In spite of your efforts of using magic to tamper with the cage to set your cousin free, you quickly learn that it is wasted energy. Each spell that you cast at it rebounds, bouncing off the cage and landing somewhere in the snow or disappearing forever into the air. It is clear that advanced magic has been casted to protect the cage. Spell-casting will do nothing to make it open any time soon.

Observing the metal box is worth your time. It is the only way you can open the cage and getting Ryan out of it. The spell you casted reveals nothing. It, like the others, rebounds, though there were no numbers to be revealed anyway. So how do you open the cage? That is all part of the challenge, after all.

As you frantically try to free your cousin of his chilly prison, he tries to get your attention by muttering your name. Even though his blue-ish lips move, no sound leaves his mouth. He is too cold to speak, his teeth chattering. He tries to move his arm toward the bars, but the freezing temperature has made him stiff to the bone. What is he trying to do? And why?

If you look closely, his hand is clinging onto something off-white in colour. Could that be what you are looking for? Perhaps you should reach for it.
