Astra's Problem

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 55865

"You're right, Fred," Astra eventually conceded after fiddling with her hair for some time. "I'll never be able to hide these ears. I don't regret using the spell - anything is better than becoming some dangerous were- creature - but I'm not sure that it would be very wise for me to go home looking like this. Back home they are very prejudiced. The royal family would almost certainly disown me, and I would probably be exiled."

"You could wear a hat," Fred suggested.

"Not all the time. There are certain religious ceremonies which we have to attend bare-headed, for example." As she spoke, she adjusted her improvised tunic, one of whose straps was threatening to slip off her shoulder. [987]

"So where will you go? I'd like to suggest that you came back with me to Allaria, but I'm afraid that my own people are no more enlightened than yours."

"Thanks for the thought, anyway. I'll start thinking about where to go once we have dealt with the dragon. You hadn't forgotten that we have a quest to complete?"

  1. "No, of course not."
  2. "Actually, I've rather gone off the idea. The dragon seems far more powerful, especially in magic, than I had been led to expect."
