The Unpinned is the second and true final form of the boss at the bottom of First Pin, what The Anchorheld was holding down until the moment it died.

Overview

Where the Anchorheld was slow and enormous, the thing inside it is fast - it emerges the instant its shell falls and picks the fight straight back up without a pause. This is the form that actually settles the descent: a party that only downs the Anchorheld hasn't finished First Pin, because the Unpinned is what the Anchorheld existed to keep pinned in the first place, and the survey isn't complete until it, too, is put down.

Mechanics

The Unpinned speaks only once, at its own death, and it is the last line of the whole descent:

"The iron held one door. There are more doors than irons. Climb."

It carries no wound-line and no other mid-fight dialogue - the entire encounter's remaining tension is carried by its speed after the Anchorheld's slow, sustained tank fight, not by scripted phase changes.

Access

The Unpinned only exists once The Anchorheld has fallen; it cannot be found or fought on its own. Its death is what Pinwright Ashina Yoi checks for when a party reports First Pin complete.
