The Answer is not Enough

Adrian thought long and hard as he knew the answer is just at the tip of his tongue.

"Kanlaon and Saena would be perfect to think for an answer but I cannot hear their replies. To think a guardian could even block the connections of soulbounds. If I was strong enough then maybe I could talk to them. I become like a human in front of being like them." Adrian thought but he suddenly remembered the word. 

"A Human. The answer to your riddle would be a human." Adrian stated with confidence since he remembered what his father told him.

Adrian read in a book that the sphinx gave them a riddle, but they were unable to answer it. The sphinx jut looked at Adrian before it spoke.

"You are correct in answering but that is not enough to determine you utilizing the relic. You will have to undergo another trial. The Trial of the Sphinx!" The Sphinx stated as it stomped its paws.
