allows it, since it is scientifically stated that a person can dream because bla bla bla”. On the other hand, in the Ladder of Concepts, soul and mind, balance, these kind of stuff is the main argument of “debate”. All our obscure and dark side, all of our thoughts and wills and desires, they all matter. “Trying to find a perfect balance and let your consciousness ascend to an higher-world”, “creating a perfect personality and being able to balance your hatred and love, destroying all the flaws the human's body was born with and the imperfect and incomplete world a human in the interior is”.. These are all very important things that need to be acknowledged in order to reach the Hierarchical Ladder of Concepts. Though, spirits aren't perfect. They still do have a few of humans's limitations: like the humans, they are controlled by Meta-beings who exist beyond them, in The World of Witches. It should be noted however that when a character trascends Human's domain and reach the Ladder of Concepts, that being naturally trascends the Ladders of Concepts as all the skills, knowledge, emotions and thoughts that were before stored in the Human's body now trascended to an higher plane and those very things are the things that will allow you (the Spiritual being) to create your  perfect world, based on your opinions and on your preferences, and in addition, you can always modify your world if you feel like you don't want to repeat the same error by choosing something instead of another thing.

Note: it shouldn't be forgot that the things i'm going to list are basically the essence of your being, the very charateristics that will allow your spirit self to recognize you:  how you behaved during your earthly life, the emotions you felt and the way you showed them, if you ever sinned, the right and wrong things you did, how you were able to manage your opinions and your feelings in various moments etc. (a bit like in the Buddhist religion, your reincarnation in a higher dimension depends on and varies from the life you have faced and had in the earthly world, an impure and contaminated world). These characteristics are the qualities that the gods have offered them, that is the ability to think, act, try, savor, feel, do, and so on. These are all things that are transcendental to gods, but for men they are crucial and based on those things men can recognize and determine with certainty the life they want to live and why; but also who they are/want to be as well. And based on how you used what the gods have offered you, your being will be characterized in a higher world. (Ladder of Concepts) These features are:

===Personal Peace: while the biological body, on the complexity of the content, confronts the universe, the spiritual and mental totality, forming the individual personality, can also be called peace. It will include characteristics of the nature, characteristics, perceptions of the world, as well as (if any) possible dependent supernatural beings and concepts and unique magic formulas that make up the system-compendium. All acquisitions (can either be congenital or things originated from life experiences of knowledge, skills, abilities and talents) are an integral part of personal peace, memorized on a spiritual level. === === Soul:    substance of abstract information that serves as a container for the individual. It replaces the physical body in the imaginary space of the inner world, in dreams or after death. For supernatural beings whose material is not a vessel, the soul is the only container when for living people it is secondary to their biological body. Information received in a supernatural way can also fade or disappear, unless they meet memory in the brain (mental plane in the supernatural world). === ===  Spirit / Heart/ Mind     —     ego, personality, an incorporeal consciousness, universe within the soul and its essence, the soul as universe and essence, but rather a more fundamental phenomenon. The spiritual mind can remain an impotent form even after the loss of a spiritual body. This is the source of emotions capable of crossing worlds, dimensions and planes out of existence. === ===  Identity:      it is a property of the psyche, which expresses its own identity performed by the role. Intention:      it is a fundamental concept and one of the laws of the world that affirms that the will of destiny strengthens and increases the chances of success in achieving a certain goal. Of course, changing one's situation in the global flow of destiny must always receive more effort (however, in the human world there are currents of fate to go against), and the heart must firmly believe in success. Determination of hardness and determination of fate not diminished by the dropdown on the bones of the figures can allow a change in the reality of which one is part of. It is an irresistible force beyond the personality, the management of people and the whole world. Absolute intention leads to the absolute future. In a clash of conflicting desires, the strongest suppresses the weaker. It is also capable of overwhelming karmic superiority. Will and determination are crucial to life itself, for example, their influence can resist disease or maintain the stability of the state ready to die in the body, even if it would not be in line with the knowledge of medicine. === <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none" lang="en"> ===  Last Limit:       It is assumed that the heart, being a fundamental part of the individual entity, is a particle of the Creator, covered by layers of restrictions, the last of which is self-consciousness, personality. This may explain the inviolability of the spirit, as well as the fact that although the Human Domain contains a hierarchy of worlds, where the superior is superior to the inferior and reality surpasses fiction, the spiritual reason of living beings is the only thing which essentially remains the same regardless of the position. At least evolution to higher creatures requires the same domain of Spiritual Development. === ===Karma:  '''The fate of the individual, its position in the world and the society is determined by the actions and their moral orientation. All of this is directly related to the integrity of the substantial integrity of the soul (it recovers over time as improving mental state).'''  === ===Perception:   is a spiritual condition that determines the view of the world and in fact the situation itself. Reality seems bright, intense and full of hope for those who are strong and the opposite for the ones who lost will, and thus the soul becomes weak: the world becomes dull, bleak, close and hopeless. It is possible that the universe and everything is only surrounded by the darkness of uncertainty and the combination of points of view. ===

Oppressive Aura:  spiritually strong creature can give cold and fear in those who are weaker, forcing them to obey, paralyzing with just a glance or stampede       an entity.
===Karmic Distortion:   an opportunity to intimidate and oppress other people allows you to literally eat their souls particles, while rising in the social hierarchy due to influence on karma. The same should apply to supernatural beings, possessing a high level of spiritual forces. === ' Now, not only can Spirits create their own worlds, but they can also interact with the Human World. An example are the evil spirits that once resided on Rokkenjima. However, a beautiful man in search of something to keep him interested once went to Rokkenjima, just to find out that it was inhabitated by Spirits. That man used a magic-repellent mirror to seal the spirits inside and take away their powers. Coincidence, Natsuhi seems to be a descendant of that man: in fact, she seems to know a lot about that mirror inside the Shrine (not to mention that she also possess her own magic-repellent mirror) and Natsuhi is a descendant from a line of Shinto priests, and that man was also part of that family... '

Anyway, Spirits use Wavelenghts in order to communicate with Humans. ==='' Wavelenghts:    something like established spiritual frequencies associated with individuality. The better the compatible wavelength, the easier it is to establish communication. Even people with the physical body may be able to sense the presence or even see and communicate with spirits. Factors that could darken the mind on the biological level (for example, certain effects on the thought processes of the brain, even just intoxication) may enhance the perception of the supernatural. '' Anyway, Spirits can also influence and affect human's mind, thoughts, ideas and opinions. Because as their wavelenght reach them, humans can perceive the presence of them and thus that could change their state of being: humans may be feared of spirits, so much that maybe they can dream of them and or even feel their presence in the most opportune moments, just as, however, they could appreciate the spirits and have a majestic and fundamental idea of them .===

===''   This is a list of the things that Spirits can affect, manipulate and influence in order to change the mind, soul and heart of a being in order to create a different organism/different side out of “what once was that being”. === <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">   Very Important:     ' It should be noted that no matter what Spirits do, they'll NEVER change the essence of a person, which i'm going to explain below what that is. '''

Essence:      T        he term essence means "that for which a certain thing is what it is, and not another thing". The essence therefore indicates those determinations of a thing, specified in its "definition" that constitute its nature (or "species" in Aristotelian terms); that psychologically speaking corresponds to the particular vision of reality determined by our mental categories: the "image apparatuses of the world". ' ''The real definition of a person. Just as the DNA is practically a code that contains our meaning from a physical point of view, the essence is a code containing the true bases / words on what we are from a spiritual point of view. That is, something that can not be changed (except through the use of strange tactics) that has been given to us by the gods themselves. Opinions, preferences and ideas are not part of the essence, given their ephemeral and easily variable nature, but basic things such as character, inner beauty, intelligence, sexual orientation, pleasure and excitement. Despite the fact that even the things mentioned now can vary over time / through mental, psychological and anfiotropic methods; however, they are those characteristics in which our being and the true concept of our entity in which we can recognize ourselves are the foundations on which our inner existence and our identity are founded. We are what we were born and exist, we are the messages we would like to convey, we are the smiles that we offer to people for reasons that are difficult for us to understand, we are our dreams and desires. The main reason why this can also be changed is because we are beings with our own will, ready to sacrifice everything for the destiny of a person / to reach a goal, for our determinations but also for our whims (example: I love reading books but the others think it is unlucky so I will start to behave, dress and act like the "cool" people to become part of the small group of "school jocks"). We have to change the way our spirit and mind is in the broadest sense, and doing so we act in spite of the fact that the essence portrays our very own, our concept, identity, personality, in short, US (example: I am ArceusBowser44 . My essence can be translated as "ArceusBowser44", that is, all that I am from all points of view, all that I am portrayed in one concept, EVERYTHING, from my greatest goals to my most foolish weaknesses, from my best dreams to the strangest nightmares.) '''

Anyway, now that i clarified this little thing, let's make the list:
===''Dreams: images that arise in the mind during sleep, associated with the abstract plane intersected with the World of Spirits. They are visions, related with the strange world located between reality and dreams.''===

Imagination: It is controlled by mental images, extremely important to use magic.

 * If-World: is such a phenomenon as déjà vu may be a consequence of the emergence of scrappy memory about real lives in alternate worlds. Development imagination stimulates the ability, allowing not just submit a possible future, but also to see it. This is especially true for those events that happened in other worlds and have caused enormous regret and desire to change them to the inhabitants of that world. In addition to that in special cases can be transferred to the feelings and experience. 

===Fear: Fear   is a feeling induced by perceived danger or threat that occurs in certain types of organisms, which causes a change in metabolic and organ functions and ultimately a change in behavior, such as fleeing, hiding, or freezing from perceived traumatic events. Fear in human beings may occur in response to a specific stimulus occurring in the present, or in anticipation or expectation of a future threat perceived as a risk to body or life. The fear response arises from the perception of danger leading to confrontation with or escape from/avoiding the threat, which in extreme cases of fear (horror and terror) can be a freeze response or paralysis. === <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; text-decoration: none" lang="en"> ===  Perception:  '' is the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the presented information, or the environment. All perception involves signals that go through the nervous system, which in turn result from physical or chemical stimulation of the sensory system. For example, vision involves light striking the retina of the eye, smell is mediated by odor molecules and hearing nvolves pressure waves. Perception is not only the passive receipt of these signals, but it's also shaped by the recipient's learning, memory, expectation, and attention.''===

===Decisions:  the decision is the choice to take an action, among more alternatives considered (options), by an individual or a group (decision maker). The decision-making process is also called a  decision-making process.===

===Indecisions and Insicurities:  the lack of certainty, a limited state of knowledge in which it is impossible to describe exactly the existing state, the future results or more than a possible result. State of mind/mood with alternating emotions aroused by factors external to the individual that affect his subconscious enough to give him a feeling of bewilderment towards the reality that surrounds him. denotes insecurity for fear of not being accepted.===

You thought it was over? XD Nope. From my monologue it may seem that it is easy to create a Spiritual World, but it really isn't. That is because the Akaishic Plane exists. OvO Damn that plane of existence. That is the reason why it's hard to create a perfect world. As i stated, in the Akaishic Plane, all the information about the entire Human World are stored, and in that very place there exist special departments, each reserved for every single person in the human world. Each department is made up of shelves, where all the information about that person is kept. Exactly, all of them. Not just the beautiful ones, unfortunately also the bad ones. Those are also called "lossess".

====''Losses and remedies: Loss is an event that is dangerously repeated in the astral plane. At the end of the life cycle, the information of the essence of a being is placed in the "Akaishic Plan", where all the concepts and information of the earthly world are kept and kept under control. However, even the unpleasant peculiarities that have marked a good part of the life of an organism and often also influenced and / or soiled the soul and the essence of a certain character of the organism are kept in a shelf concerning precisely that particular character ( it can be anything like the character).''==== Just like the unpleasant details, even the "faults" or what we see as "the uncertainties and doubts that the unconscious projects us" are preserved.

To give a somewhat heavy example, one's sexual orientation can be considered a defect or an uncertainty. '''If for example you are a man and you enter into a sexual relationship with a woman (combined with the fact that in life you always thought to be attracted to the female sex) but unconsciously male images appear just the moment when you are making love with your own woman, or to give another example, you feel pleasure in imagining two men who are intimate with each other, the unconscious creates a so-called "existential doubt" that could be reflected in the astral world and will then be preserved in the Akaishic plane. Consequently, to create a perfect world with your own unconscious based on your preferences, opinions and ideals; those existential doubts must be resolved and overcome, thus giving a definitive answer to one's own unconscious and saying "I am sure it is" to ourselves, purifying the soul from inadequate thoughts and not asking and finally finding what is its essence, becoming one with the last one.'''

This is not always easy, however. When that "defect" has left a strong impact on the body's essence, it can be difficult to completely get rid of the defect, since it could remain (even just the concept) in the Akaishic Plan. When this happens, the organism is not ready to develop its own perfect world, since the concept or even the memory (in the spiritual world even the stupid and apparently irrelevant things completely change their importance)' remains 'in the Akahish Plan, therefore, from a spiritual point of view (of the supernatural world, this means), the organism has not yet achieved harmony with itself and its own concept / idea / perception of perfection.

Depending on the severity of the situation, a person can perform two actions: 1 Being totally incapable of realizing your ideal world. 2 Being able to create an incomplete world (An example is Sayo Yusada).

However, there were people capable of completely remedying that loss, like little Mary. From a magical and spiritual point of view, Rosa Ushiromiya originated the teddy bear called Sakutarou to give to her daughter for her birthday; later Mary will give life to Sakutarou and this last divider her best friend.

Taken from a fit of rage, Rosa destroyed Sakutarou, which not only marked Maria, but created in her a void so great that it was apparently unrepeatable (not even witches with their magic could repair Sakutarou.) This is because from a magical point of view / spirit, what originates (does it by chance remember the magic of the origins?) from a certain person can only be repaired by the creator, since only she has transmitted her emotions, ideas and above all their love to create something in a certain way).

'''In response, in a matter of three seconds, Mary learned the magical arts and killed her mother a thousand times in succession. Here's what you suffer when you destroy a child's dreams ..'''

Anyway, back to topic, Maria was able to create (unconsciously) Sakutarou; now in fact, in the perfect world created by Mary, Sakutarou exists, and can continue to play and interact with the best friend just as in the past.

