Game Appearances
Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne
The Conception is set into motion by Hikawa. It ravages and changes the world into an intermediary Vortex World. It is stated by the Lady in Black to be a cyclical event where universes die, its inhabitants decide the structure of the new world, and are reborn with the laws of the new Reason.[1][2][3]
Shin Megami Tensei V
The Conception occured 18 years prior to the Nahobino's awakening. As a result of the destruction to Tokyo, the Creator, through His miracle—the Shekinah Glory, recreated Tokyo and its people. Due to the death of God by the hands of Lucifer, however, the effect of the Shekinah Glory slowly began to wane as He was no longer there to sustain it.[4][5]

The shape of the world to come depends on who is chosen...and what their Reason is. In the vast Amala Universe, this Vortex World is not the only place where creation occurs.
