And the winner is...the guy with the great big claw!

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 4228

The Snark won out over all the other bidders and gave three bags of precious spice to the captors. The centaur gave the Snark a dirty look while the servant of Hoth seemed to slither away. The others also walked away after the auctioning was done and finished.

A chain was put over the ropes that already bound the poor knight and holding the other end of the chain was the claw of the Snark. Fred saw that the being had just concluded some last minute details with the 'auctioneers'. Now the Snark began pulling him out of the room. Fred resisted by placing his foot behind a stone statuary. The Snark simply turned about and said, "If you don't come peacefully I'll be forced to show you my face. You really, really don't want to see my face."

The clothe about it's head seemed to pulsate and writhe and Fred got a sick feeling just contemplating what exactly might be underneath those robes. He lifted his foot and resigned himself to follow his new 'master'.

As they left the room one of the ruffians called out, "Don't forget, tomorrow at the third hour we'll be auctioning the woman."

"I won't forget," answered the Snark, and off he walked with Fred in tow.

  1. After leaving the 'auctioneers' place, Fred saw that the Snark had a carriage waiting for it. Yet, instead of horses, the vehicle was harnessed to four large spider-beasts.
  2. After leaving the 'auctioneers' place, the centaur attacked the Snark with a large wooden club bedecked with 4" spikes!
