Riddles

[Starwhip]

*clears throat* [Thread must not die]

()_() Hey, it's "Sun" again! (Did what I think happened happen?)

[vexx32]

Depends what you think happened.

Now, has someone got a riddle or have I got to kick this back into gear myself?

[Starwhip]

Bring it on, Vexx.

[Red Iron Crown]

If only someone would vexx us with a challenging, peotic riddle.

[vexx32]

Sorry I've been missing so long, fellas. Rough times. Let's get to it, then.

A playful thing,

Lost amidst the living spires,

Waiting and wandering

With neither reason nor end.

Many sorrowful things,

Cast into the crying abyss,

Tumbling over and down

Into the darkness' blend.

Many vengeful things,

Astride the roiling pitch,

Rent asunder, cast about,

Turned about and cast aside.

One solitary thing,

Adrift in the open glades,

Pausing to watch the passing

Of the armies on the tide.

Who are we?

[DuoDex]

I can take your life

But I am the source of it.

I level mountains,

Dam rivers

Destroy worlds

Kill monsters

Answer questions.

I am become death,

Destroyer of Worlds.

Edit: Ninja'd.

[Red Iron Crown]

A coral reef, perhaps?

[vexx32]

Sorry, nope.

[DMSP]

Simple one:

What walks on 4 legs when young, 2 in middle life, and 3 when it's old?

[Red Iron Crown]

Y'all are supposed to answer a riddle correctly before supplying your own, get busy decoding vexx32's vexing riddle.

DMSP: A man. That riddle's as old as the Sphinx.

[r4pt0r]

Birds ?

[vexx32]

Nope

And yes, guys, it's good you want to join in, but it'll only get very confusing and messy if we have six different riddles up for guessing at the same time. One at a time is tried and true.

[r4pt0r]

last guess for me today, are you fishermen?

[DuoDex]

I think it's a man.

[Red Iron Crown]

Are they lemmings?

[Starwhip]

Emotions?

That one's hard....

[vexx32]

Nope.

Nope.

Are they lemmings?

I can kind of see where this one is coming from, but nope.

Emotions?

That one's hard....

*shrugs* Someone did​ ask for a hard one. Nope.

[Nemrav]

hmmm.....

1st bloc sounds like its a thing people toy with in their mind.

2nd seems to indicate that its a thing to be forgotten

3rd fought with

4th cast aside

and obviously its plural

... maybe..... they are.... weapons, paper, conscription, loss, lost ones

but its Vexx, so I'm wrong by default.... They are simply that good

[vexx32]

Each of the four things is of the same nature.

So you're a little far off, but interesting guesses nonetheless!

[WinkAllKerb'']

the points or the patterns/paths ?

[vexx32]

the points or the patterns/paths ?

I'm actually not too sure what you mean here' date=' but nope.

[cantab]

Ships/Boats? Or sailors?

[vexx32]

Sorry, nope.

[cantab]

Fleas or lice? Lemmings?

[vexx32]

Someone already guessed lemmings.

Besides, lemmings aren't actually suicidal; that was a falsified 'documentary'.

Nope.
