Profile

Origin

Shekinah (שְׁכִינָה) is a word of Hebrew origin denoting the omnipresence of God as defined in the Torah, which literally translates to "dwelling" or "setting". The Kabbalah associates Shekinah as a feminine aspect of God.

Design

She appears as a bald woman's head, with entirely white skin and golden lips, eyebrows, and wings protruding from the back scalp. Like Mem Aleph, she has an open third eye, and her irises resemble hypnotic spirals. On her profile is a crack containing three more faces: one smiling, one neutral, and one angry, which are partially obscured and potentially represent the Three Wise Men, all having the same gold eyelashes and lips, and also golden teeth. Behind these faces is a starry purple sky.

Shekinah is the true form of the Three Wise Men, who transform into it by using the Cosmic Fruit jointly gathered by the protagonist and Alex in the Womb of Grief, which Demeter had delivered to them. She is implied to be an avatar of the Great Will.
