Turkish Delight

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 72968

Bent over the violently struggling wolf as she attempted to maintain her hold, Astra was startled to hear a beautiful - but strangely cold - voice say: "I never thought that I'd see the day. You are startlingly good, my dear. You can realise him now, however. Leave us, Mirguam. I will speak to you later."

Realising that the speaker must be the wolf's mistress, Sidaj, Astra released the wolf, who slunk off looking sorry for himself. Standing up straight, she found herself looking at a very beautiful, pale-skinned, blonde woman wearing an elegant gown. The woman was as tall as she was, which did not happen to Astra very often.

Very oddly, the forest glade where they stood seemed to have become markedly colder with Sidaj's arrival. The grass was turning white with frost, and snow was starting to fall. However Astra did not feel at all uncomfortable. Nalsa must have been as good as his word.

"In spite of your unconventional fashion sense, I could use a woman with your talents," Sidaj said. "Would you like a piece of Turkish Delight?" Suddenly a piece of the confectionery was in her hand, though Astra could not tell where she had produced it from. She held it out to Astra.

  1. Astra has enough sense to refuse politely.
  2. Astra takes and eats it. It is delicious.
