### 329

You ponder the problem for several minutes, using your natural Kai instincts to the full as you try to discover which of the numbers on the dial will open the portcullis. The image of four numbers--three, nine, thirteen, and thirty-three--fill your mind, but try as you might, you cannot determine which of them is correct.

If you wish to turn the pointer to number three before pulling the lever, turn to 3.

If you wish to turn the pointer to number nine, turn to 9.

If you wish to turn the pointer to number thirteen, turn to 13.

If you wish to turn the pointer to number thirty-three, turn to 33.
