It's just SOP! What did you expect?!

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 47494

Then again, he has nobody but himself to blame! We had called ahead and warned him against his "business as usual" approach to applicants with US!!

Chiana

"What did you do?" a strange, ancient man with the same kind of ornamentations that Betty wore (gotta ask what they're for sometime) whines, looking at the wreck we'd made of his precious Three Challenges. "How did you . . . . you . . . .? So quickly?!"

Who IS this twerp? Is he really the one who has all the answers we need? This . . . whining piece of dren who couldn't be bothered to lower his challenges to . . .?

"My friend," Sigin (still in dragon form) chuckles slightly. "Even though over the years we'd corresponded by email and live chats, you know that I'm not the type to tell all."

. . .

Meaning that while Humphrey here and my mate might have talked about old times. Might have even exchanged some magical knowledge, but not EVERYTHING!.

It appears that Sigin got the upper hand in the exchange, you ask me.

. . .

That or these Xanthers are still not used to magic users who are limited to just ONE kind of magical power. Meaning that IF from now on the Good Magician wants to have effective Three Challenges (used to make sure to keep the non-serious Question seekers out) against Non-Xanthians magical types . . .

. . .

Oh Hez, it's got to be a LOT broader based that the lame dren smashed through outside.

At least nobody got hurt.

. . .

Well . . . nothing lasting, anyway.

"Now old friend," Sigin finishes up, changing back into his human form. "Explain to me just why in the name of God we had to bother with the Challenges, even though I explained to you why we needed to be quick in resolving Chi's condition!"

Yeah, he'd gotten rather heated in explaining it over the magic mirror, as I recall. See, my youngest analog sister, Chi, has a problem with those blocks on her abilities. One thing, see, is that she can't even access her new birthright, and it'll tear her apart mentally if we don't fix it.

. . .

Hey, it's all about how her . . drives have been redirected. The "libido" stuff, you know. She has a drive as strong as mine, you know. Er, sorta. Heh, see she used to like to have fun with men mostly, but with women sometimes. Can't have that as a dragoness. We're . . .we dragons aren't put together that way, see. That leftover . . . drive got redirected somewhere else. In this case, she REALLY wants to learn magic (and it's getting worse as time goes on and she's . . . . denied).

And this Frekface KNOWS that, but instead of letting us get the treatment to fix it right now, he's made us waste time!

  1. "There's a reason for that," a high, melodious female voice says from the shadows as she steps out into the light. "Blame it on the benefactor who has the coordinates we need."
