Riddles :D

[TheCardinal]

Last try: a photon.

[vexx32]

Nope

Last try?

You haven't even begun to think figuratively.

[TheCardinal]

Just for vexx32:

What has been large and is now infitissimally small?

What has been bright shining and is now a dying spark?

What has been full and now is but a drop?

[vexx32]

Are they all the same thing, or separate questions?

[TheCardinal]

All the same thing.

[Monkster]

Is it light?

[vexx32]

All the same thing.

Hmm. I'll think on it later.

Is it light?

Nope

[Vostok]

Is it a tangent?

dimension (s)?

Amplitude? wavelength? goodness me...

Phase difference? Refraction, diffraction. I'm really throwing things at the wall to see if they stick here...

[vexx32]

Sorry, no dice

[Polecat Industries]

Fear. The answer is fear.

[vexx32]

Correct. Your turn.

[lifetime0fwar]

I figured since nobody has posted a new one, I would repost my riddle.

NOTE: It doesn't have to be an item or emotion. It may be an idea or time.

Fire scorches the land,

while serpents raid the heavens.

Bravery stands in the way,

but nigh, it won't save the day.

In future worlds reborn,

liberty fills all men.

While heroes of the olden

days walk to their destiny.

Deceit and war for years

all put aside to the final ending

when no other option remains

but to destroy all that's left

to keep it from our Lords defeat

Immortality fades away,

while they fight to create New Day.

What Am I?

[vexx32]

Not a clue, I'm afraid. The lack of rhythm is killing my head... :/

[vexx32]

Well, in the absence of all other guesses, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say freedom.

Here's hoping you're still watching the thread :/

[Navy4422]

I'd go with death

[vexx32]

Hmm. Obviously it's some form of end...

The End?

[The Stinger]

Armageddon.

[vexx32]

The End of Time...

Hmm. If he's not back to confirm/deny answers soon, we'll have to put his aside... again. Sigh...

[vexx32]

Alright, looks as though he's not coming back. Anyone else got a riddle or shall I confuse the heck outta y'all with another of mine?

[Vostok]

Go ahead, make my day.

[vexx32]

Light shines through ancient darkness,

Pure and clean and full of brightness;

Ice calms fire as fire melts ice,

Earth halts air and binds it thrice:

Once in iron and once in dirt,

Once in gold, then wrapped in hurt.

Darkness' stain taints lively glow

As fate's chains seem to grow;

Passing o'er clear black glass,

A shadow's wish may come to pass.

What am I?

[Vostok]

I'm thinking something like a volcano... volcanic something, obsidian maybe, even a planet forming. But those are things, and I get the feeling that it's a more abstract concept again. Genesis? A planet? Evolution, geology.. Hmm.

It seems to me to describe the creation of a planet. Ice calms fire and fire melts ice would suggest the ice cools the mantle, and melts to water to form oceans, eath halts air seems to be the planet collecting an atmosphere, Earth's core is made of iron, wrapped in 'dirt', then gold, not too sure about that (could be money and civilisation), and hurt would to me symbolise war and humanity, that sort of thing.

It comes unravelled there, with darkness' stain taints lively glow.... Maybe it's the world dying out? The solar system forming?

So maybe then, it's History, or past, present and future all at once. Time? The fourth dimension?

but as for a shadow's wish... passing over clear black glass, which I thought might be obsidian, but I'm also wondering what a shadow's wish could be. To be lit up? as the world is dying, light may emerge from somewhere?

So maybe it's Fate, but you used that in the riddle, so that's out. There must be a word for this sort of thing, everything that's happened, and everything that could possibly happen.
