You smell treasure. The door to the little room is partly opening, revealing glinting treasure inside. Here, you'll find:
1,350 gp, 4,400 sp, and 7,800 cp. Four gold rings sized for giants (150 gp each), a giant-sized shield made of white dragon scales (impressive but worthless), a 2-foot-tall, 50-pound, chipped statuette of Thrym made of ice, and an alchemy jug.
G4 - Frost covers a bloated trestle table that stands amid rotting barrels and casks in the middle of what used to be a kitchen. Storage racks along the walls have collapsed into piles of rotted timber along with the jugs, tankards, and drinking horns that once rested on them. A roasting spit lined with icicles is mounted above a ten-foot-diameter iron brazier coated with rime and situated near the back wall.
The barrels and casks are empty and fall apart easily. The jugs, tankards, and drinking horns are all cracked or otherwise damaged. Nothing of value remains here.
Shrek's stomach audibly rumbles out loud when the group sees the empty and rotted out kitchen area. As such, he'll take a short breather, lean his weapon against the wall, doff his pack, and grab out his bundle of rations, sharing them with everyone in the group for a quick snack. "Friends need energy. Here, this help!"
Once that short snack time is complete, he'll stuff everything back into his pack, weapon up, and follow quickly behind Sobek again at they enter G6.
The staircase descends into a vaulted chamber. A nine-foot-high railing of sculpted ice hugs the staircase as it descends to the chamber floor, which, like the stairs, is smooth and gleaming. The floor in this area is as smooth as an ice rink. When a creature moves on the floor for the first time on a turn, it must succeed on a DC 10 Dexterity (Acrobatics) check or fall prone.
"I SEE YOU'RE STILL ALIVE. WELCOME TO MY TEST CHAMBER. PASS, AND THE BOOK SHALL BE YOURS. FAIL, AND YOUR SOULS SHALL BE MINE."Sinister laughter ends the sentence. Pick one of the lanes that lead to G15. There are four.

Vetis manages to keep her balance, eyes narrowed with focus as she makes her way across the ice and trying to think past the quiet winter wind that has begun howling in the back of her mind since they entered the fortress.
G11 - The passageway leads to an anvil-shaped room with a door set into the far wall. Flanking the door are bas-reliefs of two female frost giants holding greataxes. Runes are carved into the door’s surface.
Lucas focuses on keeping up his rate of fire and concentrating on keeping the Wolf on the attack.

Shrek yells out "Here be your death wish!" as he goes in for the final (?) blow-
Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?
Ertgard falls, saying, "Death. At lasssttt...." and he dies.
Where to?
Sobek-wold sniffs around the small room to the east for anything interesting.
Perception: 23
"Strange fellow..." Shrek mumbles as he wipes his halberd clean of the expired elder giant's blood. He'll then follow quickly behind Sobek.

G10 - THE ICE RINK

Lucas tries to move across the ice carefully, moving to the center of the room to better view all the other rooms.

In ice and blood, our folk are born.
To our great queen, we raise our horn.
We’ll fight and plunder in the morn.
To Vassavicken, we are sworn.

Shrek's acrobatics check: 6
Shrek quickly slips and falls onto his arse, alonside Lucas. Turning bright red, he whispers "Shrek's butt hurts!"
Shrek suffers 1 point of butt damage.
After taking a moment to collect his pride splattered all over the ice, he manages to pick himself up and follow Sobek to G11.
Barely able to comprehend the runes carved into the door, he picks out a few words here and there which he recognized. One of them being 'horn'.
Turning to Kazimir, Shrek meekly asks "Master Kaz use horn?"
OOC: Use the Horn of Blasting we found back on post #2219?