This is a list of the type of “lossess” that you have to destroy/modify in order to create your perfect world:
===1) Loss of emotions:  This type of loss is the least serious. It can be associated with events such as "that person I loved so much did not return my feelings" or "he, my best friend who has always been there for me has betrayed our friendship to be friends with a cooler person" . Generally, it is not difficult to find a solution to these losses. Often one can replace one's love with another (an example is Sayo, who stole the love of the last one for Battler to stop Shannon from suffering.) However, this changed the world of Sayo-Beatrice, since without the love of Battler, her "Golden Land" was incomplete, but the void will then be filled through the meeting with Maria: they will become best friends, and Sayo's Golden Land will finally be complete, even if the last one would have preferred a Golden Land with Battler). === ===2) Loss of Event:  This is slightly more serious than the "Loss of Emotions". Sometimes, it can happen that a certain event can mark your life completely, and maybe it can even make you change your mind about something or someone. An example is Battler. === ===In the fourth episode, Battler must pass the test Beatrice offers him. Initially the test is simply to see if Battler would have sacrificed everything and everyone to protect the one he loves, but Battler told her he did not really have a crush at the moment. Beatrice, disappointed, decides to change the evidence: asks Battler to remember the sin he had committed 8 years before the moment arrived, a sin that killed many people. However, Battler tells her that she does not remember anything, but Beatrice, really angry, insists. He finally yields, realizing that Battler did not really know what she was talking about. At that moment, the world of Beatrice is shattered, and Beatrice herself decides not to continue the game, becoming a kind of apathetic and in-emotional doll. But just in the following game, the game in which Battler realizes what his beautiful woman was talking about, the world of Beatrice, slowly, begins to get right, and at the end of the same episode (spoiler) the marriage between the two will have place.=== ===3) Loss of Desire:  From here, things are already beginning to get complicated. This loss represents the loss of desire, what you love, how you would like things to be. Desire is a state of affection of the ego, consisting in a volitional impulse directed towards an external object, of which contemplation is desired, or, more easily, possession and / or availability. The condition proper to desire implies for the I feeling that they can be painful or pleasant, depending on the satisfaction or not of the desire itself. Moral pain for the lack of the loved one or the object or condition that one absolutely needs, but also the pleasant and engaging feeling of being able to relive a moment or situation in a pleasant way, that the mind can evoke in more ways. or less evanescent and / or realistic with respect to the perceptions of the experience actually experienced.  Losing a desire is basically like losing the main thing you loved, the thing you've been looking for so much, the desire you always wanted it to come true to make you feel good or to see the essence and meaning of the miracle you created through your desire / pleasure. A world without a desire ... it's empty. It's like if a part of you is missing. However, the wish can be remembered: once the spirit has understood all the concepts of the supernatural world, its information stored in the Akaishic Plan will be immediately remembered, therefore, it will be able to remember what was its original desire. === === 4) Loss of Someone/Something:  Arrived here, things get even more difficult. The loss of someone or something in the world of Umineko is even more serious than the loss of desire. This is because, in the world of Umineko, to create a truly complete universe, two people are needed. There are also cases where universes can also be created by one person (such as Maria and Sayo Yusada), but creating a universe for two is conceptually even more magnificent in the world of Umineko, mainly due to the fact that, although it does not seem, it is a story based on the principles of love.  But oh well, that's another topic. I used it to show how important it was "love" and "the couple". The main reason why people in Umineko can be so important is because nobody has control over others. Spirits can (towards humans), but humans do not. In Umineko, all life forms originate from something and someone, and as I said above, when that form of life is killed / made out, only the creator can give a true form to what he had created, given that a part of the creator has been invaded in the life of creation (even if not so for all cases, and in those cases, once the creator can become a superior entity, like a witch or a spirit, he can give new life to creation). However, even this is not unrepeatable. The reason is the same as the loss of desire, but the difference is that it is much more difficult to perfectly recreate something / someone. This is because who is not the creator can not immediately realize what the creator was thinking at that moment or what emotion or characteristic of the creator is more like his creation or why he created it and so on. In addition, when that something / someone has been really important to you and you hear his words traveling in the air for one last time, you can mark the entity for life. It could create existential doubts, in the worst case it could also confuse the entity itself about who he / she really is from a conceptual point of view, or maybe it could also modify the entity's opinions so that the entity starts behaving as "the boy / girl whom the person has always desired", to do not only honor the dead person, but also maybe connect to the person in question in a certain sense. Of course, this can be solved once you have understood perfectly how the Akaishic Plan works, but this means that you will also need to understand the essence and the reason of the creator, thus becoming one with the last or a kind of twin with the same opinions or ideas to bring back to life what the creator had created. However, it is much easier if you are able to master the magic of the origins.=== === 5) Loss of Idea:  This is a kind of loss that is given by the lack or loss of the idea or opinion. When the spirit forgets the true idea, that is the reason and the opinion on how a perfect world should be structured for him, or something else. The idea understood in a universal way would be a bit like the essence, but less abstract and complicated. The idea is a set of all those things that make up the basis of one and only personal truth. Conceptually, the idea implies a natural uniformity, in which the different manifestations of objects make up a single pure form, or "idea", which unites them all, in a manner similar to a model or an archetype. All the "ideas" are placed in a different world, the "hyperuranium" world, from which they flow as from a source and then reach the conscience of humanity.I lose the idea, you lose practically the reason, the meaning and the structure of the your world, all those opinions and ideas that make up your unique and single mind, the universal scheme that lays the foundation of the creation, destruction and characteristics of your world.The world to remedy this loss is not only to learn and fully understand the world spirit, but also take a journey with the mind in the mental plane, to remember the real basis of the opinion that has always had. === === 6) Loss of Heart :   The loss of love is partly serious, because the reason and the reason are forgotten and ignored. The real reason for why you wanted to create a world made this way. Maybe it's to forget someone? Or maybe something? Or maybe just to not suffer anymore .. The possibilities are endless. Love has always been half the writings of many authors who are ready to give their opinion on this wonderful emotion; however, it is often always underestimated and treated as a means of approaching someone, without even understanding the meaning or how to use that means. Conceptually, we define the compassion essence of every love and solidarity, love and solidarity that are explained in the light of the pain of life. This leads to a metaphysical pessimism, as it is precisely love that attracts us into a cosmic cycle constantly repeated in a spiral of suffering. Love is ultimately an illusion of the will (essence of all things that are) which seeks to perpetuate itself through reproduction. Often, it is confused with sympathy, which is conceptually the structure of all moral feelings. Love overcomes the right, it is something that goes beyond and is more important. It is therefore desirable for a state, society and family centered on love rather than laws. Love does not have the boundaries of law, made up of oppositions and balances between powers and continuous distinctions; love is antithesis to all oppositions and all multiplicity. It is in being the renunciation of oneself for another that leads to the identification of the subject in another person, and, equally in thought, to the fact that the subject loses consciousness of himself and becomes aware of this identity, of being one and not being able to live without the other: Love expresses in general the consciousness of my unity with the other, so that I, for me, am not a block, but my self-awareness is affirmed only as a renunciation to my being for oneself and as a unity of myself with each other. The true essence of love consists in abandoning the consciousness of oneself, in becoming oneself in another self and yet in finding oneself and truly possessing oneself in this oblivion. So it is the identification of the subject in another person, it is the feeling that two beings exist only in a perfect unity and place in this identity all their soul and the whole world. Love is something that, in Umineko, binds the soul to the beloved, the forces of the universe that all of us contain inside are provoked and activate their energy, the heat and all the fantasies that we create unconsciously are just waiting to meet their soul mate to blow up the inner heat and give life and shape to a new world, a world where our thoughts are totally distant from reality and where all we see is the face of the beloved / beloved, we are just waiting to unite in a contact not only physical but also spiritual with the last one to give life to a new magnificent and above all complete world. === ===7) Loss of Goal:  This is another very serious loss. Losing your goal is like never wanting to finish what you started. It is a strange loss, under certain points of view, given that logically the important thing is to reconstruct one's own determination and finish what has been started. But it is not exactly like this: the loss of the goal would be like another way of saying "I am a limited being". Like witches who instead of ascending into infinite tenure, stop and determine the ground beneath the feet. Like when the Meta-Beings lose control of themselves and their imagination and consequently fall into the darkness of oblivion. === ===8) Loss of Concept:  Finally, we find the loss of the concept. The most serious of losses. Losing the concept is very serious, as losing the concept, you no longer identify yourself in what you are conceptually, you no longer seem to be the entity called as you. You seem to be another. Everything you thought and the virtues in which you believed do not belong to you anymore. All your realities and your desires, what once were you and you had to completely modify for a certain objective, giving life to another entity, and destroying what was your essence. ===

In other words, your essence is destroyed, and you are not yourself anymore.

Hierarchic Tiers: Existence and Importance
<p style="text-align: LEFT; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

<p style="text-align: LEFT; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">So as i already said, Umineko is based on the concept of the Infinite Hierarchy, and there are various entities who inhabit certain types of world. So right now, i'm going to make a list based on the lowest and most irrelevant existences in Umineko to the highest authorities:

<p style="text-align: LEFT; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

Domain of Humans
<p style="text-align: LEFT;">

Furniture
“Furnitures” are absolutely the most irrelevant existence in Umineko regarding the position in the social scale and the political / social / conceptual importance and etc. The term  Furniture   describes a variety of servants created by those with magical abilities. They are often used as butlers or maids, and often have hidden combat abilities to double as bodyguards for their masters.

