Outer Zone

The Outer Zone is a region of dimensional space that exists beyond Ophanalis. It is where many of the spirits of Okuni (with a few exceptions) go to once they die. Shamans pass through this dimension when they are brought over by the ruling monarch of the Okuni world. A Shaman's true partner's spirit will become infused into her belly while she passes through. The immense mana in that region allows an everyday girl with human DNA to transform into a powerful pregnant warrior. Their Okuni partner also gains a new body, but and the memories of her previous life are locked away.
