@@synthWizkid Have you been taught English -- how to identify parts of speech, such as noun, verb, adverb, adjective word, article, and so on? If not, then learning them is the answer to your question. Learn them.
Did anyone else pick up on the fact that at the beginning of the story the narrator says that the city had no sewers, then when under the red priest's house, Conan says he entered the house via the sewer?
