I’m not handing out maps, but I can point out the ridge’s key patterns. The ridge is a series of interlocking frost fractures that run east‑west. The guards favor the south-facing slope because the ice there stays thinner after sunrise. Look for the long, narrow vein of clear ice— that’s the safest path. Once you hit the northern notch, there’s a hidden crevice that only shows up under the right light. If you keep the shot in mind, the frost will reveal the way. Good luck, and keep an eye on the glow— it changes fast.

Sounds like a solid plan. Just remember the thin ice can melt in a blink, so keep your camera ready to snap a quick shot if you spot any shift. I’ll keep an eye on the ridge from my corner— if the guards try anything, you’ll see the ice ripple and I’ll let you know. Stay sharp, and let’s finish this in style.

Glad to hear it—watch those cracks and keep that lens focused. I’ll be on the lookout for any shift in the glow. Good luck, and stay patient, we’ll get those guards out of the way.

All right, keep your head on the ridge. I’ll be waiting for your signal if the ice shifts or the glow changes. Stay focused, and let’s finish this.
