When trying to understand Prime I tend to see the meta-world as a metaphorical representation of it, but I can also appreciate the concept of Prime being controlled by the beings of the meta-world. I think it's relative to which you choose as your foundational world, and in that sense both interpretations are valid. Personally, I switch between perspectives, but tend to focus more on Prime as the foundation for the meta-world rather than the other way around.
As for Requiem... I think it was pretty obviously written by Touya but not released. From the first scenes of Requiem:
BATTLER: "......This is... the unique tale I made for you."
This tale will be shut up with you in your coffin, for all eternity
So, no one will be able to read it except for you, there in your coffin.

"......Between just me and her, ...just the two of us, this is the one and only certain truth."
