"That which comes from the beyond this realm, a place beyond time. An Oni of perpetual darkness, that eats the flow of time itself."
—Horō, describing the Metagnost at the end of Chapter 11.
Metagnosts are the fourteenth large Oni introduced in Toukiden: Kiwami, first appearing in Beyond the Known. One of them is the game's final boss.

Described in ancient records as "one who appears from a land beyond knowledge. They haunt Temporal Schisms, appearing in a certain age when they hear of a Slayer there, and are thought to summon other Oni.[2] 文献に残っている名前は「イヅチカナタヨリ来タリテイヅチカナタヘ去リシモノ」。 時の狭間を回遊し、英雄の存在を感知すると、その時代に出現。他の“鬼”を呼び寄せる役割を持つという。[3] |

Their entry in the Council of Elders records reads "One who appears from a land beyond knowledge." They haunt Temporal Schisms, appearing in a certain age when they hear of a Slayer there, and are thought to summon other Oni. As a result of traveling constantly through time, they are adept at loosening the bonds of causality. 陰陽方の文献に残っている名前は「イヅチカナタヨリ来タリテイヅチカナタヘ去リシモノ」。 時の狭間を回遊し、英雄の存在を感知すると、その時代に出現。他の“鬼”を呼び寄せる役割と持つと考えられている。 無数の時を渡ってきた結果、その存在は因果の捻れの塊となり万物の結びを解く性質を獲得したのだろう。[1] |
