Riddle 016: Child's Play

[questionauthority]

[If you happen to be out and about today, Mayfield, you'll find a familiar-looking ten-year-old boy with glasses, green suspenders, and an incredibly dorky haircut, wandering around while tugging a backpack that's way too big for him and mumbling to himself.]

...which way was home again?

[He looks ridiculously lost.]

Who are you?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Uh... My name's Edward. Edward Nashton. Are you on your way home from school, too?

[welcomehomesis.livejournal.com]

No.

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

...oh.

[welcomehomesis.livejournal.com]

Is that where you were coming from then?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

Uh-huh.

[welcomehomesis.livejournal.com]

Where are we?

[puzzlerprince.livejournal.com]

That's a question I'd like to have answered. I was waiting for my dad to get here, once school let out. I must've dozed off while I was waiting. ...and now we're here.

[welcomehomesis.livejournal.com]

Odd.

My name's Johan Liebert.

Mine's Edward Nashton.
