An Educated Guess

Alex questioned the two regarding the Inheritance and what it was. 

"I can't tell you for certain that I know what the inheritance is," Silvermist said. "It may be something useful, or it may be something entirely useless because I can give it to you. The only thing I can say for certain is there are the various treasures he would've gathered during his time alive. The rest, you will have to go and gain the inheritance to find out."

"We came here for you to make that decision," Grimsight said from the side. "Do you want to take the Inheritance?" 

If Alex was to be fair, he couldn't see how useful the inheritance could be at all. Even if it was useful, could it be useful for the tournament? Could he not wait until afterward?

"How many years had this place stood? Has no one found the inheritance yet?" Alex asked.
