This whole unfreezing them thing is not a problem because, luckily, you know of an old folk tale, a story passed down generation to generation, that tells you exactly how to do this: you're going to stop the world which will melt the ice. With practiced mental effort, you bring the planet to a screeching halt, and, exactly as the story promised, the ice starts melting. Almost immediately you can see it's getting better, all the time. Soon the people are free and, while you do end up missing the Red, Her Rings show you were going to, you do feel after that good deed your future is wide open. Also, if you get these references this is a reminder to schedule your next preventive colonoscopy.
