An Unpleasant Decision

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 93716

"No. I've decided that you shall be my queen," says Alex/Fred, and grins. The effect of that grin on an innocent child's face makes Astra somewhat nauseous. "It is exhausting keeping this up, make your way back to the castle or else," and then Alex collapses, dead asleep.

Astra gathers Alex up in her arms and takes her to Mira, who thanks her and puts her to bed. She then makes an excuse about an emergency and leaves Mira a gold coin (she tries to give it back, but Astra won't have it). Astra then starts heading back to Caemlyn. She has no desire or intention of marrying Fred, but how can she possibly get out of this?

About an hour later, a man with a cart packed with various and sundry items is going by her on the road. Upon seeing her, he does a double take. "Astra?! Princess Astra of Aquilaria?" he says, dropping to one knee.

It takes Astra a moment, but she recognizes him as...

  1. a friend of hers, a traveling merchant, what is he doing in Allaria?
  2. a wizard from Court. He must be here as a spy!
  3. Lord Edward Heimar, a minor noble from Allaria she had previously befriended on a state visit.
  4. King Emry. What is going on here?
