Reconciled

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 40360

"No, I didn't plan it, honestly," Shen Tso said, sounding upset. "I appreciate that it might look like that to you, but consider this: what could I hope to gain by fusing our bodies like this when you are the one who controls the legs? I can now only go where you are willing to take me."

"You're right, of course," Astra said. "I apologise for accusing you. It's just that it has come as a bit of a shock. Tell me, do we still need to eat and drink - or even to breathe for that matter?"

"It may seem strange, but I haven't thought about it. It hasn't been long enough for me to know whether I still need nourishment. As for breathing, I suppose we could try holding our breath and see if we feel any discomfort."

They performed the experiment, and found that they did not need to breathe, which might come in useful if, for example, they came to a flooded tunnel at some point.

  1. They continued onwards.
  2. As they proceeded, the roof of the tunnel gradually lowered, until they had to proceed on hands and knees (Astra's in each case, since Shen Tso's were too short to reach the ground).
  3. They came to yet another plaque.
