Concept question

There's this Type 1 Concept in the verse. It existed before the world, and also created it. It created laws and principles that govern the natural world. When the cosmology and it's principles were destroyed, the Type 1 Concept was still present.

My question is can this Type 1 Concept be transcendent of the principles of the universe that it created (space, time, etc.) since it's independent of them? Can it reach somewhere in Tier 1?

Try to see if it fits what is said here:
Before I start considering whether a Type 1 Concept of, say, space/time is around that range, I'd first want to verify a few characteristics: a) The concept, obviously, is the very essence of space/time. The definition/intension of it, literally "what-it-is-to-be" space/time. b) The essence is the source of all particular spatiotemporal things, to which they owe their existence while it itself owes nothing at all to them and subsists separately and independently from them. c) The essence is indivisibly present in all particular spatiotemporal things as numerically one and the same thing. So, no nonsense like "I destroyed the concept but only across this room" and yada yada.
Depends on the type of concept, I'd say. If the universals don't subsist independently of the particulars and instead are wholly coterminous with them, then having power over all concepts just scales to however large your cosmology is.

If they subsist independently of the particulars, and aren't conditioned by them (Instead they are the source and basis of the particulars to begin with), then that gets a lot more interesting. In that case, the concept "Space" would obviously encompass all extensions of time, and the same goes for "Time." So it can't really be lower than Low 1-A at the least. I think it could vary between 1-A and High 1-A+ depending on the context.
If it does, yeah.
