Karin had stayed mostly quiet during the journey thus far, which was actually quite odd for her. She was more the type of person to constantly be talking to everybody about whatever, but she had been tired lately. It must have had something to do with that stupid curse; it was always getting in her way. The only thing that made her feel better about her condition was how much worse off the slimes had it. Heh! Those were even weaker than her current body was! You wouldn't see her running in fear of a couple of newspapers! She was was too cool for that! 

...Oh god, how far had she fallen? Was this how badly off she thought she was now? 
[i]Stop thinking like that! I might not have a tough body, but I make up for that with my skill and general coolness! I shouldn't be compared to those slimes![/i] 

She shook off these thoughts as they arrived at the blocked path. That woman, Miri, gave very vague directions as to what should be done about it, but at least they had options. Thank goodness for that, too. She would be absolutely useless with moving those rocks. At the door, she remained quiet, thinking about the answers to the riddles. 

"Rivers without water? Towns without houses? Forests without trees? Books have all of those. The one about the teeth..." She started thinking about objects with teeth - combs, gears, dentures, and the like - when she heard some of the other suggestions the others came up with. The one about the lock seemed pretty logical, but the elf who suggested the key made a lot of sense when she thought about the riddle a bit more. She turned to the guy talking to... Malakaus, she thought he called himself? "That answer with the shoes is pretty brilliant. And I guess what that other guy...err, wyvern, said about the map is about the same as the book..." She mumbled to nobody in particular.
