I’m not particularly happy with how this turned out; I don’t have a better idea for what to do there, though.

 

After that, I wandered around the cave and Pinetown taking pictures:

Pat was building a floating island; here are pictures of that.

I think this is the old cottage inside the ice forest?  I'm not 100% sure, though...
