A Very Difficult Situation

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 114076

There was, however, a complication, which he quickly realized.

The cow was pregnant.

Romestám shuddered. All right, don't need to think about it too much. It would be unthinkable to kill the developing calf within the mother but it would also be unthinkable to leave the once-human like this.

After determining that the other two cows were ordinary, from-birth animals, he teleported himself and the pregnant cow out of there, back to his own tower. Though he doubted it would be effective, he tried explaining the situation to her.

Freda, for her part, was terribly confused. She didn't know where she was or how she'd gotten there, and this man was talking to her, but she couldn't catch any of what he was saying. Vycynth had sometimes talked to her, but she'd completely lost her knack for human speech. She only understood very simple words, and only when they were spoken very slowly.

She only stared at him, straining, and he wasn't sure whether that was a glimmer of intelligence in her eyes. He had failed, either way. He huffed in frustration, and departed to pore over his books, seeking the best solution.

Eventually he decided...

  1. to try a spell to increase the cow's intelligence and give her the ability to speak, so she could weigh in on what would happen to her.
  2. to turn both the cow and the calf into people, resulting in a pregnant human woman.
  3. to leave the cow as a cow for the remaining eight or so months of pregnancy, and attempt to change her back after she'd given birth.
