Beyond the cosmos lies the Ecliptic Homestead of Algarnon, a dwelling of glass and steel defiantly etched into the face of Kepler 22b's cliffs, under the silent watch of a rock-hewn sentinel. The original inhabitants, a society of stargazers and philosophers, thrived here, drawing wisdom from the sentinel that whispered through the stone.
As legend has it, they left behind a riddle within the homestead's design, a puzzle for future generations. The riddle reads: "Count the Sentinel's eyes, and steps to the sun, where the Prime of Algarnon reflects the chosen one." The solution lies in numerics and lore, for the sentinel's 'eyes' are windows, the 'steps to the sun' the days till the eclipse, and the 'Prime of Algarnon,' a number key to their codex.
Intriguingly, when the homestead bathes in the eclipsed light, the sentinel's shadow points to a sequence on the abode's floor, an array of letters to be read prime-numbered steps apart. Following this pattern reveals a message from the ancients, a name they revered: "It was Optimus."
To decipher this, one must wait for the rare alignment during an eclipse, count the windows ('eyes')—let's say there are 5—and step prime numbers in sequence (2, 3, 5...), each step landing on a letter to unveil the hidden message, a tribute to the guardians of their history and future.
