"Its powers cost your life. In accepting this rock, you pledge your life to it. When you use it wisely, it is pleased. When you misuse it, it will demand your life. Have a care!" Ingmar held the little rock out, praying fervently that his ruse had worked.

Ingmar held the little rock out, praying fervently that his ruse had worked. CuCu turned away. "That does not sound so good." he said Ingmar leaned forward slyly. "Doesn't it?" CuCu stopped. "ANY woman of my choice?" "Yes." "Even Anna Kournikova?" "you bet." "Well, okay." Ingmar leaned forward again. "Now, about this tree..." |

CuCu looked from the Herring to the tree and laughed at Ingmar. "You can't cut down a tree with a Herring, with or without my help."
Ingmar looked frustrated at this development. "Then what am I supposed to do to appease the Knights of Ni!" He exploded angrily.
CuCu raised himself up to his full 3-foot height and replied, "You need to visit the ... "

"You need to visit the Gap of Rohan. They sell everything there. You can probably find an axe that looks like a herring." He pointed the direction. "Farewell!"
Ingmar glanced over his shoulder and saw that CuCu had vanished. He had begun walking, when suddenly...

Ingmar glanced over his shoulder and saw that CuCu had vanished. He had begun walking, when suddenly it occurred to him that his belt seemed a good deal lighter. Glancing down, he saw that his money-pouch had mysteriously vanished. Red exploded before his eyes,a nd he felt rage well inside him. He decided to....

Give up and decide that money was nothing, and Cucu probably could do more productive things with money then he could. Then he came to his senses and began to.....

Then he came to his senses and began to wonder how he would cross the river before him. It was large, and there was no one in sight. But soon up the river came a short fat man on a ferry. He said...

"Not today! The ferry is closed!" and began to pole the boat away. Ingmar ran after him along the bank, shouting, but the ferryman ignored him. Suddenly Ingmar slipped into the water and hit his head on a rock. Fortunately, he rolled over to face upwards as he passed out.

When he came to, the ferryman was standing over him and he was on the far bank.
"How'd I get here?" he wondered.
"I felt sorry for you after you slipped and hit your head." the ferryman explained. "You sounded as if you had something important to do."
"I do!" Ingmar gingerly touched his head. "I've got to get to the Gap Of Rohan!"
"My, my, my, my, my," The ferryman whistled. "Thats in Middle-Earth. Long way. I suggest you go..."

"I suggest you go north by southeast under the setting sun. Walk for nine years and ten months. You'll probably have to fight any number of dangerous beasts and Venetian toy donkey salesmen, but you should get there in the end. Good luck!" With a wink, the cheery ferryman started off, leaving Ingmar standing on the bank, wet, aching, and very much alone.

Ingmar, however, was a valiant lad, despite his disappointing rugby record, and shortly recovered his spirits. Accordingly, he jogged along the road for about nine miles when he came upon a tall man. He was thoroughly unremarkable, this man, with three bright blue eyes and four well-developed arms. Ingmar thought him scarcely worth noticing, and would have passed him by, had not the man said....
