Heather had remained silent for the entire time Lady Rosamund was giving riddles. she was quite embarrassed and afraid to say anything any more when the Sphinx answered her earlier question, to which she did not really mean to ask it out loud, and the Sphinx looked and sounded rather unamused at her.
That does it, she's afraid.
But, wait, what are these? Professor Lachlan is giving treats! TREATS!
on the next riddle, this gave her encouragement to answer. what was that riddle again?
When one does not know what it is, then it is something; but when one knows what it is, then it is nothing.
WHAT.IS.THAT? This is such a tricky riddle...something you'd really want to know...if only she knew the answer...it's going to be no problem..nothing to worry-
wait a second. Heather nervously smiled. Did she just get the question?
She raised her hand timidly; she was still nervous to speak about. "i-is i-it a..a riddle? Uhm...R-riddles a-are something t-to think a-about when you don't know t-the answer...and s-since you don't know t-the answer, y-you often w-would find y-yourself t-thinking about it, t-trying to know w-what that something, or the a-answer is. But...if you do know the answer...t-then you d-don't t-think a-about it too much, because i-it's nothing since it's that easy to answer, and when it is...the e-essence of t-the riddle a-as a mystery is lost and be-becomes nothing." Good job explaining, Heather, but did anyone even understand you? She sighed wearily as she finished her statement.