'''The term is used to refer to any beings who are less than human and was most likely created by Yasu. [https://mangapark.me/manga/umineko-no-naku-koro-ni-chiru-episode-7-requiem-of-the-golden-witch The descriptive term is rooted in Yasu's idea of being a lesser being to ordinary humans, equivalent to the Furniture people use to help themselves. This is probably the reason that all forms of Furniture are servants. ]'''

In Requiem of the Golden Witch, it is suggested that from a real world perspective, Furnitures were drawn by Yasu in some sort of drawing book (which could be Maria's grimoire), which explains how a drawing of Sakutarou was found in Maria's grimore during Alliance of the Golden Witch. In Answer to the Golden Witch, Ryukishi07 revealed that Shannon (and likely Kanon) sarcastically calls herself furniture because of her body being unable to love. Beatrice/Eva Beatrice's Furniture:

Human.
Humans are a species known in 7th Expansion, since they are generally the protagonists of the stories. Humans are "extravagant" beings, some given their life as scammers and sins committed one after another without ever having enough and above all without ever stopping are limited to being human and living a single life. Those who do nothing important in life, behave like cowards or bullies are also of the same type. In fact, it is very possible that a human can be reincarnated in another story, or better yet, the entity that the human has incosciamente created within itself (like Rika and Bernkastel) can take a form and escape from the human body; limited and useless; to travel through the sea of fragments and maybe find another story where to reincarnate. If this is not his will, then the abstract entity can also become a superior being like a witch or a Voyager (the case of Bern). However, this is why often an entity like Bernkastel or Lambdadelta can have various avatars, like Miyo (for Lambdadelta) and Rika(Bernkastel).

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm"> In case the human behaves in a "perfect" way in the eyes of the gods (it is not always so in all cases, for example, the protagonists of Higurashi are far from perfection, but given their conceptual relationship with Rika and their strong friendship with her, they brought Hanyu, the protectress and meastro of Rika, to give them a "superior" form, especially given the fact that all of them are opponents of Miyo, who is trying to defeat Hanyu and become a god) can become entities supernatural, the spirits. In extreme cases, when a human is simply too big to be limited to his world, he can become a Territory Lord and the creator of the Cat Box, the case of Sayo Yusada. The force on which the Humans stand the most is their own will. Given the rebellious nature of humans, beings blessed by gods, capable of loving, feeling, feeling and being themselves, they are able to manipulate the odds through their intentions and their desires, and with the help of faith, they are capable to determine destiny and their future. A simple rule: "hard-workers are rewarded".

This nature manifests itself in the form of such phenomena as the will and intentions which determine the future and fate with the help of faith.

To make an example, let's take Higurashi: If you read the Higurashi, then you should have noticed that such things are very often repeated in this work. This is basically the main theme in the last episodes (Minagoroshi-hen and Matsuribayashi-hen). If you read Higurashi you know that the integrity of this whole board is connected with her will and desires. And all this is the unconscious action of Lambdadelta. Read "The Witches' Tanabata" from Umineko Tsubasa to get more detailed information. And also here what Lamda said about this:

''Definitely, arrive. That is not a wish anymore. If I were to say it with human words, it'd be 'determination'. If I were to say it with witch words, ...... it'd be 'fate'. Speaking about a wish that will definitely come true is not called determination. That is already called 'predestination'. To bring forth fate is not for the category of the humans.''

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Also interview with Ryukishi07:

''K: Let's not talk about the connection with Higurashi for now. The concept behind "the Witch of Certainty vs. the Witch of Miracles" is interesting. In a previous interview (translator's note: from one of the Umineko guidebooks), you've said that human beings call the behaviour of automatically converting an event with 99.99% certainty into 100% as "certainty", and call the behaviour of not denying the remaining 0.01% possibility as "miracles". It looks like this statement is closely related to the present design.''

''R: Yes. If you think of it that way, it is worth paying attention to which part of the chessboard is 99.99% and why not 100%. Digressing from the topic a little, in essence, why is there a need for an advance notice to the murders? If the goal is simply to kill people, then there's no need to write an advance notice; it's good enough to just quietly kill people off [...] Why following the epitaph and committing all those flashy murders? After a mass murder has been committed on the first night, everyone would obviously gather together and confine themselves. It gives me a headache trying to figure out a plot to separate the characters (smile).''

Higurashi, Umineko, this thing about will/intention, faith, fate, future, miracles and certainly are mentioned and acts literally everywhere. Higurashi, Umineko, even in other works with the participation of Ryukishi.. To make it short: As long as you work hard, you are rewarded. But in addition to that, you should also believe in that (which is Lambda's "conceptual nature"). If you don't, then you don't allow Lambda's law to influence your world, thus, you won't be rewarded unless your determination is very strong.

Here is explained what this faith means. It is also identified with life. And life is a very existence. Even Kakera themselves take their form in accordance with the faith of the living and the intentions of those who live inside.

Spirits
They are ghost-like entites that live in the Supernatural World but have a mind that understands the conceptual ladders, and they can interact with the Human World as well. Before becoming spirits, their human soul takes the form of non-biological body, which depends on individual concepts or, in the case of ghost of people, from the clothes they were wearing at the time of death. Their Spiritual Power is associated with the soul and mind of Supernatural power, which to a greater or lesser extent, have even ordinary people. Expressing feelings and beliefs creatures, this power can be used for mystical properties, for example, grant special abilities giving objects the form of fictional concepts, fuel the energy of certain territories, enhance or suppress the magical phenomena. In addition, strong emotions are able to attract the attention of otherworldly creatures. Spirits can communicate trough Wavelenghts, which are    something like established spiritual frequencies associated with individuality. The better the compatible wavelength, the easier it is to establish communication. Even people with the physical body may be able to sense the presence or even see and communicate with spirits. Factors that could darken the mind on the biological level (for example, certain effects on the thought processes of the brain, even just intoxication) may enhance the perception of the supernatural.

Spirits can also manipulate and create Spiritual Worlds, but i think we already talked a bit too much about that so yeah. XD

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Witches
Witches are entities even above Spirits. Their potential vary on the type of magic they have and many other factors, even personal ones, such as Fate and Background and all that stuff. In fact, higher-order beings may create those witches in the first place, and control them. It is rare that things like that happen, as generally a being has to pass trough a determinate moment of life or has to experience something in order to actually become a witch; but it still can happen.

Territorial Lords
Already explained.

Demons
<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Entities that inhabit Hell.

<p style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

Purgatory Sins
The seven sins that inhabit Purgatory. People that inhabit that place are the ones who committed the sins and in order to serve the sentence have to do various kind of things. Once you purify from one sin, you reach an higher rank. Depending on the rank you are and on the sins you commited, these are the things you have to do in order to purify your soul:

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">「ここは第一冠. 高慢の罪を浄める場所です. 御覧なさい. ここでは、生前に高慢の罪を犯した 者たちが、重い石を背負って歩き続けなければなりません. 」

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">"This is the first rank. The place where the sin of pride is purified. Look. Those who commited the sin of pride in their lives, are forced to continue walking with a heavy stone on their backs."

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">ここは第二冠. 嫉妬者が目蓋を縫い止められて歩き続けなければならないところです. 」 "This is the second rank. It is a place where jealous people must walk around with their eyelids sewn shut."

「ここは第三冠. 憤怒の罪を浄めるところです. 」 "This is the third rank. The place where the sin of wrath is purified."

「ここは第四冠. 怠惰の罪を浄めるところです. 」 "This is the fourth rank. The place where the sin of sloth is purified."

第三冠では、ものすごい煙の中で、ゴホゴホと咽びながら、お祈りをずっとずっとさせられま した.

At the third rank, in the middle of terribly heavy smoke, while choking violently, I was made to pray constantly.

ずっと煙で燻されていたので、すっかり煙臭くなってしまいました. もう臭いが落ちません. Because it was smokey the whole time, I thoroughly stank of smoke. That smell would no longer come out.

第四冠では、ずっとずっとぐるぐると、山の回りを走り続けさせられました.

In the fourth rank, I was made to run 'round and round the mountain.

鬼さんが恐ろしい唸り声をあげながら追い回してくるので、とてもとても恐ろしかったです.

Because the demon chased me while raising a dreadful roar, it was very very scary.

あちこちの岩肌に布を引っ掛け、綿が千切れて. Here and here, fabric got caught on the rock, and cotton was torn off.

ここは第五冠. 貪欲の罪を浄めるところです. 」 "This is the fifth rank. The place where the sin of greed is purified."

