Astra's Biography

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 30026

"Sorry," Astra said. "You'd better not bring the book any closer. I think I'm allergic to it. What's the title?"

"Princess Astra: A Life Written Down."

"But that's impossible! Nobody's written my life story. I'm only twenty- one, after all. Besides, that book looks as if it's absolutely ancient. Anyway, what does it say about me?"

"Well, I only had time to skim the first few pages, up to the point where, and I quote:

  1. "'Astra had been freed from her chains by a well-meaning but ineffectual knight called Lord Frederigi D'Honaire.' They even spelt my name wrong!"
  2. "'The broadsword that Astra had chosen from the drawer at first seemed like a good weapon, but it soon became apparent that it came with a curse.'"
  3. "'"Sorry," Astra said. "You'd better not bring the book any closer. What's the title?"'"
