A most cruel response......

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 12526

Lireth (cont.)

Andrea 2 give her assent.

Treatment administered by demifox and by Probe (after the lycanthropes get well away!)

Even distilled wolfsbane is extremely malodorous to Sigin and his brother!

Soon, she is again walking and even laughing along with the newly restored Evis 7 (who'd magically regenerated her burned away flesh after enough time passed).

Now, when Andrea 2 chose this treatment she knew very well there would be consequences.....

The loss of status....

The disapproval from her piers.....

The mop of hair....the loss of height.....the tail.......

Yes, she was healed and was whole. She was also now a demifox!

And as such she was now unwelcome in polite high society......

Sigh....

Anyway, we had arrived via dragonback (heavily cloaked by magical spell to not cause panic). The dragons looked positively exhausted from the combined effort of flying to the capital AND staying invisible so long......

I felt the subdued hostility of the humans as we came in to the throne room. Nonhumans tended to be unwelcome in the human nations of most of the worlds that the various Freds had come from with Fred 8's world being more bigoted than most....but at least they weren't attacking. At least they'd let our group of combined humans, obviously non-human (Probe, Evis 7, and the dragons are mistaken for human) in to give the news to the others.

But for the love of God, at least you can expect for a father's love to overcome such stupidity!!

But, after the shocked master of Croix Keep finally, after Andrea 2 proved her identity by revealing things that only she (uh....and Andrea) would know......

"I have no daughter," he finally says sharply as he turns and leaves.

Now, honestly, I did see tears in his eyes as he rushed out, and that leads me to believe that even then and their he WANTED to accept her even as she was now. BUT the problem is, according to Fred 8 when I spoke to him later, that once a father disowns his daughter....in front of the King.... It's permanent. Period.

Lovely customs this freaking country has on this world.......

The King even called for the death of Andrea 2....and only the shouted protests of Fred 8 AND this worlds version of Duke Zular (!) halted that!

The King was livid, but had to let over or else face of causing a harmful breach between the two (both had quiet an unofficial following).

Instead, the King finally just allowed us the "favor" of having a day of getting out of Allaria....or be hunted down and killed. Sheeze!

  1. As we stormed out, angry as sin, Duke Zular called us over to the side....looking a bit confused about something.
