More Statues

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 34691

They investigated a little way inland from the shore, in the hope of finding more of the statues. They soon discovered several more, some which were of a head alone and some which represented both head and torso. One was different from all the rest. Firstly it showed the body as far down as its knees. Secondly it was clearly female and - judging by the exaggerated breasts, the clearly pregnant belly and the wide hips- was intended to be a fertility idol.

"These statues show that this region was once capable of supporting human life, even though there seem to be no humans - or even animals or birds - here now," Fred observed.

"Yes, I wish I knew why living creatures other than insects had abandoned it," Astra said, casually leaning against the female statue. Suddenly she leapt upright, stifling an oath.

  1. An ant that had been crawling across the statue had bitten her.
  2. Her weight had caused the statue to collapse into a heap of rubble.
  3. It seemed that the statue had been imbued with a powerful magic that still persisted after all this time. Her body was changing.
