"And Old Faithful was saying that Grand-dad Babar was as good as twenty other men in a fight, so then you'll be quite safe." But Mirak's face was solemn. "If Grand-dad doesn't know it's for him he won't come in, and he won't eat the sweets either. It's greedy to eat sweets as doesn't belong to you, and he wasn't greedy. Old Faithful says he wasn't. He was a real King."
That was not likely either, unless the children had urged him forward. Knowing Mirak's bold, adventurous spirit, this seemed possible, and Roy's heart sank; but he started off running again, knowing that no matter what had happened he must follow his little master, and follow fast. But as he ran downward and downward the frost film on the snow became less and less firm.
So he must have been sent by some one; and therefore some one must be alive and desire him to know the fact. In truth, both his wife, Foster-mother, and Head-nurse had been racking their brains how to find out where either the Heir-to-Empire or Foster-father were imprisoned until little Bija had said, "Tell Tumbu to seek for them. If you show him Mirak's cap and say, 'Go seek, he will go."
Whereat he went to the door; but Tumbu on the doorstep refused to come in; he barked, bounced off, and returned the next minute to whine and bark again. "He only wants something; go and see what it is," came Mirak's deep-toned voice. "I know he wants something." "Lo! man alive!" grumbled Head-nurse; "shut the door whichever way it is. I perish with cold!"
