"Come on guys lets move, lest we freeze in here. We almost can't catch our breath anymore." With a brief respite with Kamina giving a group hug for Anthony and the others - who were unfortunately weak to the bitter coldness and ice - eventually we'd have to move towards the darkening depths of the ice cave, out of the maze thankfully. As the ice lessened and the cave's features took prominence, ambient light which bounced internally and provided a decently bright glow seemed to dim in corners and pits of ice. The path seemed to take an subtly upwards turn, where stone protruded and disrupted the careful flow of ice, which look as if cascaded and frozen mid-air. Perhaps ominously the further ahead we saw, the more purple glow seemed to vein and tint the ice, almost as if we were stepping into an alien arctic. It didn't help there were several branching paths ahead of us and around the other exits of the maze, visible through the clear chiseled walls. None of them seemed very friendly to head into, most of them harshly dim and devoid of light, aside from the purple glow on the walls.
Wait, flow... there's a pattern of flow in the ice, like a river. Why would would Kyreum go out of his way to make ice 'flow'? Wouldn't it look like simple blots? It only just occurred to me that this cave might've had a freshwater system, and we just crossed through the former underground lake. A maddened legendary Pokemon wouldn't be patient enough to form walls of ice if he could just dig it out of a lake... In fact, it's likely Kyreum would've tried to freeze the largest deposit of water around here. An upwards path here must lead to wherever he's hiding, but all the branches seemed identical with their flash-frozen rivers. "Hey, Josh, anyone?" I shouted out for the rest of the party, Reshiram somewhat interested as he raised an eyebrow at me. "This is silly, but can anyone... feel the largest amount of ice and the path we'd have to take? This entire cave might be an underground water system, and up ahead is a bunch of frozen rivers that might come from where Reshiram is residing. Well, assuming these rivers come from the largest lake..." I was kinda going out on a limb though, tilting my head and resigning slightly. I was luckily unaffected by the ice but the same couldn't be said for say Reshiram and Josh, and so we'd have to try something at least.
