Fred Tries to Interfere

"Trying to move this stalactite," you say.

"Not content with killing the Dragon, now you're dese... desecr... interfering with his corpse. It's not right." He stands up and walks towards you.

"Fred, we've no alternative. If we can't get out of here, eventually we'll starve to death - you as well."

"I don't care," he says petulantly. He makes a grab for the improvised lever. But before he can lay a hand on it, Astra grabs him. She lifts him off his feet, then tosses him across the cavern. He lands in a heap several yards away. He doesn't try to interfere again, but just lies there whimpering.

"Well done, Astra," you say.

"Who?" she asks. "My name is Boobs." Her intelligence may have returned, but apparently her long-term memory hasn't.

1. You decide that you had better tell her who she really is, whilst the two of you work at levering away the fallen stalactite.
2. You decide that you have enough problems without trying to sort out Astra's memory. "Sorry, Boobs," you say. "My mistake."
