            "text": "You relocate your bedroll to a flat spot well away from the tapping. The sound fades with distance. You sleep - not well, but you sleep. In the morning, the original spot looks exactly the same. No explanation. No resolution. Sometimes that's the best you get."

            "text": "You press your ear to the stone. The tapping is clearer - metallic, precise. Then it changes. Four taps. Pause. One tap. Pause. Four taps. The pattern shifted because you're listening. You sit up fast. In the morning, you break camp at first light."

            "text": "You try to match the pattern to a mathematical sequence but three-two-three doesn't fit Fibonacci, prime series, or binary. You lie awake for another hour running combinations. The tapping continues, indifferent to your arithmetic. You fall asleep during a calculation and wake up with a stiff neck."

          "success": {
            "text": "Three-two-three. You know repeating patterns from counting ammunition batches - it's a manufacturing instinct. This is a thermal expansion sequence. Metal contracts as desert temperatures drop at night, and if a pipe or rail is constrained at two points, it taps against the constraint as it shrinks. Three-two-three is the rhythm of a specific contraction rate. There's pre-war infrastructure under this rock - probably a utility conduit. The tapping is physics, not mystery. You sleep soundly."

    "text": "You've made camp for the night when you hear it - a low, rhythmic tapping from the rocky ground beneath you. Not an animal. Not settling earth. A steady, deliberate pattern: three taps, pause, two taps, pause, three taps. Repeating.\n\nThe sound is coming from directly below your bedroll.",
