Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. When Jamal's stall was ruined, how much money did Abdullah give him for more squid?

Answer: Two silver pieces

Jamal cried with happiness and tried to hug him, and Jamal's dog licked him.

2. What color was the paper on which Abdullah's fortune was written?

Answer: Yellowish

It was very musty and cracked, but readable. No wonder it was musty, from all of the perfumes in that tent!

3. When Abdullah met Kabul Aqba, how many times did he beg the bandit's pardon?

Answer: 100

"'I beg your pardon a hundred times, gentlemen of the desert', Abdullah said with great politeness, 'for intruding on you in this manner, but am I addressing the most noble and world-famous bandit, Kabul Aqba?'"

4. What was the only thing that Abdullah liked (not said out loud, but to himself) about ale?

Answer: It was wet

Out loud, he said to the soldier, 'It is most interesting, oh captain of warriors.'

5. What did Whippersnapper try to chase when the soldier and Abdullah stopped for lunch?

Answer: Butterflies

'The kitten, Abdullah conceded, was charming. It tried to play with the soldier's pigtail and tried to chase butterflies-in a wobbly way- when they stopped for lunch.'

6. When Abdullah and the soldier saw Kabul Aqba again, what was mounted on his pistol?

Answer: Silver

Of course, it wasn't really Kabul Aqba at all, but Hasruel, disguised as the nefarious desert bandit.

7. What color were Hasruel's eyes?

Answer: Gold-brown

This fact was mentioned just after Kabul Aqba shifted into Hasruel's form and told Abdullah and the soldier about his plans.

8. When the soldier and Abdullah stopped at an inn and Abdullah procured a gold coin, what was brought for the cats BESIDES salmon, a basket, and cream?

The innkeeper and his wife were both flinty-eyed.

Answer: All of those things

10. Who told Abdullah that Dalzel was always dropping hints about where Hasruel's life was?

Answer: A blonde princess from Thayack

She called Dalzel a 'beastly thing'.

11. Whose petticoat did Abdullah have to be put in (the name of the country where the princess came from)?

Answer: Paragon

It was very, very large, and sagged on him as he desperately tried to restrain Jamal's dog with his knees.

12. From which country did the princess come who pinched Morgan and made him scream?

Answer: Tsapfan

Valeria was also screaming at the same time, making quite a chorus. Sophie had reminded her that she had thirty new aunties and three new uncles who were all bribing and begging her to scream.

13. What two animals did the djinn-dog look like a cross between?

Answer: A donkey and a bulldog

Hasruel tried to change himself into a dog to please Princess Valeria. Unfortunately, the sight of him made her scream louder.

14. What color is djinn-blood?

Answer: Greenish

This fact was mentioned when Hasruel, holding his giant bleeding nose, remarked mournfully, 'I should hab dode. Id wad right udder by dose.'

15. What color were Howl's boots when he had turned back into himself?

Answer: Mauve

This was mentioned when Howl tapped one of his boots irritably on the marble floor after Calcifer had snubbed him because he did not flatter the fire demon as much as Abdullah. 'Perhaps', Howl said, 'your new friend might ask you to get this castle back where it belongs then.' He was saying this because Calcifer would not do it for Howl, only for Abdullah.
