Victor makes he way to Dottor’s mansion to buy the theatre, he’s of far is refused. But, there he discovers a boy, who looks similar to the Thief Lord, named Scipio Massimo. “He quickly lowered his head, but Victor had already recognized him.
His hair was tied back in a tight little ponytail and his eyes didn’t look quite as arrogant as they had before, but there could be no doubt: This was the boy who had so innocently asked Victor the time, just before he and his friends had tricked him” (Funke, Chapter 17, page 114. ) Victor makes his way back to the theatre where he is captured by the orphans and taken hostage. After hearing the boy’s story, Victor comes to the conclusion the boys are better off on there own, and agrees to keep their secret, and sends their Aunt on a wild goose chace.

The Term Paper on The History Of Musical Theatre
The recently released Les Misérables earned £8.1 million in its opening weekend, making it the largest opening weekend for a musical film in history, proving that the genre is still alive. But how exactly did this powerful art form originate? And from then on, how did it evolve to become the spectacularly vivacious being that it is today? The oldest known forms of music theatre were the ancient ...
Ida then tells the children the story of the merry-go-round of the Merciful Sisters that can turn children into adults and vise-versa. Ida goes on to explain that the merry-go-round was soon stolen from the orphanage, never to be seen again, except for the one broken piece of wing from the winged lion that the thieves had failed to notice. Ida guesses that whoever stole the merry-go-round needs the wing back in order to make the merry-go-round work again, and offers the young people a deal: She will give them the wing if she is allowed to be part of the ‘drop’ in the chances that the Conte will go directly to the merry-go-round. Ida explains that she grew up wanting to see the merry-go-round, and this seems like her only chance. Although hesitant at first, the child agree. The plot becomes further complicated when Hornet and Bo are captured by the police while the others are following the Conte to his mist-covered island home.
Victor and Ida once again become involved, showing the children that all adults are not like Aunt Esther and her husband or the other abusive adults who once caused problems in their lives. However, Prosper, in his grief over Bo’s loss, decides that the only answer to his problems lies in becoming an adult; the only way to accomplish that is to find the merry-go-round and ride it himself. From this point on, The Thief Lord races to its conclusion, and readers will probably wish that Funke had spent a little more time on the details surrounding the consequences for all of the characters who took a ride on the Conte’s magical carousel. The story has a satisfying ending, although it is all a bit too neat.
