Hatim walked in the north direction towards the city Himyar to solve the third puzzle. He had no idea as to how far that city was or in which country. While walking, for what seemed like months, he came upon a lofty mountain that seemed to touch the sky. He decided to climb it and see how the world looked from the top. As he was about to reach the top, he heard someone say, “Oh come; I can’t bear your absence!” As he reached the top, he saw a beautiful house, but what surprised him was that it was the only house! He wondered what kind of person would like to live all alone, so far away. Inside the house was a sad-looking young man, all by himself repeating the words “Oh come, I can’t bear your absence!” It was a new mystery, a new challenge that Hatim had to uncover with his wit and wisdom.
