SCENE 4
(The game players walk back to the market vendors and Ahuni's
store.)
DAISY: Hello, Ahuni.
AHUNI: Hello, my friends. How may I help you?
EMMA: Have you seen Abdi?
AHUNI: I'm sorry I have not.
JAY: We still have a little problem with the map you sold us. Can
you read it?
AHUNI: I'm afraid I cannot.
DAISY: So is there something you have that can help us with that?
AHUNI: I do have this book (pulls out a regular-looking book) written in
your language. It will help you learn Aramaic in three easy
steps …
ALL: (all react positively)
AHUNI: … in thirty days.
ALL: (all groan)
AHUNI: (opens the book and pulls out several cassette tapes, as she reads
the book.) It says it even comes with helpful cassette tapes.
POPPY: Cassette tapes? What are those?
AHUNI: I don't know. But I'm sure they're older than Babylon.
DAISY: Thirty days?! I only have a few minutes before I have to have
my homework finished!
AHUNI: Tell me how you're doing on your riddle and I'll see how I can
help.
EMMA: We've solved the warm robes and the switch.
