Chapter 26 The Gate Of Glaces

• The Glacier Citadel didn't sit upon the mountain; it was the mountain itself.
• A monolith of translucent, blue-veined ice, it rose out of the tundra like a jagged tooth. The walls were five hundred feet high, reinforced by the "Ice-Binding" sorcery of Queen Freya, making the surface as hard as diamond and twice as cold.
• Anna stood at the edge of the Frost-Lord’s valley, her boots crunching on ground that had been frozen since the first moon rose. Behind her, the Rebel Frost-Wolves and the remaining Shadow-Guard stood in a silent, lethal line.
