A Trap Avoided

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 10637

As she was about to invoke the powers of the ball, a thought occurred to Annafrid. Rather than teleporting directly to its lair, she crafted a detection spell and examined the crystal ball with it.

Of course, she realized. Her new knowledge of the magic arts had given her the realization that the lair might be protected - and sure enough, the detection spell showed her that if she had gone through the ball's portal, it would have alerted the dragon's master to her presence. And for all her power, she wasn't quite ready for that particular showdown just yet.

"Very well," she said aloud, "I'll do this the old-fashioned way." She could tell the dragon lay at the center of the caves, and the safest way to approach it and tame it would be to go on on foot. But she had one advantage - she could divine her way through this maze using a directional spell.

Again, Annafrid magically altered her garments, exchanging the magnificent (but impractical) gold silk gown for an blouse and trousers of similar material. With a smile, she cast her spell of navigation and left Belboz's study through:

  1. The North Door
  2. The South Door
  3. The East Door
  4. The West Door
  5. A hidden door behind one of the bookcases
