From the time he was a young child, Roger knew if he wanted to do something exciting, all he had to do was say, Grandpa, tell me a story. He then waited breathlessly while his grandfather settled into the Story-telling chair. Roger never knew where he would find himself in his grandpa's stories. Sometimes they would be on a pirate ship, rolling and tossing on the high seas. Or they would be crouching quietly, watching unicorns graze in a hidden meadow. Or they might be racing with the indians across open plains. At the end of each story, Roger always asked, Really, Grandpa? Is that true? The old man smiled and replied, What do you think? As he grew older, Roger observed that his grandpa sometimes winked at him when he asked that question. When he saw the wink, Roger knew he was only being entertained. But when there was no wink, Roger knew the story was true. When his grandfather told him the legend about a treasure hidden somewhere on nearby Boxaurie Mountain, the man did not wink. The treasure was guarded by a grotesque, crazy crone woman. She was feared by the most courageous of treasure hunters. When Roger told the story to the Circle of the Brothers the boys entered into a sacred vow to find the crone, face her and claim the precious riches.
