Description

The Shadow Palace is a large black structure shaped like a castle. This magical space serves as a gateway from the realm of the living to the realm of the dead. It exists within Clover Castle, the capital of Clover Kingdom. The internal structure of the palace is shaped like a giant sephirot, with ten spherical rooms connected by corridors. The walls and floors are made of stone blocks, and the vertical corridors have floating blocks to facilitate travel. After Yuno Grinberryall's magic stone enters the palace, an eleventh room forms with the large pedestal for the stone,which will complete the elves' reincarnation.

The ancient elves allowed humans to safeguard the magical space, but only the ten Apostles of Sephirah can open it.

Trivia

The internal layout of the Shadow Palace, as well as the name "Sephirah" from the Apostles of Sephirah, is derived from the Sefirot in Judaism.

The location and position of the eleventh chamber that appears in the Shadow Palace corresponds to Da'at ("Knowledge"), representing the point where all ten Sephirot unite into one.
