HeWhoFollowsInHisWake
From Exalted - Unofficial Wiki
He is the brother of She Who Lives In Her Name. Through Malfeas, two unbroken filaments wind, one white, one black, making occult patterns through the land of demons. They meet in one place; their other ends cannot be found. These are the beads of He Who Follows In His Wake, who aligns all things in their proper order. The patterns are dense in the Malfeasan sky, where white and black lace war for supremacy in patterns of endless complexity. (FourWillowsWeeping)

- Atlas, 2nd soul of He Who Follows In His Wake, Bearer of the Burden of the Earth (Nero's Boot)
Before the gods rebelled, there was a mathematical certainty to all things, and to all things a mathematical certainty. When but young things, Atlas taught the Five Maidens the gift of telling apart the constellations, and divining wisdom from them; in this, all mortal astrology comes from Atlas, Bearer of the Burden of the Earth. Though sized as a human, Atlas is the strongest force on earth, Heaven, or Hell, for is the mathematical certainty that the world will not end, that Time must bulldoze its way to tomorrow. Now locked away from the mathematical world he once helped forge, Atlas has grown cold and distant, and none may make him weep or laugh. No weight is too great for him to lift, no stone too great for him to hurl. When in Creation, Atlas can give great strength, and take it away as well. For this reason, many conjured him in the dying days of the Solar Deliberative.
