The main seasons are often grouped together based on their setting.
Hieron refers to Autumn in Hieron, Marielda, Winter in Hieron, and Spring in Hieron, which all tell an interconnected story.
The Divine Universe refers to COUNTER/Weight, Twilight Mirage, PARTIZAN, and the upcoming PALISADE which all take place in the same universe but separated by huge amounts of time, so those seasons are considered largely stand-alone.
Sangfielle takes place in a new, stand-alone universe.
