The riddle is as follows, as recited by the scholar Norro. It is actually carved on the tomb, and has yet to have been viewed by any PC's.
"Change a single Greek stroke into a single Arabic stroke in the wise healer of one hundred bulls. Before his fee place the number of arms of the enemy, after it place the name of the father who hoards the most flour that is ground in the mill Sampo-Groti"
It is said that Archimedes, that Syracusian wunderkind, came closest to solving the riddle, except that he couldn't figure out the number of arms of the enemy. He pressumed that the number would be two, because everybody has two arms.
It's probably eight.
Arben's Legend Lore figured out that the Sampo-Grotie was a mill that churned out wealth and it had to be churned by giants. It was stolen and used to churn out salt, which subsequently made the sea salty. That would imply that the "flour that is ground in the mill Sampo-Groti" is either wealth or salt.
