Lord Fred begins chanting the incantation on the scroll. Partway through,
he realizes that the last word was smudged. Fred knew that if he stopped,
or if he merely mumbled what he thought the last word was, the spell would
go terribly wrong. Of course, even making a random guess could prove
disasterous, but it held better odds.
Lord Fred finishes the scroll by shouting out his random guess, "qacfhnmk!" Just at that moment, a cold wind swept through the cave. Fred felt instantly chilled to the bone. He turned to Belboz to see if he might know what went wrong and was surprised to see that a layer of frost had collected upon the Necromancer's body. He seemed to be struggling to say something, but no sound was coming out. Lord Fred noticed that he too was now surrounded by a layer of frost. He also was aware of an inability to move any part of his body. A moment later, Lord Fred blacked out. Lord Fred and Belboz are both now encased within frozen blocks of ice. When they will be freed from the dilemma, only time will tell...
