Nullifying gauntlet has no affinity; it is Plain. It holds an old piece of Covenant-stuff, the substance of every Seal-shard, bound into a made thing, and its treasure spirit answers to Wefan, the Weaver.
The Fourth Seal lets power hold the form of a spell. The gauntlet undoes that holding. Turned on another kingdom, it strips away the enchantments standing there: those its lord cast on the kingdom, and those its enemies laid on it, the strongest first. These are the shapes Lasting Shape teaches a cultivator to keep standing. The gauntlet cannot touch an enchantment that is beyond dispelling, or a gift of the gods.
Its hunger is time. After each use the spirit must rest for many turns before it will close its fist again, and a holder who spends it early waits long for the next chance. While it rests, heaven still counts it in the holder's Weight, and the Law of Equals sets that kingdom among heavier rivals.
No one knows who made it. Sealborn say its spirit is the most faithful of all to Wefan, the Weaver, because it knows both how a form is held and how it lets go.
Tellan, the Keeper of Tallies keeps it among the Mnemoliths between Turnings, one in each Turning. If it is lost, its shard returns to him for the recasting.
