The Return of the Orange Balls

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 95201

Exotica was pointing at the orange bursts of energy which had erupted from Fred's and Sir Josh's heads. They were vaguely round. Little lightning bolts of energy crackled and squirmed over the surface.[17774] A similar ball of energy was perched on top of her own head, but it was out of her field of view.

The balls disappeared as suddenly as they had appeared, and as before deep beneath the island there was ethereal laughter.

The three gradually lost the glazed expressions which had come over their faces. "What were we talking about?" Sir Josh asked.

"I can't remember," Exotica said. "I don't suppose that it was anything important. I can't even remember why we came over to this side of the island. But seeing as we are here, we may as well collect some nuts and berries."

Two more months passed. Exotica was now almost eight months into her pregnancy, and her belly was big enough to make her wonder if she was going to have twins. The rags that they wore had deteriorated further, so that eventually they had had to knot together the remaining scraps into loincloths. Their attempts to fashion replacement clothing out of tree leaves and grass had not been a success.

One day:

  1. Fred said: "Why haven't we tried to escape the island?" "Good question," Exotica responded. "We ought to."
  2. Someone else appeared on the island.
  3. The presence deep within the island decided that it was high time that it had more fun with our heroes.
  4. They saw a sail on the horizon.
  5. Sir Joshua had an idea.
