Title
[0;36mThe Telkec-tegaar - A Tributary Glacier[0m
Description
The glacier gets thinner the further up you climb it, and so does the air. Here you find a few corpses, scattered and broken where they fell, some are entirely whole and undamaged, perfectly preserved by nature's casket. There is nothing to pick clean the meat from the bones, and only the sun and blistering winds have any effect, turning corpse skin to a pitch black color. Two peaks high above you dominate the immediate vicinity, each looking an impossible climb and offering even less of a reward for doing so. Naked rock juts out from where the glacier kisses the mountain in a centuries long battle that the mountains are doomed to lose.

Title
[0;36mThe Telkec-tegaar - A Tributary Glacier[0m
Description
A smaller, yet still immense, river of rock and ice settles between the borders of two neighboring mountains, feeding the larger main glacier of The Telkec-tegaar. You see what might be the remains of an old rope and ladder system from a bygone time when some poor fool (or fools) may have attempted to map and explore the area. Large breaks in the ice spell certain doom for any who are unable to make the leaps across them. The deathly cries from yet unseen horrors echo from time to time, like the sound of animated ice, haunting the glacier.

Description
This appears to be one of the origins of the larger glacier below. Like the tributaries of a great river, this branch has humble origins. At this height nothing grows, nothing seems to exists, and the only evidence otherwise has long since vanished. Even the ice elementals seem to avoid these heights. A bleak emptiness blankets your senses and the overwhelming scope of the landscape serves only to prove how small and insignificant your life is. Here, you find no hope, no promise of the future, no evidence of the past, only the cruel nothingness of the bitter present.
