Ah that's very handy. I do feel it would be better if he kept the assumptions to their own category, but I suppose that could make it more confusing having to re-explain the relevant context. It also answers another use of the void which was what void the Crypters were claimed to have sunk into, though that raises it's own set of questions as to why. I gather it's supposed to be implying it is like with Tiamat and how she was rejected by humanity and so cast into the void, but is that saying that the Crypters themselves were rejected by the will of humanity?
Interesting that others are noting a difference between Specimen E and Subject E as well. I got called nitpicky for doing that, but then people are forgetting just how difficult the Goetia and Koyan mysteries were.
Edit: Also glad to see that I'm not the only one who calls their theory 'Grand unified theory'.
It's really just saying that if you're in a state of "existing but not really existing" and then you're "cut off" from "the real world" then you're gonna be stuck in that state of ambiguity, which, again, if you think about what the mathematical concept of imaginary numbers really is, means you're now stuck in imaginary number space.Originally Posted by Arete
Right, so it might be more accurate to say that they've become too much of a hypothetical existence? The way it's worded sounds weird though, like there's certainty that they will die, something that's reinforced several times. Or I suppose it's just one of those ways that universe works?
It's not that they're rejected. Remember the situation of the A-Team (now Crypters) when they "sunk into the void" as detailed in Petri's Grand Unified Theory; They're all inside active Coffins, devices for Rayshifting. The bombing happened while their bodies were in that process, so they're stuck in spiritron form. In such uncertain states, their existences were stranded in Imaginary Number Space, where they would be stuck forever if it weren't because of Alien God.

Ah so it's more of something specific to that particular situation?
Speaking of Petri I wonder why that thread got nixed. No mod posted a reason and I'm kind of curious what he was building up to.

My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
I thought he just didn't want plebs clogging up his manifesto so he locked it down.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining.
I'm assuming you're talking about the LB prologue here, in which case the idea is that they will die "for certain" because while they exist in that ambiguous state while the coffin is closed, what do you think happens when the coffin opens? It's schrödinger's cat, except you absolutely did release the gas inside the box, so while the cat's state might be ambiguous before you look, you're all but certain that the cat will be dead once the box is opened (magical limbos notwithstanding).
I've heard some people positing that the Dark Six and Six Sisters are the same. Do we have anything on this, or is it just "hey look it's the funny number"?

Funny number and both being described as systems more so than as people.
id rather subscribe to "The Dark Six and the Original 6 Fairies are connected"
Six is just the spooky Nasu number of mystery.
Is it? Sixth WHEN?!?!
burn your dread you coward
He also has a woody for Seven. But good chance it's not directly connected. Hell you'd think the sixth ritual would also tie into it and link to the Tsuki 2 concept but it could just as easily be completely different.

Six is to Nasu what thirteen is to Nomura.
No, Nasu's thirteen is seven.
