In the thick of the clash between Snow Lionheart and Geppetto's champion, every eye witnessed that breathtaking pillar of light that pierced the heavens and bathed the barren Ultrass lands in radiance.
From within it, the one who stepped out was no longer Snow Lionheart; he had become something else entirely.
"Pure Vessel: The Anointed War State."
In a form utterly different, Snow appeared bearing a round golden shield. His clothes had vanished, replaced by a Roman-esque panoply that covered only select parts of his body, and a resplendent golden helm through which his golden eyes blazed—lamps of searing brilliance.
The instant he entered this form, the very air around him changed. His presence alone grew vastly heavier.
"Baharat Knight, I'm sorry for what you've been reduced to ..but your suffering ends here."