「……僕は、真里亞に誰よりも、そしていつまでも、……昨日までよりも愛されたいと常に願っ てきました. ……それが、貪欲の罪になるかもしれません. 」 "...I have constantly prayed that, I wished to be loved by Maria, .....more than anyone else, and for always, more and more than the day previous. ....that might be, a sin of greed."

「うむ、わかっているようだな. ここでは地に伏して、その罪を悔い改めるのだ. 」 "Yes, it seems like you understand. Here you will bow down to the ground, and repent for that sin."

「ここは第六冠. 暴食の罪を浄めるところです. 」 This is the sixth rank. The place where the sin of gluttony is purified."

「……うりゅ. 僕は、真里亞がひとりぼっちでお留守番をする夜に、よくお菓子パーティを開こう と言ってました. 寝る前にお菓子を食べるのは、いけないことだと知っていたのにです. ……そ れは暴食の罪になると思います. 」 "...uryu. I have, on nights where Maria was alone watching the house, suggested we have a snack party. Even though I knew that, eating snacks before going to bed was bad. ...that is a sin of greed, I think."

「うむ、わかっているようだな. ここでは食物を前に、その罪を悔い改めるのだ. 」 "Yes, it seems like you understand. Here before food, you will repent for that sin."

動かなくていいので、それまでの試練よりは簡単そうに思えました. Because it was okay not to move, compared to the trials up until now, I was able to think it seemed easy.

でも、煉獄山には、朝もあれば夜もあります.

But, on Purgatory Mountain, if there was day, there was also night.

風も吹くし、雨も降れば雪も降ります. 時には煮えた硫黄の雨さえ. The wind blew, and if it rained, it also snowed. Sometimes boiled sulfur only rained down.

何年も悔い改めるうちに、僕はもっともっとボロボロになっていました. While repenting for these sins for countless years, I became more and more worn out.

風雨でぼくはすっかり真っ黒になり、……ぬいぐるみというより、雑巾みたい

そして、最後の第七冠に辿りつき、その試練を終えました. And so, I finally arrived at the seventh rank, and completed the trial.

These are pretty much the important lines that show Purgatory's sins and things like that.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Angels
Inhabitants of Heaven. When someone purify himself/herself from all of his/her sins, is permitted to ascend to Heaven, becoming an Angel, a perfect being connected to the Creator in some way. Heaven is known to be the place quite full of great investigators and detectives, some of the best in Umineko, implying that Angels are truly smart people.

The most notable are SSVD and Eiserne Jungfrau.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">SSVD The  SSVD  is one of the repentance enforcement agencies supervised by the Great Court of Heaven. Its area of jurisdiction is the 8th District. Like the Eiserne Jungfrau, this agency is well-known and is tasked with performing heresy interrogations, and most probably carries out executions and sometimes bestowing redemption. It is rumored that this group's leader, 'Wizard-Hunting Wright', also known as the Twenty Wedges is even more powerful than Dlanor the Archbishop of the Eiserne Jungfrau.

The only known member was the former head of the SSVD, Willard H. Wright and was succeeded by an unnamed female member of the SSVD. Most of the members are shown to be female in Requiem of the Golden Witch, with Willard being the only known male. The total number of members are also uncertain. They also have the same uniform as the Eiserne Jungfrau, but with a different crest symbol.

Just like how the Eiserne Jungfrau use Knox's Decalogue in heresy trials, the SSVD uses the Van Dine's Commandments.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">

<p style="text-align: LEFT; font-weight: normal">Eiserne Jungfrau It is the 7th District Repentance Enforcement Agency of the Great Court of Heaven.

The group is made up of first-class Archbishop Dlanor as the leader, as well as several Assistant Inquisitors. This body is tasked with performing heresy interrogations, carrying out executions, and sometimes bestowing redemption. However, in almost all cases, the Great Court of Heaven considers sending them only after the completion of a heresy interrogation and a tentative guilty verdict, so they are, practically speaking, no different than an execution squad.

Their spectacular achievements are great in number, and they are extremely well-known, even among the other agencies.

Members: Dlanor A. Knox, Cornerlia and Gertrude.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Meta-Witches/Wizards (who can escape from the Territory and reach higher planes)
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">

Senate
<p style="text-align: LEFT;"> The Senate is made of several people, each with their own role. It is said that Dlanor is a member of the Senate, though she only does Administration work, and Willard, as a stronger being than her, should have the same authorities. However, the Senators themselves, the ones who decide the rules, the ones who have many more than the other Witches, the ones who are strongly connected to the City of Books and Featherine herself, are MUCH stronger authorities. The Witches of the Senate are said to be the most powerful witches in existence. Most of the Senate Witches are Creator Witches/Great Witches, basically gods, and Featherine herself is a Great Witch, with the simple difference that she's far above all the other Great Witches, as she nearly became a Creator in the past. Compared to all those witches, Lambdadelta and Bernkastel are very weak, probably the weakest Senators. T he Senate has profound influence around the World Summit, where the ruling power does not only have legal force. Even some Senators have full authority, but their powers may be obscured by the will of the entire group.

====  The legislative power     is the ability to make the laws of the world, to impose rules that govern law and determine the responsibilities. The Great Heavely Court is a subordinate of the Senate, and acts as a “no sooner said than done ” to the Senate. ==== ==== Detective       — provided the conceptual power, allowing even the average person with no special abilities to freely examine the crime scene, noting all possible clues, as well as giving opportunity to inspect with absolute precision. ==== ==== Theatrical Delegation   — provides the conceptual power, allowing you to travel back to the upper world, along with those with whom it was committed by a handshake. There you can interview the purpose of everything she knew, as well as see it firsthand. Technically, to give someone the power data requires the approval of the Senate, but hardly anyone hurt his individual representative to do what he wants. ==== ====  Executive Branch     -Senators can engage in legal regulation, inspection and the organization of the activities of subordinate structures on the ground. They also have the right to temporarily perform the duties of subordinate creatures.  Inquisition    Angels of the Great Court of Heaven, which may be required by the Senators for a special service. Are strong fighters, have specific powers and conceptual weapons. Senators Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are familiar with the infamous Inquisition group called Eiserne Jungrafau  consisting of Dlanor, Gertrude and Cornelia; and SSVD, consisting of Will and other unknown characters. It is implied that Lion might have become the “Watson” of the SSVD at the end of Umineko, and is the partner of Willard. ==== ====  The judiciary     — Senators may serve as judges, to determine the correctness of one or another position, as well as sentences and rulings. They also have an authenticating function where they cannot terminate contracts confirmed by unlawful means. ==== ====  City of Books    is a special world, protected by the sacred barrier. This library is Featherine's propriety. It contains the countless books that are Meta worlds-stories, and Umineko is just one out of those endless books. ====

Umineko's “laws”. What are they? Who are they?
7th Expansion is an imaginary world where apparently there are concepts and rules that dictate the fate of the entire multiverse. Those laws are the ones created by the Senate,and those are absolute laws that may even surpass the Senate since those laws are absolute and they affect every reality of the verse, even higher ones than the Senate's, embodying the world in the broadest sense. The exact number of rules is unknown, but in Umineko I've known four, and these are the personifications: Beatrice = Love (absolute law) Bernkastel = Death, Stasis, Past and Miracle. Lambdadelta = Life, Change, Future and Determination / Will. Maria = Origin / Creation (absolute law).

In short, we could say that the laws are the embodiment of The Creator's World, the embodiment of all things in nature, aka the Shinra Bansho, which refers to the Universe in a broad sense. Not only the observed universe and the scientific theories of modern people, but also the metaphysical aspect, which is accessible only to the minds of much more powerful supernatural beings (although from their point of view it also will be physics).

Before explaining the rules, I would like to talk a bit about Lambdadelta and Bernkastel, especially to clarify something about the Voyagers: 

Voyagers are "witches" (actually they are conceptually superior) who control destiny. Yes, according to the diary, the gods are those who create destiny. However, Lambda herself says that witches create destiny. But they are presumably in the middle between the people (mortals / those who follow destiny) and the gods.

However, Lambdadelta's statement is not completely wrong. As senators, Lambdadelta and Bernkastel can manipulate the fate of inferior people as they please, and they like to be called "gods".

