Claire had seen them, but even she didn't necessarily understand what they were.
She defined them as the World Core and the beast. There was no other way to word it, since that was all she was able to see.

Those two entities were indeed as Claire saw them, but it was a bit more than that.

'Her soul is linked directly to the core of an alternate cosmos.'
She was a practically living cosmos, something that should've been impossible.
