The Riddles

---

The riddle in Gunung Ledang was tough, the battle with Scarlet Dragon was one of wits, Jali's previous adventure can be found here

The Scarlet Dragon was a tricky one, Jali was cautious. The first riddle Jali was asked,

'What pays when you create, is an ocean of sea creatures guarded by a cat?'

'It has got to be Steemit Sir. There are whales, orcas, narwhals and minnows. The cat is Cheetah'. Jali was almost peeing in his pants.

The next question was trickier.

'What goes up but never comes down?'

Jali thought this was a very simple one.

'Malaysian inflation sir. It goes up and never been down since.'

The final riddle...

'Previously a baker boys cap, now a beanie, draws women and is now called Jack by the babes. Name that person or you shall be roasted in flame'

Jali shouted without hessistation

'@sireh. Piece of cake Dragon!'

He was given the red stone. The power that it has is the power to summon for the Scarlet Dragon in times of need. He has 3 opportunities to do so.

The Adventure in Doom Island

---

Jali's next quest was to secure the green stone. To get that he has to make his way to Doom Island. It is an island that has no inhabitants except the Rock Golem who guards the stone. The rock golem has a fist that touches the ground the size of 5 sledgehammers. Its single thump can send tremors through the earth. It is believed that this guardian can summon the earthquake when he calls for it.

Jali was still elated with his first success with the Scarlet Dragon. He has 1 stone now. Getting the next one won't be easy. The Rock Golem is a strange creature. He speaks in poems and a good reply is what it takes for him to release the stone...Jali was confused. How does poem relate to the duty of guarding the stones. But a task is still a task...he bravely asked.

'I am Jali and I seek your stone. Summon me with a task for the stone is my bidding'