<p style="text-align: LEFT;"> Voyagers do not have a form, nor a starting meaning. They are abstract concepts, rules related to the Creator, it is said that at the end of their journey of a "Voyager", the latter / or is destined to become a Creator, and overcome the limits of meaning, death, life and all the concepts in general. But Voyagers are unique creatures that do not have their own territories (Conceptual Area). This is the reason why their law work everywhere. And because of that, they are free in their journey: not just traveling between different kakeras, but they can decide if continuing seeking the path to the Creator or limit themselves. However, their unconscious nature already cover the entire Domain of Witches, no matter how high they raise the unstable values of their own individualities. There is no one who has a greater level of understanding of the world (except Creator Witches). They are the only beings who can understand something about becoming a Creator and they are afraid of it. They can see the evolutionary potential of other beings, even if these creatures do not know it or if they already advanced on the stairs even further than the Voyagers.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">All these things that someone can go crazy due to awareness of some heights works inside the very layer (because they can't perceive the higher layer). But manifestations of the Voyagers are always in the highest positions within the layer they are.

The Voyagers are coward beings, afraid to become creators, therefore, despite their potential, they limit themselves to simply being concepts linked by a strong connection with the Creator. In fact, the "Voyagers" are gods that exist at the same time in every layer of the infinite hierarchy, always at the top of each layer. This is their true nature, and their presence is omnipresent, unbounded by the limits of death, dimensionality and concepts. As their absolute form, they manipulate the existence and of lower beings and lower worlds.

But this happens, again, only when they manifest their nature. As loli witches, (which are "dolls" or "avatars." They are the human embodiment of the true nature of a Voyager) they are simply common witches, and can be easily defeated (an example is when Ange has literally destroyed the avatar of Bernkastel in a battle).

This is further explained by the fact that when Lambdadelta died in the City of Books because Featherine's avatar killed her, [https://youtu.be/Yck0iSZuMmE?t=2h53m40s her nature was nevertheless present in the absolute layer of the City of Books. As Featherine confirmed, she had prepared a special place for Lambdadelta to enjoy the show ahead.]

Which is a very strange thing. In fact, when a Meta-Being dies, it should technically be completely erased from existence, since the metaphysical and absolute concept of a being is destroyed. But the Voyagers ALSO overcome this concept, given their nature: as I said before, they are "superior existences" connected to the Creator, and they are special entities: their concept cannot die. As I have already stated, they are destined to become a sort of "disciples" of the Creator, and unless they decide to limit themselves to being voyagers, they will become Creators, sooner or later. Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are laws connected to the Creator itself, who created those laws in the first place. Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are said to be above everyone except Featherine due to them constantly evolving reaching higher places, each closer to the Creator itself considering that their laws encompassess the entire Umineko multiverse and is absolute, thus exist and manifest in every place. About Bernkastel, while yes it is true that she needed to become the miko of Featherine in order to manifest in the City of Books, that is simply because Bernkastel was inexperienced and didn't have any authority yet, or to be more accurate, she was just a witch searching for a miracle to occur and free Rika from her never-ending horrible fate. But then she became her own person, and created a miracle in order to solve the game Hanyuu created, and then defeated Miyo.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;"> Because Voyagers don't have a territory they are limited to, their laws, like i stated above, work everywhere,   and therefore they are free in their journey. This applies to the traveling though the different worlds and this also applies to traveling through the evolutionary ladder. Their nature already covers all this, no matter how high they raise the unstable values of their individualities. Indeed they limit themselves, but their laws are fundamental factors that the Creator, well, created.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">   And factor is, IMO, the perfect word to describe that. While it may be a law, it is actually a factor. One of the factors that keep the multiverse alive, one of the principal factors that establishes the forces of the universes, they are universal factors that cannot have more than one definition as they are what they are, people cannot think of those in other ways, those factors are true, people may not believe in those which means that in their world those factors won't influence it at all, but they still exist everywhere and anywhere. They uncounsciously show their power even in the Territories just for the pleasure of lending someone their powers, that is quite irrelevant though, since their laws are FUNDAMENTAL and they are what make up the world.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">   ^That's just how powerful they are.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;" lang="it-IT">Lady Bernkastel and Lady Lambdadelta

Ok so, i'm honestly gonna start this by saying a few things. I'm directly quoting this from Nia, mainly because Nia's analogy perfectly shows how Lambdadelta and Bernkastel's cycle works in my opinion. Though i actually did change most of the analogies, tmainly because the ones i thought of fit better from my point of view, because my analogies, in my opinion, shows how it actually works, and Lambda is actually the change and the will, while Bern is the stasis and the death; though Nia is still the one who technically gave me this idea.

"Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are like a yin yang where    Lambdadelta is the personification of change, the event that continually changes the laws of the universe through the change of fate of mortal beings, which can lead to a cosmic cycle where the positions between humans and gods change constantly thanks to the human will of create their perfect world and make the gods kneel at their feet; while Bernkastel    , through miracles, discovers the secrets and possibilities / percentages through which humans can make their original goals and desires come true, thereby also overcoming the concept of change since the miracle leads them to a supreme road towards their greatest dream, overcoming even the fatality and the fate chosen by the gods (all included in the fact that there must still exist a percentage above 0% to make that happen); All this leaves Bernkastel to overtake Lambdadelta constantly evolving without a logical thread beyond the level of Lambdadelta (given the nature of the miracle, the miracle will always be higher than destiny, not as important as it is inevitable),       and then Lambdadelta adapting to the level of Bernkastel, this pattern continuing as they spin down the infinite ladder leading to the path of the Creator deciding their own limits and deciding themselves how fast they get there. “

Together, Lambdadelta and Bernkastel embody the world in the broadest sense, they are the laws of the world, the basic laws that decide “how the universe will continue (with Lambda deciding change while Bernkastel decides death and stasis, so that at least the fundamental cycles, like for example the cycles of life, will stay the same and will not go crazy).

In fact, if one of the two doesn't continue their work, the universe will simply flow into chaos. It will NOT make sense. Because if Bern wouldn't exist, then humans, trough their determination and will (thus “abusing” of the powers of Lambdadelta) will change their world and they fundemental concepts as they wishes."

^That was directly proved by this. This is a scan that tells us that Bern, indeed, no matter the will of humans/lower-hierarchy witches, will always manifest her law in those worlds.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">   Lambdadelta is a conceptual law that affects and manipulate change, the very basic meaning of fate and the “how the cycle of the universe will turn to if humans, using their wills as they believe in my power do that” concept; can manipulate life, what will be, how it will be.. Lambda introduces herself and talks about her journey across countless Fragments and countless Human Worlds to grant wishes to human. Although it is only one wish, it can grant anyone infinite power and ability to create an entire universe easily (she can even increase the number of wish to infinite but what she wants is something more that), even turning them into higher-world entities, she can also erased any lower-world beings from existence completely (having high-standard on people does dissapointed her most occassions due they are unable to meet her expectations). Lambda's wishes are absolute and certain, ignoring even how high and great a wish is, once you wish for it then your destiny is already determined and decided to reach there no matter what, even if there are countless roads lead to it or even that wish was becoming a higher world being. Of course, because of Lambda's personality, she never states the time needed to reach there so it could take a moment or an eternity for the wish to come true. Also, more on Higurashi. Bernkastel on the other hand is a conceptual law that affects and manipulate death and stasis, because even if the entropy keep changing and the universe keep evolving, without the fundemantal  static   laws that decide what has to remain the same in order to create a world that makes sense, but also the very laws of the universe, because even if it keep evolving, some laws have to remain the same in order to mantain balance in the cosmic spiral. [https://file-comic-4.anyacg.co/images/c7/af/c7aff53acdedde0fe46f5611e4d68ea08baad167_162043_869_1237.jpg Bernkastel's unconscious nature effects the Domain of Witches and Humans, regardless of their will. ]From certain point of views, Lambda relys on Bern as without Bern's law, the world itself wouldn't even exist since if the primordial concepts, laws and cycles (of death and life) aren't created, the world will just be an ammass of destructive and confused matter that is constantly evolving without a logical way of doing so, but at the same time, Bern relys on Lambda, since if the concepts of evolution and change wouldn't exist, the universe, from the beginning, would have remained a static and consistent globulation of particles and atomos that wouldn't have create any life, any change as the concepts of evolution doesn't exist.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">   Overall, Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are opposed, but do not contradict each other. They NEED each other. (Which can also be a reason about why Lambda and Bernkastel are a sweet couple, but don't mind me, i'm just fanboying a lot, oh my god i ship them so much XD) With that being said, let's talk about Beatrice and Maria, which you might not believe it, embody concepts even more important than those two. Seriously, compared to Beato and Maria, Bernkastel and Lambdadelta are..nothing.

