Though Excerpts and Candidates are both human components of Divines, they differ in their purpose. Candidates tend to fulfil more of a component roll - they are used by their Divines for additional processing, or for other purposes - while Excerpts have a greater role in determining which action the pair should take, and how resources should be allocated.

Excerpts are the operators of the Divines in the Twilight Mirage. They fulfill the role known in other cultures as Candidates or Elects.

While Divines are sentient beings, they are still paired with humans when performing their tasks. The influence that the Excerpt has over the functioning of the Divine (and vice versa) varies from Divine to Divine. Compared to Candidates and Elects of Divines, Excerpts have a greater role in determining which actions the pilot/Divine pair should take and how resources should be allocated.

Excerpts take a new name along with their position. The name is a line excerpted from the Divine Fleet's holy books, which may be abbreviated to a single word.
