OK, some speculation on Satanael's world.

Some have speculated, based on the style of clothing (proto-)Mercurius/Lament is shown wearing, and the use of the term "Shamash" for the normal people of the Third Throne, that there is going to be some kind of Mesopotamian theme. Now, one other motif we have seen is astrological/astronomical references. Mercurius's attacks reference astronomical phenomena, and in addition, we know Lament's friend was named Rasalhague, referring to the brightest star of Ophiuchus, the snake-bearer. Beyond this, Satanael is also referred to as the Morning Star, i.e., Venus. According to (((Masonic))) lore, the Tower of Babel was meant to be an astronomical observation site, which is why the Babylonians where the most advanced astronomers of antiquity. This also fits with Satanael, since his emblem as a Throne God very much resembles the Tower of Babel and also the Tower Tarot card (the lightning bolt striking the tower). Another aspect we see in both Mercurius and also Methusaleh in IkaBey is the use of Latin proverbs and poetry in naming attacks. Therefore, my speculation is the following:

-Characters' names will reference stars, planets, constellations, and other astronomical phenomena.
-Powers will be named after Latin phrases, be they proverbs, poetry, or what have you. They will also have to do with phenomena related to the stars or the heavens and the like.
-The society will resemble Mesopotamia (though some elements of Roman civilization may show up, because everybody likes columns and that would actually be another Masonic reference).

How could he be Aka Manah when Magsarion was already an Ashavan while Aka Manah gained the status of Demon King after Varhram's demise?
Also, Vohu Manah's divine eyes would've seen that a freaking Demon King was on it, furthermore, Aka Manah's domain, Jahi, is in the opposite direction of Wahman Yast.

Ashozushta
A giant owl whose back serves as a substitute for ground for the Ashavan who live in Druj Nasu. She's called A-chan by those intimate with her. In terms of status, she's a sacred bird who rivals Vohu Manah, however she has the mental age of a 10 year old girl, as such she lacks any sort of majesty. She dislikes being active at night, according to her it's due to her night-blindness, but of course most owls are nocturnal, as such its exactly as it seems - she's simply afraid of the dark.

Zanki (sense of shame)
The feelings of remorse and shame towards an act one has committed in the past
Druj Nasu is a world filled with zanki, the relationship between Zurvan and Mashyana itself is imprisoned by that very concept.
The same is true for Magsarion who resonated with the demonic tool Mashyag and for some reason reverted to being a child. Incest is the only one who completely understands these corelations, however she remains obstinate in keeping it secret, as such the truth of the matter is unclear.

Okay, according to Masada, the core concept of Zaurid is "thirst". For that sake, Masada wanted her to give this feeling of being considerably starved for something (lmao). She can be said to be heretical when compared to those other Dragvant, who give off strength. Furthermore, given she threw away her humanity for the sake of her purpose, she's developed a communication disorder. Though this can be associated with an isolated ascetic monk like type, in the way of Gudou people, Masada also wanted to give an atmosphere with comical charm to her. He wants people to find her eyes and stuttering cute.

Taurvid's core concept, on the other hand, is "heat". In a word, a sultry idiot. Think of a hot blooded main character, distort him to Evil, and that's Taurvid in a nutshell. Iff we were to compare their deeds towards achieving their dream, if Zaurid is the type to sharpen, Taurvid is the type to become an outright fireball. With his policy relation to strong people not being clad in gloom, he can be said to be an embodiment of the way of being of Evil, under this work's worldview. That is, a laughing villain (remember Kaikhosru's bio, Masada said a big theme of Avesta was "allies of justice get enrage and villains laugh" or something akin to that, and this part of Taurvid's bio is straight up quoting that).

The first throne's story. It's being made available to the public as Masada writes it and is seemingly coming out as a LN in its final form. It's all behind enty which is a japanese patreon-esque site, in which people make pledges in order to support Masada and G as they continue to work on Avesta and future projects. The end goal is the revival of Pantheon, which doesn't necessarily mean as a mobage, since they need to buy back the various rights attached to the IP which are currently held by the creditors (whom greenwood owed money to).

