True Will originates from within the individual and could be referred to as their "true calling." In essence it is the idea that a fully actualized person will act in accordance with their personal drive to act according to what they truly need to do. True Will is a central concept within Thelema and a hallmark of the Aeon of Horus. When he is defeated by Touma in Russia, Accelerator's ideas of heroism and villainy are shattered and he abandons them in order to ultimately embrace his desire to be with Last Order in Volume 22, which not coincidentally is the time when he truly awakens with his wings turning white, signifying that he has abandoned limiting structures created from without and embraced his True Will. This manifests in Accelerator's initial "awakenings" with his wings being black as a sign of him being imprisoned by outside moral structures. It is because of these systems that he believes he is locked into his role of being a "villain," which leaves him unable to remain with Last Order. Accelerator may not be a Christian, but up to a certain point, he is controlled by his belief in the notions of "heroism" and "villainy" as they are defined from an outside standpoint. Therefore, from what I can determine, characters in the Aeon of Osiris have their worldview limited not specifically by the God of Christianity, but rather by an existential belief in outside objective systems of good and evil or right and wrong that are imposed on the character from without. However, even this definition is too narrow, as some non-Christian characters, in particular Accelerator, are also described as being in the Aeon of Osiris. In the series, several characters are referenced as being from or possessing the Aeon of Osiris, which is defined (in as simplified manner) as having their worldview defined by the God of Christianity.
#A CERTAIN MAGICAL INDEX WIKI ACADEMY CITY SERIES#
Keep in mind my understanding of real-life Thelema is limited to a perusal of the relevant Wikipedia pages and most of my conjectures come from interpretations of the text of the novel series itself. This goes far beyond being a mere Genius Bonus within the Index series and actually resides at the root of the themes that drive the series as a whole. What you might not know is that not just Crowley himself, but the Liber Al Vel Legis (Book of the Law), the angelic being, Aiwass who dictated it and the concepts of the Aeon of Osiris and Aeon of Horus all originate from the religion, Thelema, a real-world religious philosophy founded by the real-life Aleister. As You Know, Aleister Crowley, the founder of Academy City is based off a real person.
