Kaz’s form shifts and twists, becoming a massive desert colored gecko like lizard with hardened plates, covered in writhing black markings and glowing sunlight for its massive eyes, that blink once before his tongue flecks at one of its eyes. Kaz gecko will carry up anyone who doesn’t think they can make the climb, sticky limbs clinging to the sheer ice wall as it scurry a up to the top, ferrying those who DO NOT LIFT, BRO.

As Kai is one of those people who does not lift, he hitches a ride on Kaz and promptly thanks the druid for getting him up to safety.

Kaz gecko will lick it’s eyeball again and give a toothy smile, rubbing its massive head against Kai before scurrying back down to see if anyone else needs a ride up who isnt confident climbing.

As you reach the top, a 20-foot-wide path made from bricks of ice leads from the dock to a large fortress in the distance. It's so large, it's visible from when you are. The ice that makes up the island fans out under the water, creating shelves ranging from 20 to 50 feet beneath the surface. Atop these shelves, lodged amid jagged spires of submerged ice, are the wrecks of several ill-fated sea galleons and ancient frost giant longships.
"We must hurry. Searching the island as fast as we can in search of Lantomir and my orb is top priority. Then, and only then, should we brave Grimskalle."she says, pointing to the ice fortress in the distance. "Grimskalle was constructed for a frost giant queen named Vassavicken and is filled with the remnants of her reign, including her corpse. Auril has claimed the stronghold to serve her own worldly needs."
Kaz gecko licks their eye, then pants, long gecko tongue lolling out of it's mouth before reverting back to Kaz form, "Then let's start with the closest wreck, east or west?"

Sobek retrieves his climbing gear, and then looks north pensively. ’I’ll scout on a head a little...’ says Sobek, and then proceeds to focus inwardly for a moment. Suddenly his form wavers, for a moment collapsing inwards, and then growing, hair sprouting, and suddenly there is a very large Dire Wolf stood there in the snow. He lopes off northward, nose sniffing at the air.

Atop these shelves, lodged amid jagged spires of submerged ice, are the wrecks of several ill-fated sea galleons and ancient frost giant longships. The water is absolutely frigid. A shipwreck floats among one of the ice shelves.

From a distance, you can see a huge frost giant skeleton manning it's post like it was still alive. If you choose to proceed you will need to roll for initiative.
Lucas climbs up alongside Shrek, using his own climber's kit, and similarly anchors the top down so that others below have an easier time climbing.
Sobek uses his climber’s kit to climb up, once there supporting Lucas and Shrek to help the others climb up...

Kaz gecko deposits the priestess at the top (Choo choo!) before nodding and clambering back to the bottom, looking to Percy.

Vetis regards the frozen wasteland with a detached gaze.
Beautiful, no?
"West."
Oh, I see you're still ignoring me.

Lucas notes the path and hearing Vetis' claim for the west is further in agreement, "I say West as well."

Lucas offers to go first, being one of the lighter members with dexterous survival skills.
Init: 18
Lucas, realizing he'd need a way to cross, calls over to Sobek and Shrek, "Think you two can cut out a part of the cliff to act as a raft?"
"Shrek pound ice to make berg?" he asks Lucas, quizzically.
Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
"Yes."
