The sound of clattering teeth resounded in a space devoid of light, combined with the crackling of a voracious fire.
The cave was chilly, with only a few sparks of flame maintaining the atmosphere above freezing temperature. Even so, such was not enough to melt the ice that coated Jenny's arm before she lost control of it forever.
So, to not become an amputee, Jenny employed the assistance of Fire Magic. She summoned flames, encompassing the entirety of the cave in blinding light and burning fire.
However, despite the intense heat that the cave now radiated, Jenny still could not melt the ice on her arm. It was as if the ice was now a part of her existence as if only death would do them apart.
Jenny clenched her teeth, pained by her own decision. Not only were the bones in that arm broken, but the ice was also causing ice burn. If she let it continue, she might receive organ damage through hypothermia.
