Frostvin replied, “and why should I trust you? You seem to hate magic as much as you dislike the Gods. who’s to say you won’t stab us all in the back?”
“Yes. I followed the sun here. No, he nagged me. Like he always does. The only difference is that I decided to listen this time.”
“My emotion was simply an act. I was performing an experiment trying to see how easily magic users are agitated by the thought of change. And I would never harm you. You’re all much more valuable alive.”

“Glad to hear you’re listening big guy!”
Edward said, seemingly to no one in particular.
Alpha jumped and ran to Edward.
Frosting formed a large, spiky ball of ice in his hand, which dropped from an icy chain. “I am not an experiment. Not am I to be experimented on. Doing so will result in death for you.”

Oliver cupped his hand to his ear for a moment, “…sure,” he said putting it down
The spikes ball falls into pieces, and Frostvin relaxes. “Oliver has a point. Let’s cool off.”
The frost mage blasts his head with ice, encasing it completely.

Edward walked to the ice mage on four mechanical legs. His regular legs were crossed like he was sitting down. He then tapped the ice block with one of two remaining appendages.
“Interesting. Do you do this often?”
“Mmmmf mf mmm mmmmmf”
Edward pulls out his recording device again.
“Data Log 305 dash 1. One of the magical beings has encased its entire head in ice. I have yet to conclude whether this is behaving normal for the species or just the individual.”
