The spell that Checkers has inadvertantly unleashed has not been properly
focused, due to the lack of skill of the caster. So it looks for a being
to target. Of those outside the room, Belboz - walking back from where
Astra is held and towards his own chambers - is nearest, but his magical
defences are such that the spell is not even aware of him. Next nearest is
Astra.
Fred and Checkers get a shock when a tall and startlingly voluptuous young woman, with flaming red hair and shoehorned into a perilously low- cut evening gown, materialises in front of them. So much for Checkers' recitation not invoking any enchantment, Fred thinks. There is a long moment of quiet while Fred and Checkers get over their surprise. Astra has no option but to remain silent, of course. Finally Fred finds his tongue and says: "Who are you?" Astra points at her mouth. "You're dumb?" Checkers asks. Astra nods.
