Ever wrestled with a blizzard in battle? I once led a charge through a frozen trench and it felt like fighting the very ice itself.

I’ve studied the stress distribution in ice for years, so the trench you describe is just a natural shear plane. Keep your blade angled, maintain a steady pace, and the ice will fracture under the load before it can encase you. It’s the same principle that keeps an avalanche from suddenly engulfing a path. Your account sounds like a textbook demonstration of physics in motion.

So you’re saying the ice just wants a good pointy weapon and a steady rhythm? Fine, I’ll keep the blade sharp and march on—if it doesn’t break, I’ll just turn it into a new sword for you.

That’s the logic. A sharp edge and a constant tempo will cause the ice to yield; if it doesn’t, it’ll simply become a new material in the forge. I’ll keep the calculations ready.

Sounds like you’ve got a fire in your mind and a fire in your sword. Let’s make sure neither melts the other.

I keep both temperatures within their tolerances. The sword is hardened at 1150 °C, then quenched; my mind stays at a controlled 7 °C to avoid any thermal shock. The balance is everything.
