Yeah; I've always been fascinated with the idea of a Celestial with
twin Malakite and Lilim Resonances, though I've always approached it
from the idea of a Gifter picking up the Malakite Resonance, rather
than the other way around.  But you're right; surprisingly, there
doesn't seem to be anything saying that Yves has never handed out the
Lilim Resonance.  Perhaps that's because, although the Brights are
indeed a Choir, they may be the only Choir that doesn't have a
Heavenly Resonance - just an Infernal one that's put to better ends.
All Bands, save the Lilim, change their Resonances when they Redeem;
since the Lilim don't, and since there are no Heaven-born Brights
(with the arguable exception of the Bright that Lilith and Blandine
created from Mira Klein's Remnant), a case can be made that whatever
their Resonance is, it isn't Divine.  And if it isn't Divine, even if
it isn't Infernal either, can Yves' Distinction [i]really[/i]
duplicate it?
