The Never Ending Quest - Episode 40098

"I - I - I..." Velus seemed to be dumbstruck - not to mention blushing furiously. His face looks like an apple, Astrid thought.

"Is that it?" the little gold man said. "Do you challenge me for my fair Astra's hand?"

"No, of course he doesn't," Astrid said, stepping between the two. She still wasn't sure what was going on, or whether to trust one or the other (or both - or neither!) of them, but the last thing any of them needed right now was for the two of them to fight over the wrong woman! "Look, Velus is a very nice young man that I met wandering in the caves here, and I realize it's very difficult for him to keep his eyes off of me - I mean, I'm a naked princess, right? And Velus is only, what, 18? 19? But he's all right really. And I'm very sorry, I should know you, but - I just can't place you."

The two of them regarded her for a moment, and then:

  1. The little man said, "Forgive me, Astrid my darling, I should never have doubted you."
  2. The little man growled, "He's nothing but trouble!" as he drew his sword and advanced on Velus.
  3. "Fine!" the little man huffed, "If my love means so little to you that you don't know me, I shall take my leave!"
  4. "I do love you, Princess!" Velus exclaimed. "You're the most beautiful woman I've ever met!"
  5. "Well well well," the mocking voice of Belboz echoed throughout the chamber, "All the mice are gathered in one place, I see!"
  6. Just then, another barrage of rocks erupted from the doorway.
