The runemaster

event Ridge Road · Events (all zones)

On the road, you meet an old dwarf who is throwing small runestones over and over again. When you approach, he says: "Ohhh, some new adventurers in these lands. If you answer my riddle, maybe I can read your future: A dragon leaves Velkarath heading south at a constant speed of twenty pegasi per hour, and a griffin leaves Senenthia with the same speed heading north... What would the dragon have eaten for breakfast?" What is your answer?
