==== Komashi machines ====
The [[father machine]] and its prototype, created by scholars on [[Komashi]] to extract [[hion]] from the [[hijo]], was described by [[Hoid]] as having been Awakened with Commands.{{book ref|yumi|39}} The father machine was Awakened using something other than Nalthian Breath, but the exact method is unknown.{{wob ref|16178}}
 
== Strains and Varieties ==
{{theory}}
Awakening as a term refers to a variety of different systems revolving around the application Investiture and Commands to grant objects sentience.{{wob ref|16178}} Due to this, systems that are referred to as Awakening exist on a variety of planets, such as Nalthis and Komashi.{{book ref|yumi|39}}
 
* '''Nalthian Awakening''' is the prototypical form of Awakening, from which the term originated.{{wob ref|16178}} It makes use of BioChromatic Breath and absorbed colour from its surroundings in order to grant partial sentience or even sapience to inanimate objects, as described above.
 
* '''Komashian Awakening''' makes use of the Investiture of Virtuosity in order to Awaken objects, powered by [[hijo]] instead of BioChromatic Breath.{{book ref|yumi|23}}{{book ref|yumi|39}} It is unclear if it absorbs colour the process of Awakening surroundings like Nalthian Awakening. Due to most observed objects Awakened via the Komashian method being metallic and inhuman in shape and form, the Law of BioChromatic Parallelism and difficulty in Awakening inorganic material may not apply, or may not apply as strictly as in the Nalthian variety.{{book ref|yumi|21}}{{book ref|yumi|39}} This system seems to otherwise work similarly to Nalthian Awakening.
