"Exactly that!"

To be fair, he would have said the same thing if Peter had chosen arrows, a guarding mummy, moving walls or swinging blades; he can work in a giant rolling boulder. Who probably speaks in a deep rumbly voice, like a bear, so here goes.

"'Hello Treasure Chest', it said when they entered the first chamber. 'Where are you going?' The Boulder hung close to the ceiling where it waited to rumble down when needed, lazy and content in its nest of cobwebs and overgrowing vines. 'I'm going to find the Treasure Hunters' explained the Treasure Chest. 'Oh!' exclaimed the Boulder. 'That sure sounds like an adventure. I should love to come along but I am so comfortable up here. And the Spiders and Vines always make such a fuss when they have to web me a new bed, you know?' The Treasure Chest nodded. 'Of course. I will see you later, Boulder.' But the Boulder called it back. 'Treasure Chest! How are you planning on finding the Treasure Hunters?'"

Flynn makes a meaningful pause.

"The Treasure Chest stopped. It... hadn't actually thought about that! How was it going to find the Treasure Hunters? How was it going to find the Explorers, the Pirate Ships, the Adventurers? After all, all it had ever done was wait for them to find it. And all the maps it knew lead here."
