The palace of Gabordex

from HDK 116 † Shinderg's tomb by XIII SCALE

/

lyrics

You reach the palace feeling very tired after your long journey. Opening the huge oak doors there is a long corridor leading to a solid gold door. As you approach the door a guard halts your progress. You draw your sword and adopt your fighting stance. Rather to your surprise, the guard hesitates as he reaches for his own sword: he has seen the badge of a member of the Brotherhood on your shoulder. He swallows nervously and apologises, inviting you to pass.

You open the golden door, stepping into a magnificent room strewn with jewels, silver and precious stones. Sitting on a throne of Grigon is the great Gabordex, surrounded by a small platoon of guards. “Hail great warrior,” he calls, “I am the great and wise Gabordex and you have come to take the third quarter of the Key of Peace. I will gladly give you the prize you require if you can answer me one question. Answer it wrongly and you will die”.

“I saw some plums upon a tree, I did not take some. I did not leave some. But how can that be? I did take one; how many plums were there?”