<p style="text-align: LEFT;">

<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0cm">  Beatrice: Law of Love 

<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0.5cm; border: none; padding: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal"> '''Now, an important thing. What is exactly the reason why Beatrice's paw is FAR superior to Bern's and Lambda's? Simple. Very simple. Lambdadelta and Bernkastel embody the laws that they created as Senators. The laws they embody are still absolute to lower beings and can manifest in every reality of the verse as well as the fact that they dictate the fate of the world and they are fundamental concepts that creates and shape the world and all the laws sewn together are the the essence of the world in the most absolute sense.''' However, Beatrice's law is special. It was not created by the Senate in the first place. It was made by God, the Creator itself, who is an entity that cannot even be compared to the Senate. ''' Embodiment of Love, the only, fundamental and essential law created by the Creator. It is the only fundamental law for EVERY world, not just Umineko. Love/Faith's importance and perfection, in the other kakeras, was showed many times, it's simply not a concept that someone can understand, ''' let alone being one with that concept. Beatrice is, however '''. What is so special about Beato is that Beatrice understood entirely that concept/law and used it to create her love-based world ( again, the real truth about the Rokkenjima's Massacre and Umineko's plot in general is “without love, it cannot be seen”, and even the truth to actually understand Beatrice herself). The nature of Beato, who is the personification of the absolute rules of the Creator which are also the fundamental rules of Beato's love-world. Love actually spawns across all the other infinite verses of 7 th  Expansion, love is the fundamental concept that makes up all the fragments existent in the True Sea of Fragments and the realms beyond, it is a concept far stronger far stronger than Bernkastel and Lambdadelta's laws, and that is saying something, since Bern and Lambda are the essence of the world (evolution and its death). ''' Because, love is even more important than evolution, it is the truth the Creator gave us and tried to make us understand, and then finally, at last, Beatrice understood it and created a world based on the Creator's main law, eventually becoming one with it. As a matter of a fact, she was also said to stand on a nearly equal foot with Featherine, TWICE.

<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0.5cm; border: none; padding: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Beato's existence is that of an indefinite maze, that is constantly, always and ever infinetely changing, a maze that has a lethal affinity against Bernkastel, and lacks define shape and form itself. Beato is even more complex than how Bern and Lambda are, and the fact that she lacks a shape, while Bernkastel's law takes the form of a Shinigami, and Lambda's law takes the form of an abstract emotion (the emotions of will, faith and all that stuff).

<p style="text-align: LEFT; margin-bottom: 0.5cm; border: none; padding: 0cm; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal">Even Bernkastel, while discussing with Featherine, had to admitthe incredible potential and talent of Beato. If Beato realized that fact and comprehended it,Lambdadelta and Bernkastel wouldn't even be a match for her. And that was later acknowledged by Featherine herself.

Creator Witches/Great Witches
They are basically Creators, just on a lower scale. They trascend even the very laws of the World. Since i've talked above about the potential of the Magic of Origins/Creation; i'm gonna talk about who are Creator Witches. Creator Witches are the ones who manipulate endless and infinity, and at the same time, nonexistence and existence. Which also mean, that they are the one who manipulate everything: the Creators are the ones who are Omnipotent, who created all the laws of not only Umineko, but every other verse, and Lambdadelta and Bern embody all those laws, and Creator Witches, who are basially Creators but still haven't overcome the very concepts of meaning and life, can do essentially everything that Creators can do, with the difference that their power is on a lower scale. Overall, Creator Witches should also be able to manipulate the laws of the world, since the Creator originated the fundamental law of love, and Creator Witches are basically one step below it, thus, should be able to create and manipulate laws.

Another thing, Creator Witches are said to take tha path to the Creator, and will become that kind of being one day. While this is a thing that was mentioned for the other witches as well, it is more impressive for Creator Witches, because again, Creator Witches are basically lower-level Creators, but outside of that, they are EXACTLY the same; and that link just further shows their connection. Then again, the link is saying that "at the moment Maria is just affecting little things around her", but that was nothing more than a relation to the fact that Maria, in that moment, was just an Apprentice that has just started to use magic, and wasn't able to fully control her Magic of Origins, as a matter of facts,even Beatrice confirmed that she was only able to affect small things around her because of Maria's MASSIVE inexperience.

Still, when Mario finally learns how to use her incredible magic/when she finally realizes that she's one with the Holy Spirit, becomes MUCH more powerful. Maria, given her nature as the Goddess of Creation, is automatically at a higher level. She is one with the Holy Spirit, the chosen one from God, and was even compared to Mary and even Jesus. All of this shows the strong connection Maria has with the Creator. The Creator Witches have been confirmed to be "Great Witches on the level of Featherine". Moreover, they are the only types of gods superior to the "Voyagers", and their "law" is the origin, a rule given to him by the Creator, in fact, Creator Witches are the gods (characteristically and in terms of power) more similar to the Creator, not only given their nature as creators, but also the fact that the concept, the law they use, their magic, is just a weaker version of the Creator's essence and powers. It is not by chance that the Creator Gods are also considered those who will become the strongest creators of the world, and Maria once reiterated that concept, which was pure accredited by Willard, an angel. (Both in the VN and the EP 7 manga).

Featherine Augustus Aurora
"The majestic Witch of Theatergoing, Drama and Spectating. She has tired of life after one thousand years and constantly repeats a cycle of life and death. In the past, she served as the Master for several games as a legendary witch, but her legend, glory, and memory have already disappeared into the past and been forgetten. Only the solenm medal she wears on her chest contains these memories."

Featherine is the strongest Creator Witch. She is the creator and ruler of City of Books, the second known highest realm after the “Boundaries before God” of When They Cry series and she is FAR more powerful than anyone in Umineko, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Egpe-3OEOZ8 and a loli-version of Lambdadelta was killed by Featherine's avatar with a single gesture. ]ANGE-Beatrice as the Witch of Resurrection, who easily overpowered a loli version of Bernkastel would try to avoid fight her as possible and contrast to profile.

She reached the highest layer, the boundary before the Creator, which is forbidden, which involves the formation of the creator himself, aka obtaining absolute omniscience and omnipotence outside all perspectives. Own individuality also lost along with the constraint of being (in any form of life, death, existence, nonexistence and non-dualism) and meaning. This is the final point of travel of the Voyagers before becoming Gods, but they usually did not seek it, experiencing fear, incomprehensible to anyone but themselves. Because of that, as i stated above, Voyagers limit themselves to simply become the laws of the worlds, and while they are manifested everywhere and anywhere except the Room of the Creator, they are still weaker than beings who, while not being Creators, in a sense, are essentially like the latters and can overwhelm the very laws of the worlds (i'm talking about Creator Witches) and Featherine is the one who referred to these heights, managing to survive and come back with truly divine power.

The Creator
It is free from all restrictions, including life, death, meaning, and it is also boundless.

Difference between Magic and Law
While i think it's obvious what the difference is, i'll still write this to not cause any misunderstanding.

Magic is a type of power (which could represent a law) that someone can master and use as a form of Magic, being able to manipulate its concepts and uses on a supernatural scale, or even on a higher scale.

The Law, on the other hand, is literally the rule and its essence ITSELF; the law that, sewn together with the others, embodys and manifests the World in the purest and most absolute sense.

For example, Loli-Witch Lambdadelta can manipulate the Magic of Certainty, which allows her to manipulate the possibilities below 100%. Her law, on the other hand, is literally the meaning of the concept her magic embodys on a more conceptual/abstract/higher sense. While her magic can allow people to do certain things, they have to believe in that very law first, aka, the "hard-workers are rewarded one".

