"I've got a few ideas," (Amy) admitted. "But I don't know where we're going in the long term. I mean - have you ever thought about what this ultimate treasure could be?" "Something cool."

It's thirteen times three. It's also the sum of five prime numbers in a row - 3,5,7,11,13. if you add the first three powers of three, 3 to the first, 3 to the second, and s to the third, you get thirty-nine." Amy stared at him. "How did you know that?" "What do you mean? It's obvious."

Fiona narrowed her eyes. "Sneaky, for certain," she said. "And he's quite a waster. Good for nothin' but complaining. Nora over at the inn said he's never satisfied with the temperature if his tea, and he asked for a cashmere throw in his room." Any and Dan exchanged another glance. "IAN," they said together, and sighed. "You the eejit?" Fiona asked. "The eejit is our cousin," Amy said. " cousin," Dan added. "Very, very distant."
