The target sees Nathan grasps one of the vibrant red threads of fate emanating from his target and, only possible with consent, severs the unbreakable connection. He pulls out another cord from the mirror, visible to all while outside the reflector, stemming from his reflection, and ties the two together.
Connected, the two are tied by fate, always perceptive of the thread and affect each other so much more.
Conditionally Costless:
If the target is partially possessed by a ghost invited by Nathan, he can instead bind his reflection to the damned, skipping the process of pulling the thread into the mirror and instead binding the two within the mirror realm.

Polamedes withdraws some small nanobots from inside his body and lets them crawl to the end of his finger and into his eye. They pull his eyelids apart and crawl under and over his eye physically pushing it out of the way and dislodging it slightly as they do, taking measurements while doing so. After a few seconds they start forcing the eye out of the socket. They haul a still connected eyeball to the location of placement spooling out more and more retina wire as the eye is stretched away. Then the eye is sliced and pressed into position while the retinal connection is severed and coiled around the split eye to form a sort of antenna. The trailing retina cable is slowly reeled back into the eye socket before needing to be manually repositioned by placing the finger back into the empty hole and re-growing the eye with more nanomachines. Slowly pulling thin strands from the body and gluing the burgeoning eye back into place.
