Tricked!

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 47276

As Astra prepared to land, she saw that the crew had produced weapons. Some of them had surrounded Fred, Sartoma, Solbert and Jan. Others, armed with crossbows, were aiming them upwards at her.

They've deceived us, Sartoma transmitted to her. Apparently they call themselves 'the Lords of the Sea'. I think they must be pirates. They have taken a fancy to your hoard. They say that you're to leave, or they'll shoot you down.

Tell them that if they succeed in that, I'm heavy enough that when I fall and hit the deck I'll probably go straight through it and then through the bottom, Astra responded. So unless they want to sink their own ship, they had better not try it.

It looks like an impasse, then.

Except that I don't have the stamina to hover above the ship for more than another hour or two at the most. Luckily they don't know that. But it means that we've got to think of something quickly. If I threaten to burn their sails, do you think that might persuade tham to co-operate?

  1. Yes.
  2. No, I don't. But perhaps there's a spell that I might try.
