As they stepped into a clearing, the atmosphere thickened with anticipation. Before them stood a colossal door adorned with intricate symbols, and upon closer inspection, the door bore the enigmatic '/ mark' as if inviting them to unlock the next layer of the mystery.
A disembodied voice, a mere whisper in the ethereal winds, pronounced the riddle:
