Aloha Doyle, I still haven't figured out the full ramifications of the proliferation (or even if it will happen). I initially envisioned the 777 'petals' as an floral 'umbra' (great that you picked that inference up!), with each 'petal' varying in distributive degrees regarding their populations of Gods and Demons. In other words, the 777 'drasils' would run the gamut from being "God's only" petals to "Demon's only" petals. Using the umbra metaphor, the whole 'flower' would be shadowed in many shades of grey. Way back in the first UF story arc, where Cevn is contesting Isilblius, there was a foreshadowing of the need to remove the strict segregation between Gods and Demons in order to achieve Balance. At that time, Cevn did some things to set this into motion. Without giving too much away, I don't see Keiichi, Miyuki and Natsumi's participation in the Seven as influencing a major 'rewrite' of the Yggdrasil-Vanagdrasil status quo. If anything, the diversification of the new 777 'drasils' may be greatly influenced by them. Some questions: if the Seven recreate the Everything with the 777 Multiverses, will Yggdrasil and Vanagdrasil will interpenetrate each other even more?; given the added Multiversal space available to Gods and Demons, will this create a greater diversity of interactions between the two? I could write in something new to offset the dualism of the 'drasils', but doing so might stray deeply into another 100 chapters...
