correct ending (a-h).
A message for the Inca king
It was before dawn when Poma heard a voice. “Wake up, Poma!” somebody
whispered. Poma opened his eyes. He saw the face of his old teacher. Poma sat up
in surprise.
“Sh!” said his teacher. “Don't speak. Get dressed and follow me.”
Hurriedly, Poma put on his tunic. The other boys were sleeping.
As silent as shadows they crossed the courtyard and entered the great hall. Poma's
teacher led him towards a small doorway in one corner. Messengers did not usually
go through it. The rooms behind the hall were part of the palace. Suddenly the old
man stopped and spoke.
“Listen, Poma,” he said. “You are the youngest messenger in the palace but
nobody runs as fast as you. You are not yet seventeen but you are as brave as any
man. Now you have an important task. Come.”
Poma followed the old man through the narrow doorway. They entered a large
room where lamps burned brightly. A table stood in the middle of the room with a

Poma's teacher said, “This is the boy, Prince Urco”
A tall man appeared from the shadows. Bands of gold circled his head and his
arms. He beckoned to Poma and the boy stepped forward.
The prince looked carefully at Poma for a moment. “You are strong,” he said, “but
you must be clever, too. You must take a message to the king. You must remember
every word.” He leaned forward and spoke clearly. “Repeat,” he commanded.
Poma repeated the message. “Now go,” he said, “and do not fail.”
Poma left the room and ran back through the hall. Then he ran straight on, out of
the city gates and towards the forest. “I must not fail,” he repeated.
