The Nine Eternal Divine Scales (九垓天秤 Kugaitenbin) were the inner circle of Töten Glocke, a Crimson Denizen organization lead by "Weaver of Coffins" Asiz. They had fought under Asiz for a millennium and all nine were renowned and powerful Crimson Lords. They were referred by their leader as "The scale weights that suppress the nine regions" (九垓を平らぐ、我が天秤分銅たち Kugai wo tairagu, waga tenbin fundou-tachi).
Chronology[]
The order in which the nine Lords joined Asiz was: first Illuyanka, then Ullikummi, Jarri, Molech, Huwawa, Ninurta, Sokar, Chernobog, and finally Merihim.[1][2]
Huwawa was destroyed after the City Devourer Incident while Ninurta was destroyed in the Nachtigall Struggle. During the beginning of the final battle at Brocken Fortress, both Sokar and Ullikummi went to the front lines, therefore leaving only 5 of them atop the Werkschale. Sokar was destroyed in the beginning of hostilities by a swift attack from the Flame Haze "Archer of Aurora" Karl Berwald. Molech was destroyed by the combined efforts of Mathilde Saint-Omer and Wilhelmina Carmel, while of the "Pair of Wings", Merihim was defeated by Mathilde and Illuyanka by Wilhelmina.
Chernobog succeeded in inflicting a fatal wound upon Mathilde, but was then destroyed by Wilhelmina, while Jarri was extinguished as the sacrifice for Mathilde's Tenpa Jōsai. Ullikummi, who remained on the front lines to the very end, was destroyed by "Braider of Trembling Might" Sophie Sawallisch as he sacrificed himself to allow Töten Glocke's remnants to escape. The only one of the Nine Eternal Divine Scales who survived the Great War was Merihim, who was to keep his promises with Mathilde.
