The man is at the top of a wave, far above me. I considered for a few moments trying to use my super powers to fly up to him and melt him out, but then realized that chances are he was dead of hypothermia within minutes of being frozen. Like most surfers, he wasn't exactly bundled up. But he might have a popsickle for me... well, if I wanted popsickles it would be easier just to find my way somehow to upper placespot and steal them from shops.
I looked down. I was unable to find Scholar Sam's magic academy under there. It should be pretty visible from the outside, given as the water is just five feet deep and the academy is a bit over ten feet tall, so I used my deduction powers to say that it must be a bit farther off.
I realized that it must be some spell that was making the ice freeze like this, because it couldn't happen naturally. Then I immediatly forgot and tought for a while about how funny it was that that one wave could freeze like that while moving.
I tried to splorch around but the ice was a bit too solid for it. After one particularly loud attempt by me to jump into the ice, Faw began to stir.
