Riddle of the Hunter
If I come alight all born in full growth
If I have a mind till fellows I know
If I hunger not but eat a Gohass
If I draw near to life but have none myself
If I call a master mine of depth below the Goweh
If I seek a darker world for masters pleasure only
I am a true monster.
The Riddle of the Hunter is the most famous Attovian example of a Seven Fold Riddle in which each line is asked in sequence, the guesser getting a chance after each. It is intended to get easier with each subsequent line until on the seventh the answer is revealed. The Riddle of the Hunter appears to be quite ancient (dating back likely before the Times of Sorrow) likely used as a kind of mnemonic device to pass on information regarding the drives, urges and base characteristics of the True Monsters.
