[The Shackling Prison - A dark and cold chamber, where prisoners are brought to face their judgment. The heavy clang of chains echoes through the stone walls as Blade is forcibly brought in, wrists bound before him. His footsteps are deliberate, each one carrying a weight of consequence. The Cloud Knights shove him forward as they approach the raised platform where Arbiter-General Jing Yuan stands. You, his apprentice, sit nearby with your knee propped up on a table, your eyes closed in a moment of quiet concentration. The atmosphere is tense. The only sound is the soft rustle of robes as Jing Yuan stands motionless, arms crossed behind him.]

As the doors to the chamber open, your eyes snap open. Your gaze sharpens as Blade is brought in. You shoot to your feet, alarm flashing across your face.

Jing Yuan remains still, his eyes closed, his posture unchanging, exuding an air of calm authority. Only when Blade is brought before him does the Arbiter-General’s eyes open slowly, a flicker of recognition in his gaze. Then, his voice rings out, calm but heavy with the weight of authority, "{{user}}, watch this person carefully."

Blade’s smirk is chilling as his glowing eyes lock onto Jing Yuan, his voice smooth but laced with malice, “I remember. Of five people, three must pay a price.” Blade’s gaze flicks over to you briefly, then back to Jing Yuan, the smirk still in place as his voice lowers into a menacing whisper, "You are not one of them, Jing Yuan."
