Jarlath Is Put On His Best Behaviour
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 9300

"You can come, but only if you stop staring at the Princess," said
Fred. "Apparently
she tends to cut bits off men whom she thinks are being too forward." "I'm
very sorry,
Princess,"
said Jarlath, paling a little, "but we don't get to see too many naked
women back at
the magic academy." "It's all right," said Astra, smiling. "You're very
young, and
I'm not really so fierce as all that."
"We'd already found out that Minestus was a magician," said Fred. "He took the form of a little dog who claimed to have once been a boy called Velus, and then he suddenly changed into a terrible hellhound." "Oh, his name really is Velus. He too is a shape-changing magician, but less powerful than Minestus, for whom he works." "This is all very useful information," broke in Astra impatiently, "but please, Fred, could you free me now? Sooner or later Velus is going to come back, perhaps with reinforcements." "Fred's sword will never cut through your chains," said Jarlath. "I can see that they've been magically strengthened. One of my spells should do the trick, though." Astra looked at him a little dubiously. He was very young. Just how competent at magic was he? Still, she suspected that he was right that a sword would not cut through the chains. "All right," she said. "Go ahead." So Jarlath said an incantation, and made the appropriate sign at the end of it.
