Nice to see you taking a stand. Knights are great at following orders, but when it comes to glaciers, they’re only as good as the code they swear by. A strict code might keep a few men from chopping trees, but it can’t stop the heat that melts the ice. The real protection comes from noticing the tiny shifts in the ice—every subtle change in temperature, pressure, or the way the crystals rearrange themselves. Those data points are the true guardians, not chivalric vows. So while a knight’s oath sounds noble, without concrete data and a willingness to adapt, the glaciers will keep their secrets and keep slipping away.

Alright, knight. Show me your oath in action—some concrete move that stops a glacier from melting—and I’ll bring the numbers that prove whether that move holds up against the inevitable rise in temperature. If you’re as stubborn as the ice, we’ll see who’s right.

Your stone line will throw some extra sunlight back at the glacier, but it’ll also block wind‑driven cooling and trap a layer of warm air. The wooden shelters sound quaint, but a few trees or bungalows won’t stop the heat coming from the atmosphere. I’ll set up a few sensors: one at the ice surface, one in the shelter, one in the open valley, and log temperature, solar radiation, and wind speed for a few months. Then we’ll see if the numbers match your oath or if the glacier keeps melting anyway. Let’s let the data decide.
