The older man said,”It's been said that there are great ancient Greek treasures hidden in the engraved text on the Pluto.”
He looked at Philip. ”Don't you want to get your hands on those treasures?”
The taller man had a far-away look.
”Of course I want to get my hands on them!”
His voice sounded dreamy. ”Who can refuse such a temptation?”
Then his tone changed to match the scary smile on his lips. ”But has anyone ever found these treasures since ancient times?” he inquired.

The older man was taken aback.
”But, will she be obedient?” he worried.
It didn't sound like a good idea.
