The spell is derived from the symbolism of the Curtana separating the kingdom from the rest of the world.

Basically, when the Curtana slices through a point while the spell is active, it slices through that point in every dimension (both higher and lower). It also slices through anything which happens to be occupying that point in any of those dimensions.

The objects which appear as a result of these slices are the wreckage resulting of the Curtana cutting through objects in unseen, higher dimensions. The analogy given was if you slice a three-dimensional shape, you get a two-dimensional cross-section, and so on further down if you slice it further, and applying that to objects with dimensions higher than the standard three-dimensional space.

Because the Curtana slices through all dimensions with this spell, it also slices through the phases, meaning that it can harm entities lurking within the phases if they happen to be at the point(s) the sword is slicing through.
