| He fell asleep, and when he awoke the sun was already high. He | ||
| began to dig at the base of the sycamore. | ||
| “You old sorcerer,” the boy shouted up to the sky. “You knew the | ||
| whole story. You even left a bit of gold at the monastery so I could | ||
| get back to this church. The monk laughed when he saw me come | ||
| back in tatters. Couldn’t you have saved me from that?” | ||
| “No,” he heard a voice on the wind say. “If I had told you, you | ||
| wouldn’t have seen the Pyramids. They’re beautiful, aren’t they?” | ||
| The boy smiled, and continued digging. Half an hour later, his | ||
| shovel hit something solid. An hour later, he had before him a chest | ||
| of Spanish gold coins. There were also precious stones, gold masks | ||
| adorned with red and white feathers, and stone statues embedded | ||
| with jewels. The spoils of a conquest that the country had long ago | ||
| forgotten, and that some conquistador had failed to tell his children | ||
| about. | ||
| The boy took out Urim and Thummim from his bag. He had used | ||
| the two stones only once, one morning when he was at a | ||
| marketplace. His life and his path had always provided him with | ||
| enough omens. | ||
| He placed Urim and Thummim in the chest. They were also a | ||
| part of his new treasure, because they were a reminder of the old | ||
| king, whom he would never see again. | ||
| It’s true; life really is generous to those who pursue their | ||
| Personal Legend, the boy thought. Then he remembered that he had | ||
| to get to Tarifa so he could give one-tenth of his treasure to the | ||
| Gypsy woman, as he had promised. Those Gypsies are really smart, | ||
| he thought. Maybe it was because they moved around so much. | ||
| The wind began to blow again. It was the levanter, the wind that | ||
| came from Africa. It didn’t bring with it the smell of the desert, nor | ||
| the threat of Moorish invasion. Instead, it brought the scent of a | ||
| perfume he knew well, and the touch of a kiss—a kiss that came | ||
| from far away, slowly, slowly, until it rested on his lips. | ||
| The boy smiled. It was the first time she had done that. | ||
| “I’m coming, Fatima,” he said. | ||
