Wizard attack 3 - Icy Rays question

Okay, this came up last session with our 4th level Shadar-kai wizard. For Icy Rays target it says 'one or two creatures', but under attack it says 'one attack per target'. So am I right in deducing that you can fire one ray at one target, or two rays at two targets (one each), but its impossible to fire both rays at a single target? Or do you just make a single attack roll against the one target and apply damage for both rays if you hit?

Please help our emo wizard out...

You are right: you can attack one target or two, but you can't attack a single target twice.

You can hit one target with one ray or two targets with one ray each. You cannot hit one target with two rays. Compare Icy Rays with Twin Strike's language; if you could hit one creature with both rays it would say "Intelligence vs. Reflex, two attacks."
