Atrium and Hall of the Vanquished

The party entered the ice fortress through a short hallway. As they walked down the hall it opened into a larger chamber. Slender ice pillars support the tall roof of the sweeping gallery. Thick blocks of translucent crystal set in the roof allowed some outside light to illuminate the area. Ornamental rock gardens lined both sides of a wide flagstone path running through the center of the chamber. A dozen alabaster statues, all depicting the same draconic figure, flanked the pillars on either side of the path. The atrium was 90 feet high and the gardens contained a small variety of Triaxian plant life, most of it currently dormant in winter's chill. 

While looking at the chambers arrangement Fanara began to feel different as again her skin pallor became almost transparent, her hair shock white and a wart or two appeared on her nose.  She had again become the Winter Witch that the party had seen before.

"Oh, No," Fanara moaned softly.

After their rest the party headed down the long crevasse passage.  It led for quite a long distance and then finally led to an opening on the wall of a vast cylinder in the center of the glacier.

The floor of this moulin seemed to be a palely reflective white stone and they could see several buildings and a large fortress in the distance, on top of the stone.  About 200 feet overhead they could see pale sunlight through a hole.  The fortress was the color of the glacier, ice blue and was 100 feet or so high.

Amadeo sent the owl on a scouting mission and he returned after a long interval and relayed what he had seen.
