The face dancer Scytale in DM could have been a mimic of the Master Scytale.
Religion (emulation of adults by children) encysts past mythologies: guesses, hidden assumptions of trust in the universe, pronouncements made in search of personal power, all mingled with shreds of enlightenment. And always an unspoken commandment: Thou shall not question! We break that commandment daily in the harnessing of human imagination to our deepest creativity.

Later on it's pretty clear that the master Scytale is the same person who met Paul. I don't think we'll ever have a clear answer on what exactly happpened to turn him from Face Dancer to "Master", but FH had something in mind I'm sure.

Their long term goal for the ghola project was a single uninterrupted thread of memories and knowledge, perhaps Scytale's memories mark it as worthy of elevation to individuality.

if he did, he sure was cryptic about it. but it seems unlikely that he would make a mistake such as this.
Laws to suppress tend to strengthen what they would prohibit. This is the fine point on which all the legal professions of history have based their job security.
