ARTIFACT DESIGNATION // DOSSIER S3-09

Frozen Veins · Frost Husk

▸ REGISTRY: CLASS: PULSE / Abyss / Frost-Metal

▸ TIER: The Initiate Tier

▸ ANCHOR: PULSE / The Subjugation of Action

Mortals call it "still water runs deep", but on the dissection table of the abyss, this is a physical cross-section of completely frozen blood vessels. The profound and cold metal texture looks exactly like a frozen river or dried, peeling bark. It carries a suffocating tranquility, deadlocking the pulse.

THE WATCHER'S NOTE

The river is dead; there are only eternal glaciers here. Put on this shackle and put away your sentimental overflowing. It uses its cold texture to blockade your pulse; from now on, only cold iron and order can flow in your veins.

MATERIAL AUTOPSY

Frozen Iron SkinExtremely deep longitudinal textures, coarse and hard, refusing any smooth compromise.

Freezing StrangulationPresenting an unclosed forced arc, like spreading frost, contracting and pressing inward on the flesh.

Dead TextureErasing the metal's reflection, leaving only deep shadows of interwoven grey and white, the ironclad proof of time standing still.

THE RITUAL

The subjugation of action. The wrist is the anchor from which desire takes flight. Whether forged of metal or woven of withered vine, they are miniature manacles declaring her sovereignty.

"With this invisible pact, I bind my acolytes."
