[That sure is a threat. Yu nods at Akira regardless of how dangerous this can be; at worst its not like he hasn't faced death before.]
Yeah. We're ready.
[The Sphinx looks rather pleased and sits down, eyes darting between the two of them as it begins the riddle;] Existing only in light, It disappears in pure night. No true shape it holds, Found everywhere both hot and cold, It is a part of you that you never can eradicate Creeping close without sound both suffer the same fate, You cannot outrun and it knows no pain No need for money and nothing to gain Yet for all its powerful might Its fate is death...if hit directly with light
What is it?
[He stays quiet, mulling over the answer as he looks at Akira. He moves a little farther to discuss it with him.]
no subject
Yeah. We're ready.
[The Sphinx looks rather pleased and sits down, eyes darting between the two of them as it begins the riddle;]
Existing only in light,
It disappears in pure night.
No true shape it holds,
Found everywhere both hot and cold,
It is a part of you that you never can eradicate
Creeping close without sound both suffer the same fate,
You cannot outrun and it knows no pain
No need for money and nothing to gain
Yet for all its powerful might
Its fate is death...if hit directly with light
What is it?
[He stays quiet, mulling over the answer as he looks at Akira. He moves a little farther to discuss it with him.]
Do you have any ideas?
[He has one, but he will share afterwards.]
