[Storybook] Tale of the Blue-clad Youth

Chapter 7: The End of the Riddles However, what was written in the book wasn't a riddle, but a simple instruction that just needed to be followed exactly. The traveler and Dolswe, who had followed the sparrow to a mountain path, ending up meeting a youth dressed in blue. "Young, is that you? Huh... Just another one passing..." The Blue-clad Youth who seemed to be waiting for someone, asked the traveler and Dolswe strange questions that made no sense. They told him honestly that they did not know. "How curious you are. Never has one dared show such shameless ignorance as yourself. If you fail my final question, Your memories belong to me." "Haha, alright, you wanna' take m— what? Wait. You're the one who been turnin' these good folks into a bunch of airheads?" The Blue-clad Youth was testing the wisdom of those who came to him, and those who passed his test were rewarded with greater wisdom. But at some point, people started memorizing a handbook, and gave the same answers, and the number of people gaining wisdom began to increase. Angered by this, the Blue-clad Youth started punishing those who gave the same answers by taking away their memories instead. The traveler and Dolswe, despite having seen the handbook, said they didn't know, and thus survived... But it didn't seem like this had calmed down the Blue-clad Youth. Barely escaping the threat of the Blue-clad Youth, the traveler and Dolswe came out of the cave and met Forgetkkebi, who remembered Palttuk visiting. And they were told the truth about how Palttuk became a fool.
