HoYoverse Cosmology

==Introduction==
HoYoverse is the collective of every fictional series created by the Chinese video game development miHoYo, where they “create immersive virtual world experiences for players around the world” with game products such as Genshin Impact, Honkai Impact 3rd, Tears of Themis, Honkai: Star Rail, and others.
This blog is for checking the very cosmology of the Hyoyoverse, which is, uh, strong, really strong.
==Sea of Quanta==
The Sea of Quanta is the place where bubble universes reside and where several characters were sealed. The Sea of Quanta is where Quantum Shadows are born and produced:
*It is a Sea full of countless bubble universes and possibilites, each bubble universe has its own set of laws and dimensions, the Sea is also beonf the concept of a 3 or 4-dimensional space.
*Bubble universes in the Sea are composed of 11-dimensional space-time.
*Each bubble universe is bigger than the latter, the bigger the universe's size, the realer it is to the main universe.
*The Sea of Quanta is composed of infinite universes and parallel worlds.
*The Sea of Quanta works in the Many-worlds interpretaion.
*There is no time nor boundary in the Sea.
*From a higher-dimensional perspective, a lower dimension/plane of existence is nothing but a mere fiction that cannot truly harm the reader, while the higher one can absolutely dominate the ones below at their own whim.
*Bernhard's manifold theory exists within the Sea.
==The Imaginary Tree==
The Imaginary Tree is the origin of life itself, as all universes and bubble worlds are born there.
*The Imaginary Tree is composed of infinite universes and futures.
*The Imaginary Tree exists beyond the Sea of Quanta, and transcends reality.
*Each leave is an entire universe in the Imaginary Tree, there are also parallel universes.
*There are real-projected dreams within the Tree, as well as infinite possibilities.
*According to Nagamitsu the data already stored on the server cannot be changed". As for the server itself, according to him there is no limit. The game server called "Imaginary Tree" can use its saved files at any time to generate parallel Universes new one. Just like servers in online games, universes can be opened, closed, or merged, Otto also states that time is only a data of the Tree.
*Einstein stated that the Imaginary Tree holds a hierarchy of transfinite numbers, with the main universe having the lowest cardinal number that is infinite.
*In the Imaginary Tree, there is a place named the Wonderland, it is made of Honkai energy and was stated to have the capability of reproducing "all concepts inside it through human cognition.
*There is a stack of different narratives that makes up civilization, all extending to the "absolute idea of self-being" and "conceptual infinity"
*There are essentially existing mathematical theories: Hilbert's Space, Continuum Hypothesis, Compatibility of Arithmetic Axioms, Rinemann, Goldbach and twin prime conjectures.
*The Tree is a multiverse full of countless universes and Imaginary Domains.
*Guns Girl Z Yog-Sothoth mentions the existence of NS Equation, Rinemann Hypothesis.
*There is a hierarchy of narratives that makes civilization, which extends to the "absoulte idea of self-existence" and "conceptual infinity".
*The CEO of the company confirmed that all their video games’ perspective universes are a part of the Honkaiverse.
==The Imaginary Space==
The Imaginary Space is a 'space' outside of the regular world structure. It is a mathematically consistent space that is to an extent independent from the world. It can be used to form constructed subspaces or to traverse large distances or even worlds.
*It is also where Honkai entities and Herrschers powers to defy physics directly come from, it's also the cause of supernatural influences that leak from the imaginary space into reality, causing Honkai ranged activity across the world. The Imaginary Space is also composed of Imaginary and Real numbers, and there can be an infinite number of imaginary spaces.
*Imaginary Space, ‘The one that encompasses the Tree’, is a place "The rule above all other existing rules" & the place where essence and roots were formed. Backed up again by Otto Imaginary Space is "The place of the root of the universe, the place where the laws meet" the beginning of the place where the Universe was born & where the law met. The Imaginary Numbers framework/space cannot be conceptualized by human logic or defined by physics.
