Your legs are very tired. You worry about your balance. Tireless shouts in Westron: Where art the Valar? Tireless looks down at his feet. Zillak is shivering a bit.

In the time of need of your charges, you abandon them!" Lightning crackles in the sky.

Tireless glares towards the western sky as clouds gather, the lightning intensifying. A faint glow appears in the east. Tireless looks down at his feet. Zillak looks down at his feet. You feel sleepy and start to see wisps and visions in the snowy mist. Tireless shouts in Westron: Curse you Manwe, you cowardly worm! Curse you Mandos, hiding in your halls! Curse you Ulmo and Aule, Orome and Irmo! Curse you Tulkas, for the blood of my brethren needlessly spilt! ROV|HP:201 EP:190> l Before you is a solid wall of snow and ice on three sides. You cannot pass any further. The snow looks loosely packed, as if this were a recent fall. The land about you is covered in a blanket of snow and patches of ice. You are atop the icecap of Zirak-zigil and it is very cold indeed. In fact, you imagine that there is a risk of dying of exposure if one were foolish enough to wait here. The sky is dark blue and a yellow glow comes from the east. The sky is dark blue, and nearly clear. The only obvious exit is west.
