Hello? I just got into the Graveyard. The front gate's unlocked. It's not dangerous from what I've seen so far, and the graves are pretty neat to look at. I think the spirits are coming here with offerings. Can't say if that's true, but it's not entirely abandoned.

Oh, and I found a keypad on one of the tombs! There's something written on the tomb, but I don't know what language it's in. It could be a hint?

[He takes a photo of a metal grave with the following bit of poetry written on it:

¡Quién sostiene las luces que cruzan en la sombra
de esta mi densa soledad tan rara!

Hm, well it's closer to sole than sun. The Latin for sun is actually—

[... Hmm. There's a connection he sure didn't make until now.]

Solis. Though it's often shortened to sol, because of the Roman deity of the same name. Is the keypad made up of numbers or letters?
nekrosmanteia: (26)

Well, I don't think there are any numbers in that poem, and certainly not a series of them. We also don't know how many numbers we're looking for.

[Gregor sighs.]

I'm afraid we might need more information before we can solve this particular mystery.
