Description
The hot springs here are a source of mystery to me. Where does the heat come from?
Looking at how close the pools are to Fire Plume Ridge, I really wonder if the volcano might have something to do with it. I created a thermometer to take readings of the temperatures at the volcano, and I'd like to find the hottest part. It gives the measurements in degrees Kraklenheit!
Here, take it, and take readings of the temperatures at the ridge whenever you see a hot spot!
In progress
I'd go there myself, but... I'm a little scared of the fire elementals there!
Completion
Yes, I definitely see the correlation here between the temperature of the volcano and the hot springs. I'll have to double-check my equations for accuracy, but it seems like the distance and the rate that the heat is transferred... Hmm...
