 This Celestial Martial Arts style was born from records of his life and deeds written by the ghosts of forty-four Solar and Sidereal martial artists who witnessed Walker’s work, for could not pass into Lethe before leaving behind testimony of this act of greatness. After the Usurpation, the living Exalts who joined the second great crusade to save Stygia found these records, and the Underworld Finial Style was born of their attempts at reproducing them. It emphasizes the concepts of redirection (in the city’s aspect as a finial), enduring (in the city’s aspect as a bastion against the wilderness of the Underworld) and gathering (in the city’s aspect as a collector of the Underworld’s prayers).
-But what of [[MartialArts/AmaranthineFinialsofStygiaStyle|Amaranthine Finials of the Grand Necropolis]], the Sidereal style with which Walker at Sunrise educated Stygia into its role at the center of the Underworld? That remains to be rediscovered, for no amount of written descriptions can teach their readers of the terrible, blasphemous things that were the lightning storms of the timeless Underworld, nor of the dreadful words of hate and spite and longing the Neverborn whispered in their howling winds. Perhaps the current incarnation of its designer, curiously named Walker at Nightfall, could reconceptualize the style from vestiges of memories of his former life.

 She then channels the energy fueling the enemy attack into an eruption of reddish purple Essence that engulfs any one enemy within range. This is resolved as an unblockable unarmed Martial Arts counterattack, using her full dice pool and adding the negated attack’s post-soak damage dice to the attack roll. This may increase the dice pool beyond the usual limit, but the finial may not add further dice to the attack roll with other Charms, not even in a Combo. Automatic dice or successes from effects already in place (such as scene-long Charms) still apply to this counterattack as normal. This attack always inflicts lethal damage, and it deals aggravated damage to the undead and to servants of the Neverborn.

−	The history of this style harks back to the time immediately following the Primordial War, and to the life of one Walker at Sunrise, ~~a Serenity~~ Caste Sidereal of no little prowess. He had fought at the frontlines, and it was he who reported to the other Sidereals that Malfeas had been felled. He had guided many Exalts during the war, evaluating their strategies and developing techniques for the Solars to strike at the transcendent Primordials. Among those, the Dawn Caste Solar called Wings Spanning Creation was by far the dearest to him. He cherished her dearly and spent more time with her than even her Lunar mate. So, he grieved terribly when she died, right after the end of the war, from a wound inflicted by the Holy Tyrant which forever refused to heal.	+	The history of this style harks back to the time immediately following the Primordial War, and to the life of one Walker at Sunrise, an Endings Caste Sidereal of no little prowess.

He had guided many Exalts during the war, evaluating their strategies and developing techniques for the Solars to strike at the transcendent Primordials.

So, he grieved terribly when she died, right after the end of the war, from a wound inflicted by the Holy Tyrant which forever refused to heal.

	Listening to word of a bleak reproduction of Creation in which the higher souls of the regretful and the stubborn lingered in a pale imitation of life, Walker traveled to the Underworld in the hopes of finding his Solar beloved and beg forgiveness for his inability to save her. Indeed, he found her, and even if her smile was not as radiant in death, he still fell in love with her all over again. So, Walker swore loyalty to the ghost of his dearest, even above his duties as a Vizier, and the two roamed the Underworld together, challenging its spiteful storms and eradicating the many foul monstrosities that roamed its vast and lawless wastes. They joined the first crusade towards the center of the Underworld, and they were present when the decision was made to build a fortress against Oblivion. It was in the first building of what would become Stygia where Wings Spanning Creation accepted the call of Lethe, leaving her dear sifu and companion alone once more, but this time with a purpose.
