She lay with a practiced graceful elegance. Though small her long gray coat was full and beautiful. A large tail curls about, as she took a moment to wash a silver paw. Her delicate perky ears and whiskers rolling about, till at last she stops, looks out, and grins.
“In ev'ry job that must be done
There is an element of fun
You find the fun and snap!
The job's a game”
Her fine feline voice echos in the caves about her much to her pleasure, but her mind is deep in thought it seems. She was here for a job afterall, but why couldn’t see make it a game too? Her words slip into song next, though slowing, with minor notes dropping in like shivers.
“And ev'ry task you undertake
Becomes a piece of cake
A lark! A spree! It's very clear to see….”
Her small feline body stands as she sings and walks back from her perch above to the center of a wall. It is not a plain wall though. Against it rests a sheet of glass. It is thin at the edges of the wall, but at the center it seems thicker and thicker till it looks exactly like a mirror. It is above this she places herself. Looking out a time or two, she lays down, with paws and tail casually draped over, and the ever present wide grin.
“That a spoonful of….”
She trails off, grinning all the same. It echos along these walls, and to any passing by it might spark a curiosity. Her cat eyes see beyond the walls the one she seeks and she calls out in a purring tone, more seductive now than playful.
“This thing all things devours;
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel;
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats mountain down.”
Then her voice whispers, and it could not be heard by any near. Only in the minds of the two she sought did it echo.
“Clever as they come, clever as they be, solve my riddle please, and you shall find the keys.”
