The temperature spikes noticeably downward, moving from chilly to dead-of-winter cold. A few small pools of water frost over and begin to freeze.Piedra looks up from the faint, confused traces of tracks. Some of them are booted, but of a strange tread unlike any he's ever seen. Mellisande's keen arcane senses detect a magic aura on part of the cave's wall. While the others search, she concentrates on the aura.[sblock=Mellisande]The aura's strength is moderate. Since Mellisande doesn't have Knowledge (arcana), she can't determine school.[/sblock]The piercing cold becomes accompanied by a fog. It starts as just a few wisps of slow-moving icy moisture suspended in the air, but gradually and quickly thickens. Jon is certain that the fog originates from the cave's rocky wall. He points this out, and Mellisande realizes he's pointing to the area of the magic aura.Soon the fog will be so thick that clear vision will surely be limited to just a few feet.</blockquote>
