Another guy barked orders to a small army of brooms, mops, and buckets that were scuttling around, cleaning up the city.Like that cartoon, Sadie said. Where Mickey Mouse tries to do magic and the brooms keep splitting and toting water.'The Sorcerer's Apprentice,' Zia said. You do know that was based on an Egyptian story, don't you?
In a scene reminiscent of a classic cartoon, a character gives commands to an array of cleaning tools, animated as they busily tidy up the city. This lively description parallels a moment from 'The Sorcerer's Apprentice,' evoking images of Mickey Mouse and his endless stream of brooms and buckets. The use of magic in this scenario highlights the chaos that can ensue when things go out of control.
One character, Sadie, draws a connection to the famous Disney short, prompting a discussion with Zia about its origins. Zia notes that the tale has roots in an ancient Egyptian story, enriching their conversation with a historical context. This reference not only enhances the narrative but also emphasizes the interplay between mythology and modern interpretations.
