Ok, Xeth and co, you are making your way up an icy peak. They are not mountain sized, but high enough in thia damn weather. You need gear to get up some of the sheerer surfaces, and not everyone finds it as easy going as you, Xeth- Vera, in particular, feels that she is too old for this kind of thing.
Vera... you are beginning to feel that the features of this glacier are somehow wrong. Some of the peaks and bumps out there in particular feel against the natural balance to you. Maybe a good look from atop this peak will help.

Your Cultist will tell you that the Thrael was only revealed once the arguments began. He only knows of it frim rumour, though he knows that the 'loyalist' faction was totally destroyed very quickly, and certainly your intuition says that there is something to look out for here, Marcus.
He will, however, tell you the way to the Ziggurat.
Very noble, and very well. We'll call it an even 25 people needed to guard them, and take them back to the ship.
One thing remains, Marcus- the Ziggurat. The temple must be stormed and the leadership destroyed. You know the way but hostilities could start at any moment- what is the approach plan?

Xeth was thinking about digging earlier, but the galacier is just too damn big. Even if you were right on top of something it could take hours to get through this ice to it, and that's the best case scenario.
Ok, atop the peak, now you look at the glacier as a whole, some of the curves and hills look less like hills and more like... well... lumps.
