The Blackwood estate's chamber trembled, its walls groaning under the weight of an ancient power unleashed. The Soulbound Warden raised his frost-forged greatsword, its blade gleaming with a light that seemed to freeze time itself. Icicles erupted from the ground where the blade passed, jagged and deadly, while a spectral gale howled through the broken walls, carrying the chill of a thousand forgotten winters.
Charles barely had time to roll aside as the Warden swung down, the impact shattering the marble floor into a mosaic of cracks. A wave of cold magic surged toward him, creeping like death itself, its frost biting at his skin. The Lust Sync interface flared, its crimson text a lifeline in the chaos:
> **[Lust Sync Boost Active: Cassandra – Forbidden Ice +30% Resistance to Frost Magic]**
> **[Warning: Target is Soulbound Entity – Level ??? – Unknown Weaknesses]**