*"Even though Durandal has passed "Absolute Nothingness" Durandal still can't return to the Seed of Sumeru or Reality part. And then Durandal says that if she "stops counting, time gradually loses its meaning". The "meaning of time" in Imaginary Space is also incomprehensible to common sense.
*It is the "membrane" of the Imaginary Tree.
*It is associated with Absolute Infinity.
==Will of Honkai==
The Will of Honkai is a mysterious entity and the supposed creator and leader of all Honkai. It acts as a deuteragonist in the first part of the story.
It is what enacts the disturbance of Honkai in every living parallel world, as well as lightless universes in the sea. It is the will that governs all Honkai and influences & manipulates Herrschers, Honkai beasts, and even another worldly phenomenon to exist in the Honkaiverse. 
The Will of Honkai is superior to all the Herrschers (Except one).
According to Otto, using the "Imaginary Space" is what the Honkai Persona allows the control of the Honkai phenomenon in base reality, in layman's terms due to the nature of the Tree being a transcendental abstract the Honkai has lesser influence on it, so it uses the Imaginary Space to influence worlds with Honkai.
It exists beyond the scope of human knowledge, and beyond the Imaginary Tree.
However, it soon reveals that the Will of Honkai was in fact PROMETHEUS, an AI created by Dr. MEI, she was sent to hack the true source of Honkai (we’ll take a look at it soon) to become/create the Will of Honkai. (By the way, PROMETHEUS is an IMG-Type Valkyrie)
==Cocoon of Finality==
The Cocoon of Finality is an imaginary entity that resides in an unknown imaginary space, it is the true source of all Honkai across the multiverse and can manipulate it as well as creating Herrschers.
Its purpose is to “embrace” civilizations, however, it must do so through bloody trial-and-error spanning millions of years when it resets its target’s planet back to a past state whenever the civilization threatens to go extinct.
The Cocoon exists beyond all dimensions. It is the One True Herrscher Core, for all the Herrschers are nothing but shadows to Finality. The Cocoon is also powerful enough to absorb the remnants of Project STIGMA. Only Kiana was capable of successfully embracing the Cocoon, to stop the Honkai by containing it. It can manipulate all Honkai-related phenomena within the Imaginary Endings. Sa, an entity that is only equal to 10% of the Cocoon was on a goal to reach its level, to achieve her goal, she has to transcend the concepts such as the self, persona, life and death and other attributes.
==Yog-Sothoth, Ontology and Beyond the Multiverse==
Multiverse Vistas was an event outside the game regarding fanworks. In the video, it is stated that there are “countless multiverses” existing “beyond the starry sky”. This suggests that to some extent, fanworks can be considered as truly existing in the lore, albeit outside of the Universe these games inhabit. This is just one possible interpretation.
By this phrase “Beyond the starry sky, there are countless multiverses.”, it should mean one of the two following:
*Two of those multiverses are the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quanta.
*These multiverses exist simultanously within the Imaginary Tree, the “storage” of all worlds.
===The Conscious===
In the 2nd Key Manga, there is a “high-dimensional” hyperspace beyond the universe and even the Honkai that Su will ascend to this place at the end of his life. This sentient hyperspace is an existence far beyond human comprehension. The Conscious holds the Universal Truth of all existence, and the truth that governs even the Honkai itself.
===Outer Gods===
There are the Outer Gods (who are based on their original versions from the Cthulhu Mythos, but not scaling to them) are among the godheads that reside in the Library of Babylon, but still, they existed before and beyond the multiverse, including the Imaginary Tree. Among the Outer Gods are the Mother and Azathoth. By the way, some of their descriptions states that they are transcendent over all creation.
According to her decription in the Library, Yog is stated to be beyond human understanding and comprehension. And by the overall structure we have she is hyper-inaccessible to any form of reality that can be defined and exists as the absolute being of the unierse as she is above any descriptions, and beyond all human comprehension.
