"We'd better start moving. The sooner we get out of the mountains, the better."

[Ddynamo]

She gets up and walks closely beside you, coming to a high altitude town, the capital of Westland, SLC (don't try to pronounce it, it isn't possible).
It's crawling with Westland soldiers, plenty of stores too, in the center of the town is a man offering a full 10,000 sheets to whoever solves a riddle

[Ddynamo]

((I quite like Rena's personality, despite what she went through, she never attempted suicide, or even had the thought, she remained strong and kept a heart, especially towards kids. She's even a pacifist when possible. Some other characters would become bitter, hate the world and everyone that lived in it, have shot you on the spot in the beginning(though Rena wouldn't have been able to anyway considering she had no ammo at the time), and hurt innocent people, even if said character wasn't in danger, of course, it could just be because I wrote her"))
((As an added bonus, the entire story is quite good so far considering my age))

[flame99]

((I agree with that. Also, KJ, I'm leaving this up to you. On one hand, we could use supplies, but on the other hand, the soldiers would be fairly likely to see us if we go in.))

[Ddynamo]

Plus, there is the chance that you don't solve the riddle, and you still get caught
10,000 is a lot though

Try and find something that looks warm to cover our faces. It is normal for people to do that in fairly cold places so they probably won't question it.
((Also the forums wen't down at some point before nine thirty for me.))

((Mine went down too))
Rena goes ahead and gets two bandannas off of the littered ground, puts one on, and hands the other to you

[kj1225]

Act natural and go into town. If the guards look suspicious then just rush through town instead of sticking around to answer the riddle.

[Ddynamo]

((I just realized, you still didn't need to cover your face, only Rena is wanted here, plus it helps that they don't even know you are in the country))
You go up to the Riddle Man, his self named title
"Yes, yes, hello, I am the Riddle Man, 10,000 sheets, one riddle, can you guess it"

[kj1225]

"I think I'll try."

[Ddynamo]

"I think I'll try."

"Which one of you two lovers will guess it, only one of you, no telling the other if you think you know the answer"

[kj1225]

Ask Rena if she wants to guess.

[Ddynamo]

"Do you want to try"

"You can try, this guessing is completely free, plus, it's one guess per person, not one guess per group"
"If you don't get it, I will after you"

[kj1225]

"I guess I'll go first."

[Ddynamo]

"Yes, okay, great, let us....BEGIN"
"What has roots that nobody sees
it is taller than the trees
up it goes
but it never grows?"
