Not In Vain (1)

Baddan's spears were not strictly meant for violence. In fact, they weren't actually meant for violent actions at all.

The golden spear, Hefty Peace, cut off familiar sensations, and consciousness for those it touched, or vice versa – aside from Baddan – leaving them in the most perfect state for advanced meditation within the hallowed grounds, something that was done before the gleaming amber rock.

The dark spear, Hefty Rebuke, could sent those whom Baddan deemed to have broken the sacred rules of his society, within his own clan, past the clouds, and into what all his kin called the Benevolent Wrath – a place past the ordinary pitch darkness that the normal eye could see. Those who had been sent there, claimed that the only thing one could see that far up, was the tip of the mountain, and that everything else seemed to be lost in a ungodly nothingness.