Yog is also the origin of all the ideas and concepts in the universe, including Taosim.
The entire “Buddhist” universe to the level it is just a mere illusion within one of her dreamy bubbles.
According to the speaker, the truth that rules the universe is said to be Wisdom itself, that is also God, YHWH, the Tao itself, meanwhile the Gods are just born form their human thought.
And beyond the Gate she guards, she mentions that there is no time, space or language, but pure nothingness and wisdom behind it (which explains too why she is beyond the universe)
The power granted by God whereby descriptions and definition are granted to reshape the world itself. However, the only way to define boundaries as God does is to transcend them, as such God is free from all things, can create all things and so all things are born there
In the end, the Speaker understands every thing about it, and asks Yog-Sothoth to praise God.
===Ontology===
Otto mentions the existence about Ontology in the visual novel, metaphysics are mentioned once again in it.
==The Players and the Real World==
The source of all the scans is here. Throughout the entirety of HI3’s run, the writers have often played with presenting pieces of fiction in the story that reflect other stories within the same Universe. The creation of video games based on ‘real’ events or coincidentally reflecting them would become a recurring trope.
Lambda took this to a whole new level. Ai-chan Lambda got a special event (And limited-time events are stated to be canon) where it was shown that she had made a video game based on the events of HI3’s story, inspired by witnessing those events on repeat in the pseudo-time crystal.
The event is called Honkai Salvation Log, here’s the whole story of the event in this document.
And of course, like most events, the Honkai Salvation Log event is practically canon, as it is explained by one of the Valkyries' description.
She managed this game from a special space of her own making and distributed it to many worlds for players to experience the story. Notably, the game differs slightly from the game we play, as it has special VR capabilities.
Lambda made use of this to channel energy from the many ‘Captains’ of the game (not to be confused with the Captain from the Captainverse). As observers, the Captains collectively counted as higher dimensional beings, giving them some control over the narrative.
miHoYo used this to break the fourth wall, allowing players to project on these fictional Captains.
Honkai Salvation Log is an event taking place in the Honkai Impact 3rd Data Space within Honkai Impact 3rd Game, where the player is the designated Captain to help Ai Hyperion Ʌ to fight a virus named B.B.B.
During the event, the player will travel with Miss Administrator to help her repair the Three Great Modules of Honkai Impact 3rd and save the game. The story of this event strongly revolves around meta jokes on Honkai Impact 3rd, as Miss Administrator and the player will encounter various bugs, glitches and broken scripts.
The first goal of the story is to rescue Ai-chan [O] in the MELCHIOR module, who has met the captain before being captured by B.B.B's minions. In order to do that, Miss Administrator and the player will try to recruit different "playable characters Valkyries" in various broken story levels.
In the second part of the event, the goal is to rescue a red-haired AI-Chan from the BALTHASAR Module, where Bronya N-EX, Raiden Mei Herrscher of Thunder and Water Djinn will join the team.
Lastly, they will head to the CASPER module, meet Ai-chan [P], and fight B.B.B to save the game from being definitely broken.
Why is talking about all this important? Well, like I said, it proves something and it also has some 4th wall-breaking elements.
The Captains see everything in Honkai Impact 3rd as fantasy.
Furthermore, Miss Administrator’s work is to, well, administrate the game.
The same thing works and is proven in Guns Girl Z:
While Honkai Impact 3rd has Ai-chan/Ai Hyperion Ʌ/Miss Administrator, Guns Girl Z has Ling Yi, who is a fictional narrator of the game.
She, alongside the players (Also known as Masters in Guns Girl Z) exist in a “beyond outer multiverse”, which is beyond the HoYoverse as a whole, it is where the players (Like Masters and Capatins), and some 4th wall breaking characters like Ling Yi and Ai reside.
==Conclusion==
The HoYoverse as a whole should be around High 1-B to layers Into 1-A.
