	The worn spine of this well-used, beaten-up, leather bound book is starting to come apart. Though the book holds hundreds of pages, many of them are blank. The author, [[Wyr'palja]] appears to have divided the book into twenty-five sections, one for each ability. Each section lists a number of charms for that ability, followed by blank pages, as if the author left room for further notes later. The sections are unequal length, with a martial arts section at the end reserving nearly a quarter of the pages. Each charm describes a theory of how it works, what it does and notes on the experimentation taken to learn it. Enough information is present that a student of the appropriate type could learn the charms using the book as a trainer. All of the charms except the martial arts section are solar charms. The martial arts section contains four complete celestial styles.		The worn spine of this well-used, beaten-up, leather bound book is starting to come apart.

	*Detailed notes on a project undertaken by Wyr'palja and around a dozen dragon-blooded to develop [[exalted:MartialArts/EternalMaterialStyle\|Eternal Material Style]], a style based on the five magical materials. By emulating the magical materials, the dragon-blooded were able to initiate into the celestial martial arts. The style is very long (18 charms), starting as a full terrestrial style, turning into celestial about halfway through. Being project notes, this section is not a complete manual, but the reader could probably figure out the style if need be.		*Detailed notes on a project undertaken by Wyr'palja and around a dozen dragon-blooded to develop [[exalted:MartialArts/EternalMaterialStyle\|Eternal Material Style]], a style based on the five magical materials.

	*A section containing observations on an order of dragonblooded warrior-monks known as the Vermillion Sentinels, and some charms of a [[exalted:MartialArts/VermillionSentinelStyle\|celestial style]] that they used to fight demons. She didn't like their technique or philosophy, considering both to be "useless if the [[Yozis]] broke their oath". The rest of the section contains notes on a partially developed celestial style, also targeted at fighting demons, but with more of an eye towards their permanent destruction and using their limit profiles against them. The style is not finished, but could possibly be used as a starting point to develop such a style, particularly with the notes on demons from her [[Wyr'palja's Spellbook\|spellbook]].		*A section containing observations on an order of dragonblooded warrior-monks known as the Vermillion Sentinels, and some charms of a [[exalted:MartialArts/VermillionSentinelStyle\|celestial style]] that they used to fight demons.
