Theocratic teachings common to the whole of the Ascan and part of the Shou speaking worlds describe the origin of cardinal sin to be external, wrought by the influence of the Nine Hells and Asmodeus. In these belief systems, the introduction of cardinal sins to Materia is commonly thought to be what caused the downfall of the proto-utopia of Metis, and what began the War of the Gods. Some religious sects believe that sin is inherent to sentience, such as Crisei.
