drop-off site. Although Jonni was quite shaken up, he had finally calmed down enough to change
back to his normal green colour. The camel walked a little further, and located Jon. It dragged
him to a small hut a mile away.
The little shepherd boy who lived in the hut pulled Jon under the shade and fed him some
water. The caring boy also put a wet cloth on Jon’s forehead to cool him down. It was almost
sunset when Jon finally came around. He saw the little shepherd boy and thanked him for saving
his life. He saw the camel and Jonni, and was very happy to see that everybody was safe, treasure
or no treasure.
The little boy brought Jon some goat milk. It was the sweetest that Jon had ever tasted! Jonni
looked longingly at him drinking the milk, so Jon gave him a little drop. Jonni almost fainted
from strong taste. Jon looked at his amusing friend, patted it and said, ‘You know, Jonni, it does
not matter how harsh and unforgiving the Gobi Desert can be, because there are always love, care
and compassion in people’s heart.’ Jon paused and added, ‘Or in a chameleon’s heart.’
