An alternative, simpler, interpretation uses यजति (Yajati), Sanskrit for sacrifice, reflecting the name and theme of the quest.This can either tie into the sword's relationship with Excalibur Umbra, with Umbra being Latin for shadow or to the weapon's passive ability to cloak its user.Σκιά (Skia) is Greek for shadow, while जाति (Jati) is Sanskrit for birth.

However, there are no Nikana stances containing finishers.
