"A magic trick." Clem turned to the king and held out a die. "See this? Any time it lands, I can tell you what number's face down on the table. Go ahead: try."
The king rolled a 6. "Underneath is a 1," Clem said. And so it was! No matter what number was face up, Clem knew the number underneath.
"Impressive," the king said.
"It's just math," grumbled the steward. Opposite sides always add up to 7."
