    @zaph @Stamets It should be “a bank.” People make bank inquiries. Traditionally they have scales to measure precious materials. They of course guard treasure and precious things.

      That’s what I was thinking at first, but since when do banks have riddles? Though maybe in-universe riddles are considered top of the line security.

        Well ever set a password or pin or security question for a bank? You might be able to construe these as riddles…

          I’m pretty sure a riddle is a bunch of glowing question mark-shaped trophies scattered randomly across a city.
