Had it not been for the importance of their conversation. Lord Greystoke, known to his jungle friends as Tarzan of the Apes, would have paid it more heed. Even his wife, Jane, hesitated during her conversation to listen to the strangeness of the quiet for a moment. Her sensitive, feminine nostrils quivered in an effort to identify the strange new odor which seemed to permeate the air. One? glance at her tall, grey-eyed husband, so much more familiar with jungle lore than she, and she dismissed her premonitions. Had it been of importance, her husband would have been aroused. Imagination, she decided, and shrugged it off.  \nShortly after the runner had arrived at their holdings with the weekly mails, John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, had retired to his study to spend the early evening hours in preoccupied study of the new problem with which he had been presented. At dinner, he seemed distraught, and later in the evening when he excused himself and retired to the bedroom. Lady Greystoke followed him immediately. He told her of the bad news before she could ask about it, and any bystander hearing their voices would have realized that something most unusual to this estate had come about.  \n\"…must of course help them. After all, John, they were our dearest friends in London. Why-without Veronica, it's well possible we might never have returned to Africa.\" Jane Clayton continued, \"I realize it's an incredible sum of money, but we can help them, can't we?\"  \n\"We shall,\" replied Tarzan. \"But you must realize that time is of the essence. We cannot put the matter before the board of our company in London. By the time they studied it, and argued about it, Veronica and Ward would be lost.\" He turned to look tenderly at his wife.  \n\"You must understand, Jane. There is nothing for me to do but go back to Opar. It's the quickest-the only way.\"  \n\"Oh, no, John,\" and Jane moved quickly to embrace him, \"you can't do that! As much as they mean to us-to me-your life means more! It's so terribly dangerous. You know that Opar has always hurt you-twice, it almost killed you. There must be another way! \"  \n\"I've always come back, haven't I, dearest?\" Tarzan laughed. \"I think I can still take care of myself. Besides which, I will take some of the Waziri with me. Should I falter, they'll see me through.\"  \n\"You can't say that, John. They failed you before-they may fail you again, and I couldn't bear- \"  \nTarzan lifted his vote's chin, placing her lips near his. \"You want help for our dearest friends, don't you? And you trust me, don't you? \"  \n\"Yes, darling, but there must be some other way.\"  \n\"There is not any other way. Not if we're to get the amount of money Veronica and Ward need, by the time they need it! They did not fail us, Jane. How can we fail them?\"  \nIt was at this time the silence, and the strange odor, reached the loving couple. And it was because of their deep love that both ignored these warning signals. They had become immersed in both their memories and their emotions. Jane wept upon Tarzan's shoulder. He held her tenderly, and tried to reassure her.  \n\"I will be careful, Jane. It's truly the easiest way to get that amount of money so quickly. Truth of the matter is, the Oparians will probably never realize I've been there again. After all, they don't even know where the  \ntreasure caves are-and this time, I’ll take such small group of warriors that they may keep themselves hidden.\"  \nLady Greystoke shuddered once, sniffed once again, and dissolved into tears. The two abandoned the subject, both recognizing the decision as final. She would wait. He would go. They could both do, more or less, nothing but pray.  \nThey would have begun their prayers that moment had either been aware of the dark figure outside their window. As Jane's tears ended their conversation, this figure stole stealthily away from the bungalow","cbCaiekqruclcTx5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiekqruclcTx5","pdf",684697,93,"English","# Chapter I - The Message\n## The ominous quiet and the strange odor\n## The decision to return to Opar\n## A hidden figure follows the expedition","[{\"question\":\"What prompts Tarzan and Jane to make an urgent decision?\",\"answer\":\"A runner brings weekly mails with bad news from their friends in London, and Veronica and Ward require an immediate sum of money before they are lost.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does Jane oppose Tarzan’s plan to return to Opar?\",\"answer\":\"Jane fears for his safety because Opar has previously hurt him, nearly killing him, and she worries the Waziri warriors may fail again.\"},{\"question\":\"What unexpected danger appears during the couple’s conversation and afterward?\",\"answer\":\"A dark figure outside their window goes unseen through the night guard, disappears into the jungle, and later haunts the expedition’s trail as Tarzan leads the group toward Opar.\"}]","Tarzan and the Silver Globe - Chapter I - The Message | PDF",143]
