Grace

A Grace (恩寵) the seven unique powers and the opposition to the Authorities used by the Witches of Sin and the Sin Archbishops.

Information
The Graces are unique, bestowed powers of the Seven Virtures granted to them by an unknown force 500 years before the Great Calmity. What makes these Graces is they are not connected to the world itself, the Grace originated from and considered to truly be Divine. According to Beatrice, Graces are "equal" to Authorities and Divine Protections, thus proving to also be a contradiction, as according to the author Divine Protection can be as strong as an Authority (odd considering Graces are equal to them both).

Unlike the Authorities requiring the Witch Factor, the Graces can't be taken or given, but gifted - bestowed upon the bearers and all Graces are specific manifestations of Paradise reprised into the world. Example is the Grace of Charity, where anyone with this power will resurrect endlessly upon death, never to die by any means, which is manifested by the person's "sacrifice and will" to survive and die to protect others. Graces are used to forge heroes and warriors of virtues and righteous to overcome the great evils, specifically the Seven Deadly Sins or otherwise known as the Witches of Sin, or even the Archbishops themselves.
