"Alrighty then. So, there was this alien race called Incubators, or Kyubey for short. Kyoko is strangling one right now. Anyway, they're emotionless. One day, they found out that the universe was dying due to a lack of energy. So, to benefit themselves, the searched far and wide to find a way to extend the life of the universe." Akemi said.

"It was then that they found Earth. It was surprising for them to learn that beings with various emotions could get along on such a planet, and why humans created fictional tales of magic and the such. It was then that they got the wonderful idea to take advantage of emotions and magic to create magical girls." Mami said.

"Becomin' a magical girl is very simple. First ya gotta wait for a Kyubey to approach ya, then make a wish. This starts the contract. Once this happens, your soul gets painfully ripped out of your body and placed into a gem fittingly named a "Soul Gem" to make ya less likely to die. It also basically turns you into a zombie." Kyoko said.

"This is where beings called witches come in. Witches are what happens when a once bright soul gem turns too dark, and becomes a grief seed. Witches tend to hide in labyrinths, luring humans in to kill them and become stronger. When defeated by a magical girl, the witch drops a grief seed, which is used to purify the soul gem. The main cause of becoming a witch tends to be despairing." Homura said.

"This is where Walpurgisnacht comes in. Walpurgisnacht is an incredibly powerful witch, which happens to be a mixture of witches as well as magical girls who died from other means. Walpurgisnacht arrives once a year in a random location on a specific night. Specifically, April 30th. As stated by Mami, a Walpurgisnacht's very presence could cause the deaths of hundreds of innocent people, as well as cause extreme property damage, among other things. No magical girl has defeated it alone, which isn't the case for most witches. Even a skilled quintet could have a hard time defeating a Walpurgisnacht if they haven't memorized the area. This year, Walpurgisnacht will hatch the day after the barrier is broken." Homura said.

"This is why Walpurgisnacht needs to be defeated at all costs. Otherwise, the Earth is doooooooooooooommmmmmeeeeeeed. So, was the explanation satisfactory?" Akemi said.
