>WHY ARE WAVES SO COMMON IN THIS GAME WITH EVERYTHING HAVING TO DO WITH THE OCEAN AND THE MUSIC ACROSS THE LAKE AND STUFF
The Darkness is being equated to a liquid, hence a Dark Fountain.
Dess is lost in the Depths, the deepest parts of the Darkness, where the Dark Fountains pull from into the Light World.
Kris and Carol want to start the Roaring because it's the only time a passage to the Depths will be possible.
But Kris needs to be stronger so that the Roaring can be stopped once Dess has been saved.
Ice Magic can also freeze things, if you can get colder than cold... you can even freeze the Dark.