Overall, when she uses Magic, she's using her law in a form of power which she can manipulate as magic and because of that she can do many different type of things, the first one that comes to my mind is manipulating probabilities/possibilities; though this is just one out of the many things Lambdadelta can do with this magic.

However, that is far different from her law. Her law is literally one of the charateristics that together make up the essence of the World, it's the definition of an absolute concept that sewn together with the others literally becomes the world in its complete sense. Her law doesn't consist only on the manipulation of probabilities, the latter is simply a branch of the capabilities of a law, and it is also really irrelevant when we compare it to the law itself, a fundamental and unchangeable rule that defines a branch of the world, and when is put togethers with the others, forms a conceptual puzzle that manifests the world in its perfect sense.

Not to mention that the probability will then branch into absolute concepts such as change and life, concepts that together form the essence of Lambdadelta's principle itself; this also proves how irrelevant is the simply Magic of Certainty compared to the true law Lambdadelta personifies.

Difference between Human's World Chessboard and Umineko/Beatrice's Chessboard
''So, in this blog, i used the term Chessboard many times, no matter if i was talking about the Human World's Chessboard or Beatrice's Conceptual Chessboard. So i'm gonna explain the difference between the two:''

Human-World Chessboard: Simply put, this is a Chessboard where main events that were meant to represent Beatrice's Story (aka Rokkenjima's Massacre) are concluded. In this Chessboard, the main places we find aren't anymore Rokkenjima or the Golden Land, but rather, we mostly find territories like Santa Lucia, the city where Ange lives, Rokkenjima (pre-EP8) and a few others. Another thing that should be mentioned, when Sayo was just a servant in Rokkenjima, the chessboard was just a Human-World chessboard. Because, Sayo hadn't realize yet that she wanted to be a Witch, and because of that, the world where Sayo lived wasn't modified yet. Despite that, worlds like the Underside of the Gameboard where still worlds wof that world (Chessboard), and the Underside is a place where all the pieces that left the game go, so regardless of the type of Chessboard, the Underside of the Gameboard will always be part of a Chessboard. Throughtout the entirety of EP 8, this is also called the World of the future, [https://youtu.be/dd2lqeCGXlY?t=4h34m33s and in this world, the truth about Beato's Cat Box (the top of Beato's Territory, which is even beyond the Chessboard) should have been revealed. This is the world ruled by Eva-Beatrice.] It was stated to be the Real World, different from the one of Rokkenijima, which was also stated by Eva-Beatrice and Erika themselves.As the two Witches stated, the tale of Rokkenjima was its own world separated from the one of Humans. For example, while Eva-Beatrice is a piece inside the tale of Rokkenjima, she isn't in the Human World, in fact, she did't even exist in the Human World, technically. Ange was a piece put by Bernkastel in the Human World on the other hand, since she wasn't a piece in the tale of Rokkenjimaand by the time she became a piece, the tale of Rokkenjima already ended. Not to mention that this world's Cat Box is the Sea of Internet, a whole other cat box different from Beato's.

Beatrice's Chessboard: ''This is the chessboard that was created by Sayo, who wanted to modify her world. As a result, realms of existence that Sayo thought were fitting were created, including the Golden Land. This Chessboard was destroyed by Featherine in the ending as a result of the end of the events and Ange's choice.However, as seen in the finale, the Human World still exists, and Rokkenjima (location of the Real World) as well,further proving that Beato's Chessboard and the Chessboard of the Domain of Humans is different. Sayo mostly thought of creating it because he had a lot of fun when playing/talking about stories with Kumasawa in the Rose Garden of Rokkenjima, so Sayo thought about creating a similiar world to that Rose Garden, where he/she could be happy forever. This is the Chessboard that is meant to represent Beatrice's Ideal Love World, and all the events of those two fatal days in Rokkenjima take place here. To further prove my point, when Beatrice erased Eva-Beatrice, the concept of Magic and her Chessboar from existence, the world still existed, because while the game ended, it is disconnected from reality, and time in the Human World still goes on.''' As a matter of a fact, Beato, after being erased in the Meta-World, regained a body and had to recreate her own chessboard (and since the Meta-World was destroyed but then appeared again, this also shows that the Meta-Worlds are part of Beato's Chessboard), and here, we can see Rokkenjima's main hall as part of Beato's Conceptual Chessboard (this proves that the two types of Chessboards are different because Rokkenjima is supposed to be part of the Human's World, yet now it is part of Beato's Chessboard). To further prove my point, later, it is showed that it is a different chessboard from the one of humans, because Ange literally the broke the boundaries of the chessboard as she was put int he chessboard as a piece of Bernkastel. However, the world still existed, because while the game ended, it is disconnected from reality, and time in the Human World still goes on. This is something that was blatantly showed in the VN, the manga and the anime, especially in EP 4: Ange can literally travel from her Human World to Beato's Chessboard (which was currently in a static state since the game between Beato and Battler was currently arrested), and when something happens to Ange in the Meta-World (worldof Beatrice's Territory/Chessboard), she isn't affected in the Real World. There are many other examples that further proves my point in the VN, the manga, and the anime.

Something that further proves my point about different Chessboards existing is that Bernkastel had to create a bigger Chessboard than Beato's.

Quantum Mechanics
Here I will consider some data concerning the quantum mechanics and scientific theories, which are used in the 07th-verse. Many may be surprised, but 07th-verse is actually very materialistic. In-universe there are some scientific theories, in which there are additional dimensions and interdimensional universes. The author refers to the Everett's many-worlds interpretation explaining the existence of probability worlds. The author says that the observer of a quantum world is outside the physical laws. The observer must be external to the object of observation (this is an important thing). Dead and living cats are both in the Schrödinger box; existing in all possible states at once. This is an important theme in the works of the author. When the author talks about the cat box, he refers to the Copenhagen Interpretation and the Many-worlds Interpretation. All parallel worlds lose their meaning when the box opens, or in other words when you finally 'observe' what is inside the box: an alive or a dead cat. Losing meaning means that when you open the box, only one possibiliy becomes true, but all the other possibilities becomes dreams for you, even if they really exist on the other side. The structure of the cat box is an undefined wave function, where all possible states (numberless truths) exist simultaneously before observation does not cause a collapse of the wave function, because of which all possible truths merge into some one truth.

Shinra Bansho
The term "Shinra Bansho" (森羅万象) means "all things in nature". In-universe this is used to refer to the Universe in a broad sense. Not only the observed universe and the scientific theories of modern people, but also the metaphysical aspect, which is accessible only to the minds of much more powerful supernatural beings (although from their point of view it also will be physics). I have already spoken about the wave function and higher dimensions. In these far higher dimensions there are also unimaginable beings. Between the real (white cells) and supernatural worlds (black cells), there is a realm that is called the reverse side of the (chess)board or just the Warp (ワープ). There's no time and there's no place (even from the point of view of the supernatural world where the wave function works). Nevertheless, any place and time is connected with this world. Also above the ordinary worlds there is some understandable transcendental universe, where any time, place and coordinates are deviated. But the ordinary world and this transcendent universe are somewhere in the beginning of the conceptual hierarchical ladder. Moving along the steps means understanding the concepts of an increasingly higher level. Please note that concepts may exist higher than worlds where these concepts work. Higher there are high-level immaterial forces and laws and their combinations which became toys for curiosity of the being that reach them. Even higher there is an infinity-like concept, which can not be understood even by a being that has reached such a level. But then there were more and more such things. And then there is the top, through which being could not just pass. Everything is absolute incomprehensible. This level exists so high that even the ladder disappears, there is no even "under" because the value of the steps is lost. It was the "peak of all things". Nevertheless, there are things that can break the mind of even a being that return from the peak of all things. Most likely these are concepts from that absolutely incomprehensible conceptual wall. In any case, they are still part of Shinra Banso. All things in Shinra Bansho can be reversed and there are innumerable mirror worlds for these revisions.



I would like to thank Dark for the last Japanese statements, and for the statements Ryukishi07 said in the past.

Without him, i would have never find those!
