“There’s nothing left,” the old man said.  “You’ve already found them all.”

“Then what should I do next?”

He grinned.  “You can do as you please!”

I thought for a spell, then asked, “Is there anything else to find?”

“Of course,” he said.  “But it’s up to you to decide what’s worth finding.”

“How do I decide?”

“You actually know that already,” he said.

“I suppose you mean there’s no right answer.”

The old man smiled gently.  “What you seek may not matter as much as continuing the search.”
