After binding Astra's hands with a stripe of cloth Fred and Exotica sat
down to discuss what to do next. Velus who could not join in the debate
instead busied himself with licking himself.
A moan alerted them that Astra was waking up. Fred hurried over to her and bathed her forehead with a damp rag. "I'm sorry for treating you in this way your Highness. You must believe me when I say we are not the dragons minions." Astra looked dimly at Fred, then at Velus still licking himself, then Exotica who stood frowning at her.
"Oh, don't worry, I remember now" she said, "I'm afraid the dragon have
been toying with us. He took me from my imprisonment and put some kind of
spell on me to make me forget what had happened to me these last days. "But why?" Exotica exclaimed, "If he's got such power why doesn't he just capture us?" Astra shrugged "I suppose it amuses him seeing us struggle through his illusions" At that moment thunderous laughter rolled overhead. The forest disappeared and the party found themselves standing in a great cavern. Also the sword and clothes which Exotica had taken from Astra disappeared, leaving the Allarian princess naked again. "Oh blast!" said Exotica.
