Imagine now, a mechanical man. He greets you and says he will answer any question you ask, merely write it down and leave it upon his door. He leaves, and later you leave a question at his door, and he never responds. What do you do?

Imagine now a place, a wondrous realm of warmth and delight. Before you is a door, and you’re told any old key will open it, and beyond that door lies blissful rest. You quest until you find a key, then the Doorkeeper tells you that is not even remotely the correct key, and you should have known the door only accepts keys of brass, or wood, or bone. How do you react to that?

Imagine now, a castle. In it are hundreds of castle people, and you know none of them. As you walk through the castle, people shout questions at you, and every time you do not know the answer to their strange riddles, they steal away a piece of your clothing. You are unable to retrieve it.

How do you escape the castle?

Imagine now, you join a monastery, then learn all the other monks have been there just a few months longer than yourself. Do they suddenly seem less wise? How do you perceive the head of the Order now?
