Subject: Shamath's Riddle
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In Shamath's riddle about the loyal servants, Section 189 of the Legacy of
Vashna, it is impossible to answer the riddle without guessing, as no starting
number is given. The riddle works out to (2(x+2)-2)/2 - 1 = x, however, x can
be ANY number. She needs to tell us how many loyal servants she had to start
with, doesn't she?
