Ralphy and Timbo's indecision
Ralphy and Timbo became more and more apprehensive as the approached the waterfall where Dotty the wise old Waterfall Troll had her lodging. Each one was still worried that Dotty would would want the secrets for herself and leave them with nothing.
They stopped and sat on the river bank to ponder their situation. Little did they know that by doing this the others were catching up fast. Not only that, they didn't even know the other were following them, if they had known they would have probably got a move on, instead of wasting time worrying about Dotty. After all, they had no other ideas on how to get the secrets from The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets.
"Lets just do it" said Timbo, "are you sure?" replied Ralphy, "I thinks so" said Timbo, "you do not sound confident" said Ralphy and they sat a bit longer. Ralphy then had a bright idea, "we could just ask Dotty the wise old Waterfall Troll, how she would open the The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets, if she had one", "Brilliant" said Timbo, "that way she will not even know we have The Friendly Troll Book of Secrets".
Suddenly, they stood up together, both said "I am ready if you are" then "off we go" and set off to walk the last few hundred meters to the waterfall.
"Just one more thing" said Ralphy, "when we get there let me do all the talking".
