| Sigh, it's too late to ask, as all of my grandparents and my father
| have passed on to the Grey Havens and so on to the West, never to
| return. I hope that I may one day decipher the ancient runes that they
| left behind on ancient tablets known as "syquest cartridges". One day,

I feel your pain!  My father left me the secret of Warren Buffet's success,
neatly
detailed on some incomprehensible media called "Vydec".
I have yet to find a scholar with the requisit tools to read this tome of
wisdom.

I guess I'll just have to go to Mote Prime and enlist the support of a
watchmaker.
Just one!  :)
