ARTIFACT DESIGNATION // DOSSIER S1-02

Obsession Specimen · Soul Stake

▸ REGISTRY: CLASS: CROWN / Metamorphosis / Bone-Wood

▸ TIER: The Initiate Tier

▸ ANCHOR: CROWN / The Politics of the Cranium

The agile butterfly and graceful curves are merely a disguise covering a cruel reality. The butterfly is not fluttering; it has been permanently nailed in place by a black wooden stake. Beneath the most beautiful facade lies the physical curse of 'never letting go.'

THE WATCHER'S NOTE

It has been eternally nailed to its most beautiful moment—is this not the deepest form of drowning love? Do not try to disturb it; it is an unsolvable dead end. When this stake pierces your hair, any unauthorized grasping is deemed a breach of contract. Your free will terminates here.

MATERIAL AUTOPSY

Specimen WingThe wings use a semi-transparent hard silk glue; the mottled texture on the edges is precise, cold, and entirely drained of vitality.

Silent Black WoodA black wooden hairpin handle subjected to high-pressure carbonization. It is not an ornament, but a physical stake driven straight into the soul.

Obsession ClaspThe miniature metal ring at the junction clenches the root of the butterfly dead, cooling and fixing the flowing life force.

THE RITUAL

The politics of the cranium. The zenith is the precipice where mortals stand closest to the divine. Here, Auralia strips away the right to interpret thought. This is no comforting tiara, but a physical coercion.

"With this crown of hellfire, I anoint my destiny."
