It was true. No spell was ever permanent in the full sense of the word; something had to keep it either 'fresh' by preventing the weaves from dissipating fully. At Eren's next query, the pair of Ice Elemenats paused for a moment again before responding as briefly as they could without going too much into the details. That was something the Golden One taught them: to be wise was to be concise.
"We are permitted to do as wel please so long as it does not go against our Master's wishes",they said together, "but we remind you ... Erenthril", they went on with a tad of hesitation due to the lack of formality, "that the Golden One requests that you complete your first task before he returns. We shall lead you to the location of this task then?"
By this time, the twin elementals' shells were finally complete. Each one forged a demeanor similar to Erenthril's -- elven in shape and size. They allowed themselves more liberty to 'design' their garbs, however. The first wore armour similar to chainmail except it was made by glass-like ice complete with leggings, armour, and a cap formed from a continuous flow of water essence. Its counterpart chose some less pretentious things and instead produced a seemingly soft material akin to cloth by manipulating a fine stream of water around him: robes, perhaps, complete with boots and gloves.
"This way Arch ... we mean, Erenthril ...", they continued leading the Archmage away from the passage until they reached a separate door. Everything was still forged from ice, but Eren would find himself even more amazed by the detail that Heronythys put into his Everwinter Castle. Overhead were sculpted chandelliers that glowed as light from the outside was trapped within its diamond-like interior. The hallway itself housed several ice-made suits of armour, even paintings, and other works of art -- all made from Ice.
The icy double doors before Erenthril was massive, at least fifteen feet in height and a full seven feet in length. It came complete with surface that looked like carved wood, two door handles, even a keyhole. "Our Master wishes you the best of luck to complete your task", the icy twins nodded before turning to leave.
