For both stances and enchantments, I think the energy cost should be paid differently. A small percentage of the energy cost, a larger one for enchantments and a tiny, if any, percentage for stances, should be paid up front. After that, the energy cost is spread evenly over the duration of the effect. And, if the effect was ended early, no more energy would be paid. I say this because if you are fighting, and you enter a stance, it's not going to take nearly as much energy to enter the stance as it would to hold the stance. As for enchantments, the rules of magic is variable, but since there are infinite duration skills that have a maintainment cost, it is implied that enchantments take energy to maintain. There could be exeptions, such as watchful intervention, because they are more like a prayer to have something happen to you in the future. Also, energy costs could be graduated so that it takes more energy to maintain the enchantment/stance at first or later on.
