Clue answers, which are six or seven letters long, should be entered in sequence, clockwise or counterclockwise, around the appropriately numbered hexagons. Each central, numbered hexagon may be occupied by an appropriate letter from a seven-letter answer or may remain unoccupied. Neighboring answers should help to establish where letters go. The 42 hexagons forming the border will contain a riddle and its answer, starting in the top left hexagon. Answers include a Latin word and eight proper nouns.
