At the distant Fire Blast, clearly visible despite the trees, Chryssa took a deep breath. Time to go. She turned back towards Auld, floating mute and imposing behind her, and placed one hand on the center of its chest. "Teleport us in," she said, and the chalked symbols around her hand glowed beneath her touch. The world blurred, stretching vertically, and then stabilized into darkness. "We're in," Chryssa whispered like a successful burglar, unable to help herself. Fortunately, the cave had no answer-- as Priam's had from the entrance, it merely echoed from the walls. That's good. No surprise second Abomasnow waiting inside. So where was she? She tested her footing and began to walk forward, holding her hands out blindly to feel for the walls.The ground felt soft and rustled beneath her feet, as if it had been lined with dry grasses. Is this... a bed? A nest, rather? Her toe bumped into something cold in the dark and Chryssa stopped, reaching down to feel it over. It felt like a block of solid ice. Treasure, perhaps? Growing more excited, Chryssa beckoned her Claydol closer. "A little light, please! Psychic Terrain."A ripple of color burst out with Auld as the center and rimmed the cavern with psychic energy, creating a faint aura of pink around the walls, floor, and nest itself. Oh my god, it's a body. Chryssa fell back as it also outlined a human shape curled up on the ground in front of her like an insect in amber, entirely encased in ice. "They're frozen," she murmured, heart racing as she picked herself up in obvious pain and crawled over to look more closely. It was one of the blondes. There was no blood, no obvious injuries. Her eyes were even closed, as if sleeping. "Preserved in ice. Was it storing them up for winter?" She looked around the nest, counting the similar shapes illuminated by the psychic ambiance. Are they all here? How many missing person posters did Priam have, again?She heard a roar from the entrance of the cave and spun around. Too soon-- far too soon-- the Abomasnow was coming back. priam conrad
