Afflatus Misery is a battery effect triggered as part of Y'shtola's LD ability, Scion's Holy. Mastering and equipping the passive that gives Scion's Holy also grants the Blood Lily overhead effect. Any action executed increases the overhead counter; when this reaches 3, the normal Scion's Aero turns over to Afflatus Misery. Using the skill will then discharge Blood Lily.
