"Beautiful" says Tam with a grin. "Let me get this going and we can play a game or two while it bakes." H assembles a packet for each of them, stuffing the fish with the sliced onions and lemons and placing each on a bed of sliced potatoes before liberally bathing each fish in a coating of the lemon butter sauce. He then layers the packets in a large shallow metal pan and covers it, burying it beneath a bed of hot coals.
"There... now we've time for a couple of games... any suggestions?"

Tam decides this is ok as long as someone teams up with Salunia. "She's as smart as a whip, but ye've been studying a whole lot longer and some of yer riddles are devilishly hard. So, what do ye think, princess? Who do ye want as yer partner?"

Tam finds four lengths of straw and breaks them off at different lengths, evens out the tops and holds the odd ends in hi fist. "We will draw fer it." He says with a grin. "Ladies first... Fortuny, would ye like to draw a straw?" he asks telling Salunia she gets to go next. "The short straw goes first."

Tam holds the fist down to Salunia for her turn, telling the brother they'll have to figure out between them who goes next.

Tam laughs and tells her she needs to tell the first riddle. "Make it a hard one, dearling... so Kero has to work for it."

Tam thinks for a bit and smiles. "Okay, I'll throw out the first one and we'll all try to keep them simple enough that you can get them... but we're not going to go easy on ye... Ye'll still need to think."
He looks at the others and smiles. "Here's the first riddle then...What won't break if you throw it off the highest building in the world, but will break if you place it in the ocean?"

Tam shakes his head. "Nope, if ye throw a bubble off a tall building it will still break... eventually... try again." He winks at Salunia and whispers the answer in her ear, which sends her into a fit of giggles.
