*laughs* That ssounds really petulant - sorry EA, it wasn't meant to be!

 

Thanks Ithi .

 

EA - Your riddles are really good! Are you writing these yourself?

[Daruya]

Waits anxiously to see if her answer to #4 is correct. (My answer, BTW, was Beslan!)

Daruya - you are correct - and I'm very impressed with the ease with which you guessed right!

 

Key - thank you! And yes, I am writing all the riddles myself...

Hmmm . . . that's a tougher one. I'll have to think on it!

[poetstorm]

Is riddle five - a warder?

[ElusiveAthena]

No, sorry!

[Ithillian Turambar]

Is it an Oath taken on the Oath rod?

[ElusiveAthena]

Nope. Athena's eyes glitter with amusement.

[Mystica]

The Aelfinn

[ElusiveAthena]

I thought this riddle would be very easy - but so far no one has come close! Pay close attention to the clues within the riddle...

[Mystica]

the chair of remorse

[Ithillian Turambar]

Is it a Mindtrap.

[ElusiveAthena]

Nope, sorry!

[Ithillian Turambar]

Ooh ooh

 

*raises hand really high*

 

I have another guess!

 

*needs someone else to guess first*

[keyholder21]

Is it a Mindtrap.

 

I thought that at first, but decided against it. I guess great minds think alike .

 

 

Is it a Deathwatch Guard?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Is it the arches in Rhuidean?

[Daruya]

Was it the Aelfinn or Eelfinn?

[Ryrin]

Mystics, I understand the job thing. I get here when I can too.

[Gabriel Kross]

lol Ryrin called her Mystics >.> (Hide Ryrin)

[Gabriel Kross]

This thread is getting exciting Athena even has me stumped (good thing I'm not trying to guess my brain would explode)

[ElusiveAthena]

Athena's eyes dance with mischief.

 

None of you are right! You need to think about the wording of the riddle. What "quivers" when you tense? Think about "red to black".

 

Mwahahaha this is a fun riddle. I guarantee, when someone guesses, you will go "Of course!"

[keyholder21]

Is it an Aes Sedai's shawl fringe?

[Ithillian Turambar]

Is the answer Eyes?

[ElusiveAthena]

Nope, but Key is the closest anyone has come so far...

 

Maybe this riddle should be worth more, what do you think?

[Mystica]

Ogier ears?

 

Nostril hair.

 

Body hair

 

Eyelashes.

 

Facial wart.
