Concerning Boy Scouts

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 22515

Annafrid:

Most of us have spent enough time on versions of Earth where that institution exists that we could answer Aaron's question. As it happens, it's my co-wife who is quickest to reply. "It's an organisation they have in a far away place, for providing boys with useful training in the sort of skills that a ranger would need, though most don't go on to become rangers," Astra 9 says. She has clearly tried to put her answer in terms that the people of this culture could understand, and as far as my own knowledge goes it seems quite a good approximation to the truth.

I've been watching the New Amazons observing each other with wondering glances. Most of them seem noticeably taller this morning. Fortunately their clothing and armour seems to have grown to match. I notice Aaron looking at his sister. Last night she had been some three inches shorter than he; now if anything she is the taller of the two. The New Amazons seem stronger as well, and also better looking. We Champions are in no doubt that Karen's chaos energy from Game 3 is the cause. Chaotic changes normally turn out badly, but for once we've been lucky and had one work in our favour. Fortunately none of the New Amazons seem to think that we might somehow be responsible for what's happened. At any rate, we don't get asked any questions about it - questions that it might have been impossible for us to answer truthfully. And none of us much enjoys having to lie.

  1. Now it seems to be time for us to have a meeting with Aaron, Illura and Rebecca to discuss our future plans.
