   The River Styx and Oaths
   The River Styx forms a critical, chemically unique boundary to the realm. Its water is characterized by the presence of an anomalous third isotope of Oxygen ($\text{O}^$), rendering it non-boilable through conventional thermodynamics ($\text{H}_2\text{O}^$) [^3]. Oaths sworn upon the Styx are unbreakable because the molecular structure itself resists physical or conceptual dissolution. Any attempt to violate an oath results in imm…
