A Little Problem

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 14036

Shen Tso could lifted her undergarment and confirmed, much to her relief, that she was still an adult - though she could no longer be reasonably considered a "full grown woman". Whatever had happened, she was now much tinier than before. In fact, using her sword (which was now taller than she was) as a guide, she deduced that she now measured about three feet in height, or maybe a a bit less.

She contemplated this dilemma as she salvaged two sharp looking daggers from her armor. At her current size, she could easily use them as short swords. My sword sword will be almost useless to me now, she realized. Worse, so will my armor. There was no way she could fit into it, and the sword would be much too large to wield effectively. On the other hand, she recalled Belboz's words that the silver armor offered proof against the cursed blood of the dragon.

Shen Tso fixed her undergarment up as a sort of knee-length dress, tied a strip of cloth to each foot to form a makeshift pair of shoes, and decided:

  1. She couldn't burden herself with the now gigantic armor and sword - she'd have to leave them behind.
  2. She could afford to abandon the silver armor - she'd have to tote it and sword along.
  3. The dragon was much more clever than she'd given it credit for.
