Kuublu is not prepared to sacrifice one of his Donkeys for lodgings, at least not at this time. He'll give the Ado his carpet and hopes that will suffice for now.
Ak'kulula is wholly unfamiliar with the trading value of stuff, nor does he grasp the nuances of barter trade and bargaining. However, the great need of Ado is clear to him. At least his need for a reliable source of food is.
And so it follows that the boy is totally confused at Kubluu's counter offer of his carpet. Eyes wide with perplexity, he scratches his head and for a brief moment wonders how he may respond to the situation.
"My Prince. Your wrapping cloth is most cunningly made and is useful for many things. But what the Sitting-Man needs is food. Food that he can get reliably. Everyday."His little almond eyes brighten in sudden inspiration.
"Ak'kulula bring tasty fruits for Sitting-Man. Ak'kulula know where to find tasty fruits. At very top of tree where the sun's rays make ripe very good..."He beams proudly at the Prince.
"With your permission Prince. Ak'kulula go."
