At that time the Flatheads were ruled by three Adepts in Sorcery, beautiful girls who were not Flatheads, but had wandered to the Flat Mountain and made their home there.

These three Adepts used their magic only for good, and the mountain people gladly made them their rulers.

They taught the Flatheads how to use their canned brains and how to work metals into clothing that would never wear out, and many other things that added to their happiness and content.
"Coo-ee-oh was our Queen then, as now, but she knew no magic and so had nothing to be proud of.

But the three Adepts were very kind to Coo-ee-oh.

They built for us this wonderful dome of glass and our houses of marble and taught us to make beautiful clothing and many other things.
