The Duchess's Nightmare

Luca lost his coin purse to the Duchess, and now Lorenzo's hat? This is no good. There must be a solution. And suddenly, he knew what he would do. By this time, it was very late, but Luca suspected his brother Matteo would be wide awake at the University Library where he was studying for his medical school exams. He rushed back to the Duchess's mansion; maybe a few elephants would get her attention. Suddenly, a herd of massive gray elephants appeared just as he'd wished. The elephants lifted their trunks and began to trump it. Loudly.
