The professor's smile broadened. ″I can't wait to see if you can solve it.
Listen carefully: All dwelling in one house are strange brothers three, as unlike as any three brothers could be,
yet try as you may to tell brother from brother, you'll find that the trio resemble each other.
The first isn't there, though he'll come beyond doubt. The second's departed, so he's not about.

So tell me, my child, are the three of them one? Or are there but two? Or could there be none?
Just name them, and you will at once realize that each rules a kingdom of infinite size.
They rule it together and are it as well. In that, they're alike, so where, do they dwell?″
