## Who this is

Three letters in a write-up. ZorenX credits lia with [Arweave Puzzle 8](https://puzzles.agntn.dev/collections/weave/8), and there's no profile, no address and no second puzzle to go with it.

The puzzle itself is a small history exam. Three riddles, each one about how somebody died, and the answer is the three names in a row: Rasputin, Wilhelm, Alekhine. A mystic who was poisoned, shot and drowned, or so the story goes. A chess champion found dead in a hotel room. Which Wilhelm, you get to work out yourself. It went up on January 8, 2020 and held for two months, which says something about how many people know their dead chess players.

## What the record says

One fact, the write-up that names the handle. That's thin, and the page doesn't pretend otherwise. A solver who never said a word in public still solved it.
