but while you are correct, I forgot a very important detail that set this apart from the labyrinth .
The ammendment to the riddle is as follows:
Suppose neither of the two villages know of the other's existance nor their abilities to tell truth or not.
You gain credit for giving an answer to the original question. However, I did indeed leave a part out. Mah bad,
"What would you answer if I asked you what way the City of Truth is?"
If he lies, it will be a double lie, thus telling the truth.

The Doctor says "I can't operate on him, He is my son."
How is this possible?
The docter is A WOMAN. The mother of te boy. I've heard it before, probably here.

I've heard that little kids solve that with no problem at all. We're thinking too hard, too mathemetic perhaps.
But I don't know the answer.

It ends with 11.

The answer I for my labyrinth style question, assuming the man knows nothing of either city, is "which way, of these two paths, did you come from?" He will point you to the truth.

the next line would be
311312111213111412211312113211

Each next line is describing the line above....
11
21 - two ones
1211 - ^ one two, one one
11221 - ^ one one, one two, two ones

so on and so forth... the last two lines...

11132123142113212221
311312111213111412211312113211 - ^ three ones, one three, one two, one one, one two, one three, one one, one four, one two, two ones, one three, one two, one one, three two, one one

Wouldn't that be 111221 then? Instead of 11221?

missed a number..... my mistake

it doesn't effect the outcome of the rest of the sequence.... because the next line only describes the above line....
