NOTE: This riddle is the same that can be found in {{mm6}}, but it is copied poorly into this scenario in some cases. For example, the first character on obelisk #1 is a lower-case L instead of being an upper-case i. The {{gt|green text}} on the right side shows what the text should have been. The last two obelisks are also missing entirely.

NOTE: This riddle is the same that can be found in Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven, but it is copied poorly into this scenario in some cases. For example, the first character on obelisk #1 is a lower-case L instead of being an upper-case i. The green text on the right side shows what the text should have been. The last two obelisks are also missing entirely.

Puzzle Hint:

Line up the obelisk numbers and read the text vertically. You can click on the "Type" column sorter to put them in the right order.

Puzzle Solution:

The intended message is this text (describing the location of the Grail):
In the land of the dragon to north by far northeast,
lies the cache of the captain 'neath the weight of the least.
Hid for the Ship of the Sun before her functions ceased,
lift the stone and you have won; this riddle's puzzle pieced.

As written, however, the solution is this garbled text:

Most of the garbling is caused by obelisk #2 having its third character accidentally doubled.
