    I personally like to think that the high wills formed in response to the faith of the people of Custodia.
    Blasphemous as a whole has a strong theme in faith and seems to be a commentary on religion, extreme spanish christianity in particular.
    So it would make sense that the only thing demanding redemption through punishment, is spawned from the very believe that to be redeemed one must be punished.

    So what I guess from blasphemous so far:it is never mentioned that the high wills ever revealed themselves to a person.i assumed people just made a series of observations about their world and called whatever higherpowers there to be highwills.but they are frauds and not true gods.

      Ahmad's interpretation is pretty much dead-on correct in the context of the original game with no DLC. Multiple mentions are made by various characters about "The High Wills" and the way it is written is vague: The Twisted One called out to anyone, any of The High Wills, for punishment and was answered. Again, being poetic and vague, it implies in these contexts of the characters and the Item Descriptions the idea that "High Wills" was a catch-all term for any Godly Power or Deity (bearing in mind this took place before The Church of the Miracle even existed, when the Twisted One was still human, so he wouldn't be calling out or praying to The Grievous Miracle). Presumably, it makes sense the Church would consider it Heresy to call something else other than The Miracle or Twisted One "God" in Custodia, so another term was used.
      This is my main problem with DLC being used to retcon things the writers didn't have planned out. I'd rather not have DLC that makes it obvious the developers were looking for a more "conclusive" ending than the one in the original game, whether that be from complaints about the story and ending or from their own ideas after having made the game. To each their own, though.

    My personal belief, is that there is a greater cycle in this world where the previous "gods" are destroyed only for the actions of the one who stopped them to become so revered and have so much faith behind them that it eventually just gives rise to a new being/beings that use that power to spread themselves and their wills.

    I believe high wills were just normal creatures living in the Dream who had the ability to manipulate matter and time physical world but not their realm they heard the prayers one day and decided to act reply but they realized they got stronger each time someone prayed to them and abused it penitent was able to kill them, because he was the heretic of heretics so it nullified the extra powers they got from believers and prays

      The High Wills did not resurrect the Penitent one. The High Wills lost the favor of the Miracle. The Miracle itself directly made the resurrection of the Penitent one happen and allowing the disfavored (last son of the miracle and the high will) ones to be taken out.

      im confused, if the cherubs are servants of the High Wills, then how come they were in charge of relieving people from their pain and suffering in Cvstodia, which said pain and suffering is what gives the High Wills greater power? Not to mention them carrying the Penitent One from the heavens after you die, seems like they’re in favor of the Penitent of completing his pilgrimage.

      @@paulkuchnicki6404 there seems to be a third god running around who seems to be more benevolent, at least from a theory I once read, basically imagine the high wills as false god's, a idol trying to take worship away by appearing as three heads or whatever and claiming the work of another, the miracle is more a case of something like the primordial chaos able to do things but not much power up in the old brain case, my best guess is this third god is more like the Abrahamic God, a being working more in the back ground and very rarely if ever revealing himself, but when he does shit goes down fast, effectively if this theory of a third benevolent god who is more like the Abrahamic God, then that could also go with the theory or whatever that's the high wills looked up in their space and saw something that made them cry gold for all time, perhaps what they saw was this thirds god form and sense their not mortal they didn't die horribly instead they just cry gold as a by products

      A more obvious parallel to the trinity would be;
      High Wills = Father
      Twisted One = Son
      The Miracle = The holy ghost
      Personnaly, I thought the fourth visage would be revealed to represent the contrition of forgiveness, since christians values without forgiveness at the end gives us a world pretty much like Cvstodia. Thought that would have been an interesting twist, but oh well.
