[One might recognise, through the nighttime gloom, that Sheik is in the graveyard. He leans on a marker, amidst a strange little cluster of four identical headstones.

... It sounds kind of sad.

[voice]

[theeyeoftruth]

That, too, may be befitting of the answer.

[voice]

[heavyheels]

Do you know the answer?

[voice]

[theeyeoftruth]

Mm. It's 'tomorrow'.

[voice]

[heavyheels]

Oh! Hm ... I guess that makes sense. I'm really not very good with riddles, ha.

[theeyeoftruth]

It's a bittersweet little verse.

[heavyheels]

It really is ... hmm, I wonder why it's - [wait a sec, where did he say it was?] - in a crypt, you said?

Why?

[heavyheels]

Well, I didn't mean to disturb you, if you're paying your respects.

[theeyeoftruth]

If I was concerned about being disturbed, I certainly wouldn't have spoken up, would I? You needn't worry, my lady.
