Curios riddles PT 1: In the castle

OOC: Before we begin, Yes, I got this semi from Alpha, and semi from months of planning for SH to open...There is at least four parts, a fifth will appear should certain locations be available in the south.

IC: It seemed to have just appeared overnight. People who do their everyday shopping just avoid it in the streets. Guards and small children will sometimes walk up to it and stare in confusion. The guards were called back to duty and the children were called back to their mothers. The brown gossip stone stood in the middle of one of North Castle's main streets, and defied all attempts to remove it. Should you walk up to it, you'll se it reads:
Through the darkness, through cold snow
past the light and it's warm glow
beyond the homes of the rito
the place where you must go
People sometimes will write it down on their shopping list, then hurry along, others just said it out loud.

EDIT: OOC: Yes, you must find out, using this, where to go next.

Also, the next topic will NOT be up until someone posts the answer HERE!

OoC:
That's a pretty good idea Kasei.

IC:
Aureliano looked around. Despite being inside the castle grounds, being outside in the dark always molested him. He looked at the brown stone, and saw several marks that showed people have been trying to remove it for some time now. He walked up to the stone, and read its content. Snow? Aureliano had yet to see snow here in Hyrule. Yet this was a riddle, and someone was challenging him. Common sense would tell you leave it alone, but human instinct is what tells you, "GO FOR THE CHASE! HUNT! HUNT!" Of course, if you add human instinct with plenty of testorone, human instinct always seems to win. Aureliano decided to go and find out what this was all about.

"Snow, goro?" said the great figure out loud. Brrr, snow is so cold. he thought. Darkness wasn't a problem, as some of his favorite resting places were mines deep within mountains where he could eat to his hearts content. Hmmmm, mountains have snow sometimes the figure thought. He typically avoided such mountains, as he could just as easily get inside from a much more suitable altitude, one to which he was acclimated. He thought about home, his lovely Death Mountains, and the warmth they provided him.

Homes... What is this word Rito, goro? he again debated. It was a term he knew he had heard before, possibly one of these races others talked about. They were all small, in his estimation, the people he met, but some were different colors. There were blue ones and green ones occasionally, along with the very common light brown ones. He thought heavily on which one was labeled Rito...

Green... they go with that tree... DEKU, yes... What about blue? hmmmm.... Who was that musician... Zendal! That was it. Zendal the ZORA!!! Ugh, which are the Rito...

AHHA!!! The birds, they were the Rito. Above goron village, too!


So... what had he found... The mountains can have snow. The mountain caves are dark. The Rito live in the mountains...

"GAH! This nonsense is so confusing... I need something to eat, goro!" With that, the massive figure walked away, a puzzled expression upon his face.

OOC: Am I close?

Azador stops and clopses his eyes.

"Through the darkness, through cold snow
past the light and it's warm glow
beyond the homes of the rito
the place where you must go" he whispered.

after awhile he opened them again.

"The darkness could refer to the night, and it's cold.
The light would probally be the day, and it's warmth.
beyond the homes of the rito???...it might all be connected to tantarri desert.

Deserts are very warm at day, and very cold at night."
he answered to the stone, just like the thing was alive.

OOC: I wonder.....

OOC: Bingo!

IC: THe stone turns red, its job done. A wind comes upon it and it vanishes. A voice lingers on. And to tantari you must go." The people around Azador look on with confusion, fear, and anger. Who knows whats going to happen now?

OOC: :D my intellect even surprises myself sometimes.

IC: "Tantari?...What is there hidden in Tantari?"
He asked the stone, he ignored the people that seemed to be surprised, quite unlike him.

Could there be any treasure that is waiting to be discovered?
thought while awaiting the stone's answer.
