The Library Painting has been successfully restored. We moved it in a truck to Burlington and hid it in the forest area near the Bed and Breakfast. It's a magic truck, so it's not going to work really well. We had to tow it with one of the other trucks. We don't know how to get it to the embassy so if anyone has any ideas, please share. We are worried that the ice torc wearers (I'm going to just refer to them as they ITW from now on) might find it and damage/take the painting. With the Clem's in Burlington no longer being an option, this is rather precarious.

Bloody Oath! Those fucking ITW fucks... Warmed me heart to put one of those fucks in a rear-naked choke while me friend Jack pummeled him.
You blokes shoulda seen Freddy, slicing and dicing, like a proper commando! Saved our arses, and The Painting, Fair-fucking-dinkum!
Anyway, I hope somebody drops a nuke on that ice tower, or whatever the source of these things is, soon.
If you blokes need a nuke, I can get you a nuke.

Well, actually… If you can get a magical nuke……… I may know someone stu- er, I mean brave enough to go and blow up the tower. But it would need to be one of those really simple nukes that a 10-year-old with no demolitions experience can use. You know, like the ones you find in America. Except magic. No techy nukes.

You'd have to roll it up again to fit the painting down the bomb shelter shaft. You can shadow walk from there if you can survive the arctic. But you might end up on the wrong continent in Beastkin. Even then you'd still have to reframe the painting. Which risks it needing to be restored again.
Easier to just take out the Ice Tower, since it seems like that needs to happen anyway. I don't know about nukes, but there are some dwarves that live near the tower. I think we could convince them to sap the tower if we made peace with them first. There is no profit in genocide, bargain man.

Yeah… Making peace with them would be difficult, though I would obviously prefer to do that. We could have originally shadow walked the painting over to Beastkin but there's no telling where we would have ended up, so we took it to Burlington instead.
I am trying to think of a way of taking down the ice tower. Do you have any ideas since you've been there?

The tower card seems appropriate. Napalm would probably do the trick. Undermining it could make it collapse. The magic "nuke" (if that's even a thing) would be overkill.
Defending the outside of the ice tower previously was just a bunch (maybe 2 dozen?) of small ice elementals. They are pretty dumb, so we were able to pick them all off from a distance without them being able to defend themselves. They do reform after a short while though. Also this time you will probably have to deal with ITWs. A flying car seems like a good idea if you're going to try and make it go boom.

Do you still have the tower trump card? Or did you give it to someone else?

I wonder if someone strong enough would be able to carry the painting through a location trump card they’d activated?

Unfortunately with just three of us this was not possible, and there was no Alex Kinley to help in that situation. Perhaps when we next see him we can attempt this. I believe only Doc is currently capable of holding a trump open for a prolonged period of time too, so we couldn't take our time and do it slowly either.
