Cardinal (Underworld)

Cardinal (カーディナル) is the embodiment of the Cardinal System in Underworld that has inherited the Cardinal System's sub-process of performing error checks on the main process, namely Quinella. At the moment, she resides in the Great Library Room that is linked with the Central Cathedral, but not spatially part of it.

Appearance
Cardinal appears as a scrawny 10 year old girl with brown eyes and curly hair of the same color.

Background
Quinella, in an attempt to usurp the seat of god, took the Cardinal System of Underworld into herself, so that she could have no equal. However, when she discovered that her own mind had reached its limits, she planned to have unimportant memories erased.

Originally, the girl whom Quinella chose as her vessel for the backup of her memories was the daughter of a furniture shop owner who became a nun due to her above average system access authority. She was brought to the Axiom Church by Quinella, and had her Fluctlight overwritten with Quinella's own memories and information. However, in this moment, the Secondary Core programing of the Cardinal System, the system which checks and looks for errors in the original core, took over the girl's mind. Thus began a battle between the two, with Cardinal having struck first, therefore gaining the advantage. However, when it became clear who the winner would be, Quinella casted a ceremony that blocked access to «Sacred Arts» commands within the room, and produced a weapon. In this way, though the two were equal in almost every way, Quinella had the advantage of reach.

Cardinal decided to flee, and took residence within a library which Quinella created. The library itself was not within the Axiom Church, and had fluctuating coordinates, residing within the "unused space" of Underworld. After destroying the only entrance, there was no way for Quinella to enter. Then began the process of recording and erasing her own memories, to make room for more information.
