LeeAnn held the note that held the riddle where her mother left in a children's book. She knew the next riddle was in the town square as well. Hit two birds with one stone. LeeAnn wore her black t-shirt, jeans and simple sneakers. She walked out of the front lawn and into the streets. Bustling to her destination. She kept her focus forward with the occasional glance at her note. A manticore statue. was there a such thing in the town square? She at least hoped so. When her mother was alive, she knew her mother loved puzzles. Seek and Finds, and was quite the locksmith. Riddles were another love for her as her mother would actually use them for a scavenger hunt for LeeAnn all over the house to keep her busy and mind active. The redhead knew how her mother was. LeeAnn reached to the town square and saw a giant Manticore statue. Just as she thought. LeeAnn would be seen standing there looking for a trigger. It's paw was risen high up. She looked down to see some strange runes she had see before from the library. It was Valan. She stood there studying it.
Waiting she tried to translate these runes to saying "Pull down my paw and you shall see" was what it had said. She climbed the statue and pulled on the paw. Nothing happened. She tried it again this time she felt something move. Hopping off she scratched her head. "What was that" she said. A small compartment shown with another note, a ball that was red and gold, and a old journal. The redhead looked to see this was her mother's doing yet again. LeeAnn knew. Perhaps Selena could help her with these clues. She was smart enough. But LeeAnn leaned against the statue looking at the note.
