"Now," said Aethir, "the circle is close to being complete. We must find the peices that belonged to Belboz the Necromancer and Charles D'Honaire." "Could you explain some things to me?" asked Astra. "What is this evil of which you speak? What are those pieces for?"

"There is much to explain, and I haven't got time. We are running out of time fast. The time in which the Dragon will stop hiding behind his troops and openly rule the lands that even now he has begun to conquer is approaching."

"I know where Belboz is. We saw him before we came here. Presumably, he still has his piece. But what of Charles D'Honaire's piece? Does Fredrigo have it?"

"No," said Aethir. "Charles D'Honaire's piece was given to his seventh son, Jarlath. But Jarlath vanished five years ago, when he was only ten. No one knows what happened to him, or to Charles D'Honaire's peice. But, once the other three are assembled, they will direct us to the fourth."

"Since we're going to see Belboz anyway, to cure me of my...curse...," responded Astra, "you can go with us. We've already found the ingredients, assuming the Faeries haven't stolen them."

"Sounds good," said Aethir. "Perhaps I can help you, since you can direct me to Belboz"

They were interrupted by Fredrigo's return from the tunnels. "What happened?" asked Astra. "Where's Andrea?"

"We were attacked by a goblin," said Fredrigo. "Andrea turned into a werewolf."

"But how?" Astra said. "This isn't even a full moon!"

"I don't know," said Fredrigo. "At any rate, Andrea is beyond all help. We can't track her down. It looks as if we shall have to go on without her. I see the hermit's old comrade has awakened."

"I'm Aethir MacFionn," said Aethir, offering a hand in greeting. "I am on a quest to stop the great wyrm Minestus, yet I do not know you."

Fredrigo recognized the name. This man was on a quest to stop the Minestus, because, like most, he didn't know the truth.

"I am Frederigo D'Honaire, son of Charles."

The fallen knight smiled as he shook the legendary hero's hand. This man could be useful to him for a while. He would let these fools destroy Minestus, and then he would slay them all...
