Thanks! Just don't let the initial puzzling character of the riddle chase you away. In fact, to give you some hope, among your conclusions (of both of you), there are some good points heading exactly in the right direction, and some at least partially (there are, of course, also some things in which you are totally off, but there is surprising amount of things in which you are "buzzing around" the right way of interpretation - usually people's first tries are totally off). Just keep going on
