They are gathered once more, and the goddess is pleased with what she has seen. They seem to have enjoyed her little magic trick with the floor, although it has since been restored to its natural dust. She appears, glimmering redly in the sunset light.
"It would seem that Beqanna does not lack for intelligence. But tell me, do you have wisdom?"
An apparition appears in the center of the arena. She is small, frail, and weeping softly. The grey hairs about her face betray a great age, and her entire countenance is one of deepest loss and regret.
"Behold, the grieving soul. She was once like you, full of life and possibility. War came and took everything from her: home, family, freedom. After a long period of suffering at her captors brutality, she finally died. This may seem odd for a test of intelligence. But there is more than one form of smart, and emotional intelligence can get you just as far as academia, if perhaps in different directions. Go to her. Ease her suffering, if you can."
The Goddess looked on as one by one, the contestants attempted her task.
The question who's answer will validate your response is: The chordae-tendonae are more commonly known as what? May be answered OOC
Word count must be 500 words or less. As this is the third task, additional points will be awarded based on how well you complete the task, beyond the time and question accuracy.
Edit: Fixed the name of Theta's contestant
