"What can we do?" you ask.

Dr. Vivaldi looks at you thoughtfully, then says, "If there is a war, we cannot expect to survive. I am going to talk to the Grand Akpar. But here, take my gold bracelet. If you give it to the guard, he will let you escape."

"But what will happen to you? I don't want to leave you here. I'll go to the Grand Akpar with you!"

Dr. Vivaldi replies, "Think carefully before you make such a decision."
