Arthur watched the Winter Beast's attack patterns, waiting for the moment when the creature gathered mana for another of his continuous assaults. The preparation phase would provide the brief vulnerability window they needed.
There, the Winter Beast began channelling energy for what appeared to be his most devastating area-of-effect attack yet.
"Now!" Arthur commanded.
Immediately, multiple stunning effects struck the Winter Beast simultaneously. Arthur's Shadow Bind activated, causing the creature's own shadow to rise like dark tentacles that wrapped around his massive limbs and held him in place.
Aether's Space Lock landed perfectly, crystallising reality around the Winter Beast's position and preventing any form of movement or escape.
The Cackle Queen's Nightmare assault struck his consciousness with psychological force enhanced by his reduced mental defences, flooding his mind with paralysing visions.
