True or False?

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 38823

Just as Fred had finished dealing with the skeletons, he saw the figure of the naked red-haired woman approaching him along the passage. Fred readied the sword that he had just acquired. "You needn't think to trap me with the same trick a second time, vile wyrm," he said. "Get any closer, and we'll see whether this sword will have any effect on the illusion that you are projecting."

"I don't know what you're talking about, Sir Knight. You were just about to free me, when it suddenly became dark. Then I found myself, free of my chains, in a new place. I could hear your voice in the distance, though, shouting something about the power of Christ, and I made my way towards the sound."

Fred realised that she could be telling the truth. The Dragon could have transported her away and then have transported itself to where she had been, under cover of the temporary darkness. On the other hand, the story could be a lie. He could think of no way of telling.

"So who are you," he asked, "and how do you come to be in these caves? All you told me before the light went out was that you came from Aqualaria and that the Dragon had toyed with you."

"I am Princess Astra. As to why I am in these caves:

  1. "I came here to slay the Dragon. But he is far more powerful than I had anticipated, and he soon captured me."
  2. "I was abducted by the Dragon and brought here."
  3. "That's none of your business."
  4. "...Look out! The skeletons are starting to reassemble themselves."
