"Yeah," says the hippy, "they don't look like much. But we've discovered that you can get the magic out by putting them under your tongue. See Tim over there? He discovered an entirely new model of consciousness in his scroll. And Pete -- the guy over there with his face in the dirt? He says his scroll gave him the power to see all the way through to the center of the planet."
