Uberbob stated his newest master plan. "Well, everyone has a chisel. Tie the rope around everyone's waist, so they're all connected, and proceed with the plan. But now with more people than just Faw. Whoever's last will pull out the chisel and hand it to the above person and so on until it gets to Uberbob. Then he hammers it in and climbs up with everyone following."
It sounded plausible enough, though still pretty dangerous, but then that's what Save Stations are for. We all got on the rope and began climbing up. I was on the bottom, noteably NOT under Shuriken, so it was my job to pull out the chisels as we climbed. We made it up about 100 feet, free of any difficulties worth noting.
As always, however, something went wrong. A huge boulder fell from the slope and began rolling directly towards us, gathering snow on the way down and getting larger and larger. Halfway down it looked to be about 20 feet in diameter. Apparently someone didn't want us to reach Upper Placespot so easily.
Uberbob shot the Snowball of Death a defiant eye. I hoped he had another brilliant plan, because despite what teen movies will have you believe, dyin' ain't cool.
"Gay sorceress fox lady!" Uberbob shouted as the Snowball of Death approached. "Sling a fireball! NOW!" I already had a feeling that it wasn't going to work, until Uberbob added, "At the ICE! Sling it at the ice and make a cavern!"
I put my hand to the ice slope and shot a fireball spell into it. The thin layer of snow melted, but the ice below it did not. Before I could even call Uberbob an incopetant boob for forgetting that only the enchanted ice tools can damage the ice, we were struck by the Snowball of Death. We all plummetted several feet to our horrible, bloody deaths...

I warped back to Upper Placespot and slid down the slope once more, though this time crashing into Uberbob. "The answer is beef!" He shouted as I struggled to get off of him and back on my feet.
"I knew that you incompetant boob!" I yelled. I wasn't sure why, but this caused me to feel both fulfilled and highly paranoid.
