I’m reminded of the Celestial Bureaucrat assigned to the hero’s karma tabulation in “Jade Empire”.

This puts the centrality of obligation and balance into a clear light, that it does. The light of the Flame, even, if I were to read into things a bit?

So who (or what) actually handles the accounting to make sure all the books are balanced against one another?

That would be the Fourth Aspect of the eikone Covalan, which manifests as a Celestial Auditor.

(Who of course does this in much the same sense as Anubis weighs people’s hearts against the feather of truth. It’s a theological metaphor and should be interpreted as such.)
