I was actually hoping another water or fire elemental would go first, so I knew generally how far to progress in my area, but since its come to this, I might as well go first. But first, a few questions:

1. Do I just have to get past the tunnel of geysers first? I tackle the glacier in a later post, right? Or do I attempt to pass both in one post?

2. ShiZhen has been taking chemistry as her focus, so she knows that water has a high heat capacity. She has heard of the 'Leidenfrost effect', where someone who dips their hand in water can stick their hand in molten lead for a short period of time without getting burned. While what she would be doing is not technically the Leidenfrost effect, it sort of operates under similar principles. She is going to cause herself to become wet all over. In addition, she will surround herself with Kracko, essentially a cloud-shield. The high humidity area around her, as well as the layer of water covering her body, should be enough to shield her from the hot geyser blasts. of course, she is going to attempt to go from stalagmite to stalagmite during lulls in the geyser blasts, but most geysers are not regular; the only reason yellowstone Park's Old Faithful us famous is because it is regular, and that's unusual. So it's likely that even if ShiZhen does attempt to time her movements, the geyser(s) may fire prematurely, and that's where her moisture/humidity shield will hopefully come into play. So my question is: will this work?

@Stern Algorithm sound plan and good thinking. It would likely work, but it will depend on any meddling outside presences.

I wasn't planning on adding any obstacles until after the glacier wall was passed, but I can get up a post to show Marshall commenting on efforts put forth thus far.

Sorry for the delay, but I won't be able to get a post up for a few days. I have another writing assignment I must do and limited time to do it in.

I thank you for your patience.

@Spriggs27@Zelosse The heroine has come to save the princess from her icy castle!

Lol. But still, i have posted, and Diana is doing her best to save Kris right now to boot.

Though admittedly, if the teachers don't get her pulled up soon, Diana is close to the cold really taking her down for the count too. She has willpower and drive, but that only can go so far when her focus with her powers is on Kris alone at the moment, not having thought of herself right now tbh. ^^;

As for Leanne, she is trying to think around the problem a bit. I hope it isn't a bad idea...

EDIT: Added a music track to my post for the cheesy effect. I love it though.

Hmm.

@Zelosse what's the thought process behind injuries in these trials? I assume teachers are supposed to step in to prevent death or dismemberment, but what about things like Kris's head trauma?

@Zelosse I...crap. :T

There went a lot of my post idea for Diana in the trash. Is late, on small tablet, will try to edit quick rn. Course I go brain dead the moment I finally get a post idea, lol.

Tell this to @Spriggs27 too, thouvh, since he mentioned Kris running into Diana in his post.

Edit: Stupid tablet autocorrected Spriggs' name, so I couldn't tag him when first posting this message. Dangit. DX

If Kris somehow managed to wake up seeing Diane. *Kris' face goes completely red*

Kris:"What did you do to me while I was out of it?" *Turns away from Diane* "Not like I needed help or anything H-hot head!"

Edited my post

@Saltwater Thief

Eh, she fell down, doubt Kris has a head injury or a severe one, probably a little more burned by the hot water and shaken up, but she'll be okay with a nap.

@Spriggs27 I'm still mulling over having Marshall check on her. Head injuries aren't something to screw around with, particularly when they result in unconsciousness. Won't remove her from the exam if I do have him go in though, maybe just take her aside, let her wake up, then ask how she is / if she wants to continue. But I'm still thinking on it.

@Saltwater Thief She just overused her element at the wrong time and messed up what she was trying to do, the hot water from geyser hit her face first and she didn't take a moment to really rest herself or get a real moment to sit down and take a moment to chill in the cold air. When she fell she just, she fell face down really not head first into the ground.

If you really want to do it do it.
