While deep in the stacks at the Yale University Library, Percy Ambrose discovered Noah Webster's original dictionary. A note tucked in the pages read: Know ye the magic power of words. Know ye the hand of chance. Allow chance to pick thy page and ye can use what is on it.

Percy opened the old dictionary to a random page and began looking at the entries. When he saw that there was an entry for I-pad, he said "I-pad?" To his amazement the image of an I-pad appeared next to the entry and began to grow until it was a real I-pad. Percy then looked at another entry and said "Igloo". Again the picture of an igloo formed and grew. He then turned to the page with an entry for diamonds was on and said "diamonds", but nothing happened.

Percy looked again at the note and discovered that there was more writing on it now. The addition read: Chance alone will work the magic. Now that ye know how to get an item, know that the item will last for but an hour then return to nothingness. Use the magic of words to assist others and seek out new knowledge.

Percy, armed with the magic dictionary began to help others as ____________________ .
