Normal As It Gets Around Here

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 2255

Fred took stock. A talking dog and a naked princess with unreliable magic. And a dragon still to slay.
What a morass.
There is much discussion. And a pee break.
Exotica expresses her desire to restore Velus to normal. He declined, ever so politely, mentioning that the chaotic magic he just witnessed made him desire to stay as a dog until 'the dragon's influence on the magical realm was over'. Of course, what he meant was that Exotica was scary incompetent but nobody would say that. Not to a lady or a princess.
Exotica manages to conjure up a pair of boots so she wouldn't tear her feet on the rock. But anything else was currently out of her league. A pair of shorts turned into a floating blue pebble that swore like a sailor. Fred convinced her not to try any more magic for a while.
So the group continued on, determined to kill a dragon. Followed by a cursing blue pebble, currently muffled in Fred's front pocket.
They soon came to a small lake. It was a hundred feet square. The sides were sheer, wet wall, unclimable. There was a ferry of sorts. A circluar stone platform, with wooden railings that left a two foot gap on each side. The railings were remarkably well polished and smooth for being in such a damp enviorment.
The ferry moved on it's own, slowly going back and forth across the water.
Fred had a feeling of unease.

  1. He went across first on his own to test it.
  2. Velus went across as a test.
  3. Exotica insisted on going across first.
  4. Fred had the cursing blue pebble go across first.
  5. Same as number 4 but this time a jet of hellfire destroys the pebble.
  6. The platform speaks and demands a token of tribute before it would carry them across in any order they wished.
