Astra reflected that that had not gone as well as she had hoped. She had
seemed to manage much better with Fred and her other companions back in
the secret valley. But then she had had much more common ground with
them. Probably most of them were more intelligent than these two men as
well. She had also been able to write messaages in the dirt, but here on
the bridge there was no dirt to write in. These men might well be
illiterate in any case. Still, at least the vision that she had
transmitted had persuaded the men not to flee.
While she was thinking, the younger man - greatly daring - approached her, until his nerve gave out and he stopped about four paces away. "Will you show us where the treasure is?" he asked.
