You should be grateful to us. After all, we're the ones who made your dreams come true.″
″That's a lie!″ Guido shouted. ″Heavens!″ said the voice, with another mirthless laugh.
″You're hardly the person to bandy words with us on the subject of truth and falsehood.
Oh no, my poor Guido, you'll regret it if you try quoting the truth at people.
Thanks to us, you've become famous for your tall stories. You aren't qualified to tell the truth, so forget it.″
″What have you done with Momo?″ Guido asked in a whisper. ″Don't worry your poor little scatterbrained head about that.
You can't help her any more, least of all by telling stories about us. If you do, you'll only destroy your success as quickly as it came.
It's up to you, of course. If you're really set on playing the hero and ruining yourself, we won't stop you,
but you can't expect us to reward your ingratitude by continuing to protect your interests. Don't you like being rich and famous?″
″Yes,″ Guido replied in a muffled voice. ″Exactly, so leave us out of it. Go on telling people what they want to hear.″
