Arc: 95% — Has successfully integrated his emotional capacity with his magical output, shedding his cold isolation.

- The Judicial Hearing: ONGOING — The legal battle for the "Sovereign Residency" of the Grey Union.
- Public Sentiment: SHIFTING — The Capital citizenry is viewing the Union’s magic as a thing of beauty rather than a danger for the first time.
Faction Attitudes

- The Student Body: UNITED — The rivalry between fire and ice students has been replaced by a singular "Grey" identity.
Environmental Baseline
- The Grey Sky: The mercury-tinted sky over the Academy has stabilized, no longer fluctuating with the Chancellors' moods, but humming with a constant, shared power.
- Mana-Bleed: The physical boundary between Mira and Dorian's magic has dissolved; their casting is now intrinsically linked.
