Sketched by Fred

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 814

Astra and Ardua found themselves securely tied to comfy purple couches. They were set up in some sort of drawing room. The walls were clad in darkness. A few portraits here, some vases there, a scimitar on the wall...only a few details could be made out. The only light came from a torch over Fred's shoulder. He was examining them and sketching away.
"What the hell?" said Ardua.
"Fred!" Astra yelled. The aftereffects of the gas made her head pound but she didn't care. "Fred, you digusting man. Put that down and help us!"
"I wish I could, Astra." he said, drawing again. "Something real powerful has got my mind. Terrible magic. Hurts to even hint like this." Sweat appeared on his brow.
"Where is Velus?" said Astra as Ardua tested her own bonds.
"Last I saw, running madly down a set of stairs while some zombie- skeletons shot crossbows at him. I do hope the guy is alright."

  1. Ardua stood up. "Heh. Damn skeleton zombies don't know how to tie knots. The Amazon Scouts can do better and they're only ten."
  2. Ardua slumped, defeated by the complexity of the knots.
  3. Fred overcame the magic holding his mind.
  4. Velus appeared and chewed through Astra's ropes.
