We've spent all day trying to crack Redman's latest riddle. Ugh. And in 30 minutes, we'll get another one. The last one. I can't let him do this. Not again. At least this one gives us a little more direction; this is the first one to mention an actual location. I guess we need to be looking for some sort of pier… except that could mean so many things in Long Beach. The whole city is basically one big pier. UGH.
I'm starting to freak out a bit, and I think the Owner has noticed. He's been talking with #71 about "other options." I'm not exactly sure what he means by that, but it's nothing good based on #71's expression. I think they've both finally agreed on one of the few "other options," as #71 just left. I tried to ask the Owner where he was going, but he said we needed to focus all our efforts on solving the riddle. Of course, I'm willing to do whatever it takes to save her. Anything. Even if the Owner thinks the only thing we can do right now is solve this stupid riddle.
“And now the candles start to burn,
As this game will soon adjourn.
Yet still you have so much to learn,
If the tides will be yours to turn.
But I fear her death is near,
If you cannot locate the fatal pier.”
…wait. That’s it!
