This Riddle takes place in rural times, you know, roads made of black and white rocks, people living in huts, poor sense of government, the whole bit.
A father promised his daughter to a man she did not want to marry. After she told him this, he regretted his decision, and tried to persuade the man to not marry her, but he refused. Finally, after numerous askings, the man said this. He would hold out two bags, one with a white rock, and one with a black rock. If the daughter picked the white rock, she would not have to marry him, but if she picked the black rock, she would. But, she finds out that night, that the man put black rocks in both bags, so that she would have to marry him. The next day, she had to pick the bag. How does she get out of marrying him?
No, the answer is not that she would say that both bags have black rocks. Its a little more creative than that...
