Wouldn't the plan be in vain if someone just... melt the ice? I mean, the test participants are all high level mages. We have water/ice spell user, so a fire one is not that out of the ordinary
@celestialogian Part of me is expecting her to just catch every remaining stille and then hand one out to every team. Or at least tell them how to do it.
I know she's not the type to help people without at least a little personal gain, but on the other hand she doesn't care for certifications and does care that the amount of mages and magic is decreasing.
Frieren must be trying to gather every stile on a one water source at the same time also the examiners so they can capture one as well.. the more the merrier hahahahahaha
@knightdtd - actually, monocle dwarf explained it: after this outburst of mana/magic, no Stille will approach the lake now, even if the mages melt the ice. Stille be wary, remember?
