Yep, that was easy..The answer I remember from where I read it was: Do you live on this side of the city? (source had no river dividing the city, but stated about one side truthful and the other liars)

DING DING DING!

My first guess was carrying someone..bloody well forgot to really look at the map provided and see after sending my choice in (another reason I didn't want to link to the place I found this since others may have choosen this and not think of various other ways.)

Anyway..here it is (and bloody great stuff near the end you all should love)
Though probably start reading from the top to appreciate this comic.

Did you not say impenetrable walls and ceiling? A secret door makes them penetrable.

SECRET F*@#ING DOOR :evil:  I think the party would kill the DM on that one :P

Well it looks as though bragging rights go to Jon Hargreaves, but the actual "puzzle" does not saying anything about the floors being laced with Mithril, so digging under the dividing wall halfway down sounds viable as well. In fact, the drawing has a lighter shaded grey section of the wall halfway down the wall. If there were any Dwarves in the party, they would just start trying to mine the mithril :wink:

Come on now, a secret door?
In that case, I have an irrefutable solution. Halfway down there is an illusion over a break in the wall. Or there is a mimic. Or the wall is weak.
Impenetrable means impassable.

Impenetrable unless the secret door is opened.  The hull of a submarine is more-or-less impenetrable by water, but if one opens a hatch . . .

Indeed, dice would literally be used to check the impenetrability of the DM's head.  :)

Impenetrable means not capable of being penetrated or entered
(American Heritage Dictionary).

I had assumed that by using "impenetrable", you were ruling out things like secret doors.  I didn't even bother to ask.

Well, it was a good brain teaser anyway, even if the solution was a bit disappointing.
