River rainbow, all the way across the sky.

So intense!

What does it mean?!

I'm sorry, are you quoting the King of All Cosmos? Do you know how dangerous it is to invoke that sort of power?

[Gnauga]

No, he's quoting the Double Rainbow song.

I'm gonna have to say "definitely maybe." There are a lot of variables involved, not the least of which is whether or not this is a glitch like the Adamantine Spire. However, it occurs to me that dfliquids from the DFHack library (which lets you place magma and obsidian) should permit warming of the brook to override the biome.

Theoretically.

For science.

It should be really simple to change temperatures, but there's no tool that would do it yet. Yeah. A temperature tool. Results ranging from absolute zero to center of the sun
I know for a fact that temperature is only updated around heat sources and above-ground, so there's even a good Fun-potential.

Consider heat traps.

#..fort.#This is a heat trap. All hackdwarfship is of the highest quality. The center (H) contains an absolute-zero (or incredible heat) field with very high cost traffic designation. The side passages are normal. It menaces with spikes of Fun and tantrum spiral. On the design are images of goblins. The goblins are terrified.

... will it burn?

Not so much a 'song' as some random guy freaking out about a double rainbow, but yeah.

Use magma to thaw the entire thing.

See what happens.

Allow me to repeat: Magma. The magma should warm the brook up, if placed directly below it.

As for heat traps, that's an interesting idea. I'm not certain how one would implement it.

Been a while since this comic was worth linking to, but:

I've had this happen to me before when I embarked at the edge of a glacier.

[iceball3]

i guess this is a worldgen screw up because the river must had eroded the land while still remaing frozen middair.
