Velus the boy

"Well, let's wish for Velus to become human again!" Fred said. Astral agreed heartily, so Fred stretched out a hand, touched the glowing circle, and said "I wish for Velus, the dog next to me to become the human he used to be!"

For a few seconds nothing happened, then Velus yowled in pain. Astral crouched down next to him, but suddenly Velus was rearing up, paws becoming hands, fur disappearing, until a boy of about fifteen stood before them,.

There was a brief silence, when Velus realised he wasn't actually wearing anything and hurried to cover himself up. Astral gave him her jacket, and Fred gave him one of his shoes, for some reason. These gifts did not cover him sufficiantly, but there was no time to waste. The three went back to the marketplace to find another way out and get Velus some clothes.

On their way, Fred suddenly saw a hole in the roof of the stone passageway. It was slowly closing. "Shall we go through there?" he asked.

"But I need clothes!" Velus whimpered.

1. Go through the hole (and leave Velus half naked)
2. Go get Velus some clothes and hope that hole isn't closing too fast
3. Go get Velus some clothes and don't bother coming back
