- "Here, where souls gather, your soul defines everything"
- — Narrator
This stage is an open circular platform with ring-out possibilities to all sides. [1] All sorts of fragments, from the mortal world, float in the background.
Astral Chaos is an alternate dimension and the final resting place of souls which have been devoured bySoul Edge. The core of Astral Chaos, the "Star of Chaos", is surrounded by multiple souls which have blended together. Astral Chaos, the Void, the Other World, or just simply Chaos are all names by which this mysterious dimension is known. Chaos can be seen as both a manifestation of Soul Edge's own inner world as well as the "other side" of our own world.
Astral Chaos serves as the key to Soul Edge's continued survival. Each time the physical blade is shattered, the spirit of the sword retreats into Astral Chaos until it's servants are able to gather enough fragments to restore the sword.