This. I just don't see what it offers anyone. The only thing I'll give it is that the setting, with the Order and Gold, is interesting. Everything else is awful.
The writing is a mess, it tries too hard to lean into chuuni and it ends up with an absolutely absurd amount of nonsense text you're reading either completely without context or just because the writer thought it sounded cool. The action is terrible, Ren loses every single fight he's in, and it's completely inconsistent with its power levels (Ren is essentially a demigod but his completely normal friend can win his fights with the Order while Ren can't? What the fuck?).
Then there's the fact that the game puts its entire plot payload in the final route. It DEMANDS you read every single route in the game just for a halfway satisfying conclusion, otherwise you just get garbage like Ren going into a fucking coma, the bad guys winning, and every single one of Ren's friends dying as route conclusions. The heroines suffer for this kind of structure as well, so there's basically no reason to read it because you liked a certain girl.

So if it doesn't have any merit in writing, action, nor romance, what kind of value does it have?

Trex hasn't finished his chapter summary, so here's this week's glossary:

>Aqulta Jamshid:
Sirius' Commandment. In exchange for the binding of "Remembering all Ashavan living in Wahman Yast", he gains "Holding absolute, forceful authority over them" as a boon. That is, it is a Commandment that has been inherited by the Holy King generation after generation, that allows to use Vohu Manah's authority at will. The criteria for selection are whether or not the Holy Sword Jamshid can be drawn from the stone it is stuck in, as well as whether or not the flowing in information of the people (all those Ashavan living in Wahman Yast at that point in time) the moment the sword is drawn from the stone can be accepted.

Those who clear the above mentioned two trials become Holy King, however, it goes without saying that there's almost no person who can put up with such volumes of information, which exceed the limits of humans. Disqualified people will die insane on the spot, while people who succesfully pass the trial too will lose most of their ego/self. The Holy King is Vohu Manah's terminal, his truth is being a Sensory-like proxy of the Star Spirit's will. Thus, Holy Kings that manage to keep their ego/self, like Sirius, are rare, only a few of those existing through history.

And of course, the information of newly born Ashavan as well as that of newly inducted Yazata from the moment one becomes King thereafter is also added. Furthermore, because those persons who have died return to the earth and become the source of new life, it is not necessary to remember them. However, seeing Sirius' attitude towards Varhram,
the possibility of him still remembering all those who died in the battle 20 years ago is high, but what kind of meaning that has is unknown.

>Multiple Commandments:
Situation when a single person holds multiple Commandments. Because it is obviously a dangerous deed, people that fall under this umbrella are almost nonexistent. At the present, the number of people who are confirmed to have multiple Commandments doesn't exceed five: Magsarion, Bahlavan, Munsarat, Zaurid and Taurvid. Most of these are Dragvant, if a proper Ashavan, they won't impose multiple Commandments upon themselves. This is because there exists the risk of the individual Commandments being mutually contradictory, that is, a case in which Commandment B becomes an obstacle towards adherence to Commandment A, which would result in an automatic Commandment breaking.

Zaurid and Taurvid hold exactly such a contradiction, but at the present they forcibly prevent/avoid a Commandment breaking through their Power of the Ego. That is, from a design perspective, it could even be said that multiple Commandments are the Dragvant's specialty. Essentially, the fact that adherence is impossible is forcibly twisted through Power of the Ego for its materialization. That is, a double edged sword that aims to increase its effects via raising its level of difficulty.

I finish Interview with Bey and I like it better than Dies Irae.

A part of it because the philosophical/ideological conflict is much more pronounced here (take vs give, humanist vs naturalism, light vs dark).

I can't really give a clear answer since whether I end up enjoying a chuuni/shonen type series or considering it schlock is really hit or miss. My best guess is it's do do with how character driven it is. The fights and powers, while cool on their own, should exist more to serve as context for the characters, their struggles and clashes of ideals more than anything else, rather than existing for the sake of having fights (the main reason why I rarely enjoy battle shonen). Dies is really good at this, especially thanks to the way each characters power ties into their backstory and character.
