Solomon has his eyes narrowed at the Slowking. These scholars guard their secrets jealously from each other.
"The Veil is here and anon.
That Veil which separates Up from Down.
Beyond the Stone it lies.

He turns to look at you now as he says this. The stump of his tail is pressed against the wall for balance. He's just stared at the wall for the 5 minutes of translation. The Unown form an arc behind him, like a doorway, still spelling their two messages.

The call of the Gauntlet, column of stone

With the touch of the Elder, of Legend, of Time.
And unlock the treasure of limits anew."
