"To the Frostguard who read these words, this is Serylda and Avarosa."

"If you've made it here, it means you defeated that terrifying being and thwarted its plot to devour the world. I'm truly proud of your victory."

"Though we couldn't witness the battle, it must have been a valiant struggle, and you must have paid a terrible price in sacrifice, just as Lissandra did when she said goodbye."

"The dead are gone, but the living endure. It was all worth it. If our names still carry any weight, then take them as a reward for your noble fight."

"But I'm sorry to tell you that reaching this place isn't the end. The rift ahead is the source of all the danger. We drew on all our strength and could barely seal it in ice. We don't know whether the seal will still be stable when you arrive, but since you managed to kill that terrifying one-eyed monster, you should be able to close this rift, right?"

"If you don't yet have a way to do that, our bodies should be further ahead. Perhaps you can draw on the Iceborn power that remains in them to strengthen this seal, as we did here."

"Here's how to draw on it..."

"The names of our companions and tribes..."

At this point in the letter, the Iceblood Lineage member choked up and stopped reading.

In silence, Karya and the others quickly turned around and looked toward the other side of the chamber. There, they soon found Avarosa and Serylda... or what remained of them.

The two bodies looked as if they were merely asleep, perfectly at peace, sealed inside the ice. They smiled as they gazed toward the inscription, their faces seeming to hold the hopes they had carried across a thousand years.
