Ah, you have asked a question that has perplexed many a young scholar. The reason that ice floats, despite its ties with cold and darkness is that ice is the child of cold and water. It is the result of what happens when cold forces its way upon one of Magasta's many Xth-grand-daughters. The resulting spiritual child--ice, is not acceptible to Magasta nor to his underlings, since it is spawn of a bastard mating. Thus, water holds it up and will not permit ice to permeate Magasta's realm.
Of course, there could also be the possibility that the Godlearners might not have been 100% perfectly right when they invented the runes.
