Lord Fred Creates A New Life On This Here Mysterious Island

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 1927

Lord Fred munches on some sodden supplies and then sets out to creating a new life on the island.

His sword and pack was gone and that did disturb him but he had to create shelter. Using a sharpened stone (his trick knife long gone), he created a Japenese style wooden sword. Swung correctly, it could snap bone. Lord Fred pulled down about a dozen trees, used mud and stone and fastened a halfway decent cabin. It wasn't the greatest thing ever, but the weather on this tropical island wasn't too cold.

Exploration revealed that the island was about twenty miles long and shaped exactly like a capital L. At the far point on the lower branch was a rocky cove perfect for catching fish in. Things went up and up as one got further up the island. The top of the L was a five hundred foot tall cliff.

Weeks passed. Lord Fred discovered a system of tunnels underath the island, but the passageways soon dipped down and were blocked by water. This worried Lord Fred more. If creatures did take his pack and sword, they most likely came from here.

Wildlife on the island consisted of mainly birds and monkeys. There were a pack of lions, mysteriously enough, but they kept to themselves and ate birds and monkeys.

One day it came to Fred to name the island. He wasn't sure why but the name Astra came up. So he fashioned a flag and planted it on the beach. In a voice that dolphins heard hundreds of yards out he declared, "I CLAIM THIS ISLAND, 'ASTRA', FOR THE GREAT KINGDOM!"

Then he went off to play catch. One of the monkeys, a creature he named 'Horace' liked to toss acorns to him. And when Lord Fred returned them, they were caught and tossed back. Quite remarkable.

  1. Lord Fred doesn't find Horace.
  2. Lord Fred is suprised when the island begans to move. The entire island!
  3. A lifeboat full of castaways from a tourist vessel washes up on the island.
