Lore questions about Cain

I think it's more like reality is made of layers, and everything is present in every layer but the "rules" of the universe mean it might manifest as something markedly different. But they're not alternate versions like people from the Mirror Universe, they're the same things from a different perspective a bit like how things work in the Umbra.

At least, at was the plan, but the world is "broken" and by the 21st century it's coalesced into way less than the infinite possibilities that used to exist. Separating the umbra from the physical world was probably involved but I think it started with the angelic rebellion in prehistory, of course even angels existed on different layers too so whether that actually literally happened is also up in the air.
