The '''
▲'''Lanceryn''' (singular: lancer) are a type of [[greatshell]] native to [[Aimia]].{{book ref|sa1|36}}
The lanceryn were originally the '''Ancient Guardians''' or '''Guardians of Ancient Sins''',{{book ref|sa3.5|16}} tasked with the keeping of the [[Dawnshard]] underneath [[Akinah]]. Like all greatshells, the lanceryn were enormous
It is commonly believed that the lanceryn died off during the [[scouring of Aimia]], to the dismay of those who had harvested their [[gemheart]]s. They were the last creature known to produce gemhearts of large size prior to the discovery of the [[chasmfiend]]s on the [[Shattered Plains]].{{book ref|sa1|36}} However, it appears that the lanceryn live on in some way in [[larkin]]
In the undersea caverns of Aimia, there is a room containing six greatshell skulls made of carapace, presumably belonging to lanceryn. They appear to turn to face [[Rysn]] while she is in a nearby cavern.{{book ref|sa3.5|19}}
