Scytheus/The Five Majestic Stances Of All Creation
Created by the Primordial Autocthon for use by the 5 forgotten Exalted. These grand daiklaves are of master quality and exemplify the standards to which all later daiklaves -in one way or another - aspire. They are:
- PleasantSlaughterOfAllCreation - the Stance of Soulsteel
- Unerring Fidelity of All Creation - the Stance of Moonsilver
- SomberAbsolutionOfAllCreation - the Stance of Orichalcum
- Endearing Caress of All Creation - the Stance of Jade
- Unbound Potential of All Creation - the Stance of Starmetal
While any Exalt can use these daiklaves for the normal Essence costs and attunements, their true potential is far harder to tap. Lytek was present during the initial imprisonment of ThatIsWhichIsNot. And the Essences of the forgotten Exalted struck him as the most beautiful he had ever seen. He was determined that he would atleast somehow salvage them. All he could manage to rescue from TheVaultOfTheMartyrs before it was eternally sealed was their ability to properly wield the Stances. He would reserve these Essences only for those potential Exalted whose destinies he deemed were worthy. Even then, only if That Is Which Is Not was in danger of being released.
Exalted with TheForgottenSpark excel beyond the confines of what their castes usually deem them to be. Somewhat scholarly Dawn castes for example. But with the Stance in hand, they are able to inflict grievous wounds on even gods. A Stance should only be wielded by the corresponding Exalt with The Forgotten Spark. The only exception to this is Pleasant Slaughter of All Creation, which may be wielded by a Solar Exalt with the Spark - for Abyssal Exalted would not come into being for some time after the imprisonment of That Is Which Is Not.

Scytheus: Thanks a lot, Issaru. I forgot the guy's name. Saved me the trouble of looking it up! ^_^
