Miroku Scripture

The Miroku Scripture is a prophetic scripture that appeared in Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. The scripture itself reveals that truth behind the destruction of a world, and the birth of a world. The Miroku Scripture was originally a sacred treasure within the Cult of Gaea. One of the member, Hikawa joined the Cult so he could learn more about the creation of the World. During his research within the Cult, Hikawa found out the Miroku Scripture within the Cult's archive, and learned about the events of the Conception, and Reason.

The Miroku Scripture predicts that God will one day subject to cleanse the World by initiating the Conception, which is to destroy the world and recreating it. Furthermore, it was also predicted that a being neither human, nor demon will be created, which is also the one who will able to alter the results of re-creation, the Hito-Shura. Longing to create a world of stillness and establish his reason, Hikawa betrayed the Cult of Gaea and stole the Miroku Scripture. He would then summon demons and fiends secretly via various occult methods to protect himself and creating Chaos among Tokyo to lure God's attention, so the Conception could be initiated.
