[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 6605626, member: 6696971"] You pass the avalanche and the dead ice troll. Carrion birds are picking at the carcass and making quite the noise, thus drawing your attention. In the morning sun, a glint of light on a fine piece of filament catches your eye as you do. It is attached to a splintered piece of perfectly polished, worn wood. The Fey Panther cat-gut string of your destroyed bow. You mark your way for your companions easily enough with your charcoal (or whatever it was that you spent the AG on). The well-worn path of travelers cuts through a dizzying array of forks, but it is not difficult for an accomplished tracker to follow. You find the end of the trail through the sparsely snowed canyons an hour into your trek. You're looking up at a sheer climb some 100 feet. At the top is a simple elevator with a winch and pulley system and a medium-sized boulder as counterweight. You could attempt to climb the thick ropes that are tied to the boulder but they are clearly covered in a sheen of ice. The stone-face before you would take more time to climb, and is also icy here and there, but it is indented and notched all over so hand holds are readily found. There is a 60 linear foot, field-stone wall spanning the landing up top and there are no signs of any monitoring guards or laborers. [/QUOTE]
