"I don't know," answered Astra. "But I do know someone who can." With
those words she straightened her deformed body, raised her furry hands to
the sky and began to sing. She started in muted tones but with each
completed stanza her tempo rose. The words were in her native language
and Fred had no idea what she was singing, in fact he had no idea what she
was doing at all.
"Uh, Astra," said Fred. Astra continued her song. "Ummmm, Astra?" said Fred a bit more assertively, but she still ignored him. "Princess Astra," tried Fred a third time but to no avail. "Astra!" shouted Fred who was by now too tired, too depressed, and too angry with Synizn to care about the feelings of a ditzzy princess who was going off the deep end. "SHUUUUUUT UUUUUUP!!!!!" Astra was so surprised by that that she immediately shut her snout. "I am too tired and too depressed; I am a freak and I am lost. I am pissed off with dragon's and dragon-friends, and with furry foxes who live in communes. And I don't, and I mean I REALLY don't, need some ditzzy dame to go off the deep end in the middle of this wasteland!" Fred's lower lip quivered as he finished. Astra stared at him. Then she got mad. "Look what you made me do!" she yelled at Fred. "I'm trying to do something and you go and messed it all up!" "Do?" shouted Fred. "You're singing to the bloomin sky! serenading the highest heavens! crooning to the great blue yonder!" "Exactly!" yipped Astra in triumph. "Huh?"
