The Riddles
First Riddle
At night they come without being fetched;
By day they are lost without being stolen.
Second Riddle
I live for laughter,
I live for the crowd,
Without it I am nothing.
Third Riddle
Face like a tree,
Skin like the sea,
A great beast I be,
Yet vermin frighten me!
Fourth Riddle
I tolerate the moon and stars,
I can't abide the sun,
Banish me with torch light
And you'll see me turn and run.
Development
According to lead designer Jason Wilson, the team explored Green Man folklore around Cambridge when designing The Asylum Grounds level and the character of Jack.[1]
