What am I supposed to do with those riddle statues? The ones that you have to answer with the items you take from the chest in the middle of the room? I managed to figure out the answer to all but two of them, and the items I have left are the gagged man figurine and a skull. I have tried switching them, but nothing happens...

Yes, this is a hard one.

Oh! Whaddya know, I'm not as smart as I thought... I was placing the -sundial- in the wrong statue...

Thanks for going through all this trouble just to answer my little dilemma! ^_^

There's one thing I don't get with that puzzle.
The gagged man, what does he have to do with 'Name me and so shall you break me'?

<font color="lightblue">Silence. ;) </font>

Ohhhhh right!! Silence! Now I get it...
Dracoliches are so smart! ^_^

But why would he "break" ?
And his name is not the only thing he cant say, why does he persist on his name ... banana sounds fine too ... I thought that one was a little far fetched. But hey, im not english, so maybe im just too illiterate to underdstand [img]smile.gif[/img]

Perhaps it means "break" in psychical sense.
I think it wants to say: "If you talk to me, it would be very painful to me, because I cannot respond"
I'm not english, too, so this could be incorrect.

Good one, though it quite specifically says -name me-, and not
-start a conversation with me-. Apparently calling him a gagged man, or calling him his name, maybe even just assigning him a name, breaks him.
Any literate english filosofical type-people have any input :D ?

Grinning Skull

I'm thinking the grinning skull represents death, which matches the txt pretty nicely ... so grinning skull could be death,.. what would gagged man be then ?
