Cirrus is disqualified! A glacier is a huge chunk of ice floating in the water - the description at the top specifically says that directly below is just freezing water. If Cirrus was beneath the glacier she would be frozen almost right away in the water!


Mauja and Amaris' tactics work well together. The orb's scalding path is slowed significantly as Mauja's magic begins to stifle it's momentum. Steam begins to fill the cavern that the orb has created, sending cracks spider-webbing out from where the sphere has halted. Slowly, oh so slowly the orb begins to rise. It is not high enough that Amaris' magic is having a huge impact, but nevertheless she has melted away some of the ice at the top. For those who are stomping and hitting various points of the glacier, it has little effect. However the steam created within is drawn to these paths of least resistance. Often when you strike the ice bursts of hot air shoot through before the ice melts back in on itself.

It seems like the Mauja/Amaris tactics are working the best. For those of you treating the iceberg as a percussion instrument, I'll let you know an interesting fact about water: sound travels a whole lot farther in water than it does on land.

In the water sharks begin to circle. This magical orb has been stuck in that glacier for so long that the creatures have learned that if they wait long enough, some greedy idiot will come by and try to get it out. Inevitably someone trips and falls into the water or some such.

Today they are in for a feast.

The sharks target Erebos first. They aren't much for the Jesus complex he's got going on, but they'll happily make him dinner just the same. Next, their jaws snap at those who have been striking the side of the glacier or are near it.

From the barren landscape comes a deafening roar. A creature - like some ape - giant hybrid covered in a massive white pelt ambles towards you. The thing uses its knuckles almost like paws as it lumbers forward in some weird three-beat gait. Roaring loudly it reveals a mouth of sharp teeth that you assume it doesn't use to eat salads with. In one of its massive hands is a club, which it is now swinging wildly around.

Good luck.


Mauja and Amaris seem to be getting the orb out, only now there are sharks and a yeti-like creature to deal with!
