DAY NIGHT
The light one breaks but never falls.
His brother falls but never breaks.
HANGMAN
Swollag, the famous moredhel
craftsman, guarantees his work
until the end of time.
FIRE
The chill of its death,
You may soon mourn.
But though it dies,
It cannot be born.
RAIN
You see it about in field and town,
It cannot get up,
But will oft fall down.
THE DEAD
They feel no pain,
No sorrow, no greed.
They have no anger,
No hatred, nor need.
SMOKE
Though easy to spot,
when allowed to plume,
It is hard to see,
When held in a room.
EYES
Be you ever so quick,
With vision keen,
By your eyes,
We are never seen.
Unless, perchance,
It should come to pass,
You see our reflection,
In a looking glass.
RING
A precious gift, this,
Yet it has no end or beginning,
And in the middle, nothing.
SHADOW
Silently he stalks me,
Running as I run,
Creeping as I creep.
Dressed in black,
He disappears at night,
Only to return with the sun.
GLOVES
Buckets, barrels, baskets, cans;
What must you fill with empty hands?
ARROW
It flies without wings,
Strikes without beak, teeth,
or talons. It has no eyes
in its pointed head,
but it can kill birds in flight.
STAIRS
Up and down they go,
but never move...
CANDLE
He gets short when he gets old.
He goes out then it gets cold.
WIND
The strongest chains will not bind it,
ditch and rampart will not slow it down.
A thousand soldiers cannot beat it,
it can knock down trees with a single push.
BLOOD
Moredhel brothers, make it rain,
Kingdom rivers, crimson pain!
RIVER
An untiring servant it is,
carrying loads across muddy earth.
But one thing that cannot be forced,
is a return to the place of its birth.
SWORD
With sharp edged wit,
And pointed poise,
It can settle disputes,
Without a noise.
ICE
Power enough to smash ships
and crush roofs. Yet it still
must fear the sun.
ALCOHOL
Today he is there to trip you up,
And he will torture you tomorrow.
Yet he is also there to ease the pain,
When you are lost in grief and sorrow.
DELEKHAN
Death to our Enemies!

Escape the new King of these isles.
He will lead us to glory
And provide New lands for our people!

Close Her Ever So Tightly.
HOLE
It can hold you,
But you cannot hold it.
And the more you remove,
The bigger it will get.

It can pierce the best armor,
And make swords crumble with a rub.
Yet for all its power,
It can't harm a club.
VICTORY
With this one thing alone,
you will have defeated
even the strongest foe.
EYE TO EYE
Three fools did once sacrifice,
To win a contest long ago.
Dobe Oyle, a Kingdom lad,
gave his blood to start.
A goblin man, Ethorat,
hacked out his dying heart.
Sou Oyle, Dobe's sister, won,
she cast away her soul.
THORN
He got it in the woods and
brought it home in his hand
because he couldn't find it.
The more he looked for it the
more he felt it. When he finally
found it he threw it away.
HOLES
A barrel of rainwater
weighs twenty pounds.
What must you add
to make it weigh fifteen?
HAIR
Kingdom fools are born without,
A lot of this,
there is no doubt.
EGGS
They go up white,
but come down yellow and white.
NOTHING
We love it more than life.
We fear it more than death.
The wealthy want for it.
The poor have it in plenty.

Don't knock it until you

And then what will Prince Arutha do?

Yet never has she broken a heart.
SPIDER
In all the world, none can compare,
To this tiny weaver, his deadly cloth

in the North can't hold it for long.
YESTERDAY
Every creature in the world has seen it.
But to their dying day they'll never see
the same one again.

When the headsman gives them a lop.

they'll have a neck,
But not a head on top.

Bloodless strokes, all,
Then forward we leap.

And never romances.

to front doors he travels.
But you never invite him in.

to let them inside.

Beats all night,
Never rests.

just in vain.

They have not lips nor tongues,
Yet lead them green to the pit,
And as they die you will hear,
Them sputter, hiss and spit.
FARRIER
There is a shoemaker in the dell.

Although his goods last right well,
Folks need two pair, without fail.

With my roots above,

EYES
Twins on either side of
a ridge that smells.
They shall never see
each other directly.
RAIN
With flashing sword and booming cry,
With darkness staining land and sky,
The army comes, prepared to die.
Soldiers fall in glistening dress,
As battles are joined without egress,
Save comfort in the earth's caress.
STARS
The wheel is steered,
Despite the night.
They prefer our lead,
More than the light.

When it is up,
It is higher than a horse's back.
SPONGE
Holes at the top.
Holes at the bottom.
Holes in the middle.
But still it holds water.

TRADE MARES
Two brothers wanted to race a course,
To see which had the slowest horse.
Since neither wanted to spur his mare,
What must they do to make it fair?
WALNUT
A box beneath a tree,
Inside some tasty meat.
Kept for a month or more,
It still tastes just as sweet.
PIPE
Its tail is round and hollow,
Seems to get chewed a bit,
But you'll rarely see this thing,
Unless the other end is lit.

It doesn't live with in a house,
Nor does it live without.

And thinner than a rail,
It can still be used to hold a horse;
Hooves, mane and tail.

Though not a beast, has spine.
Though many wouldn't need this thing,
'Tis more valuable than wine.

Four legs in front, two behind.
Its steely armor scratched and
dented by rocks and sticks.
Still it toils as it helps feed
the hungry.

Watch it and you will find,
It has a pitchfork in the front,
And a broom back behind.
PROMISE
Our valiant leaders will keep this.
But only after they have given it.
DEATH
What is this thing that having it,
You can no longer give it away,
But lacking it, for the moment at least,
You can give it to those who must pay?
DISPUTE
Whoever has it is angry,
Whoever loses it is angrier,
Whoever wins it has it no more.

an herb, can help comfort the weak
and the dying. It can even be used to

laughing or crying.

This sparkling globe
can float on water,
and weighs not more than a feather.

giants could never pick it up.

One troll can pick it up,
No troll can stand it up.

Yet it has no tracks,
And is crossed without paths.

You tie these things,
Before you go.
And untie them,
After you stop.
DARKNESS
This engulfing thing,
is strange indeed.
The greater it grows,
the less you see.
LIFE
Don't grow too attached to this thing.
Without it you will never even know it
is gone. But be careful friend, it is
much easier to lose on Kingdom soil.

see every day, but our Leader
sees only rarely?

been married.

The more it dries.
CANE
Though blind as well,
Can lead the blind well.

What goes down to the cellar
with four legs,
but comes back with eight?

You must keep this thing.
Its loss will affect your brothers,

It will soon be lost by others.
HONEY
Though a tasty treat,
Made in spiral towers,
Rarely will it be eaten alone.
WATER
This great thing can be swallowed,
But can also swallow us.
HASTE
Inside a burning house,
This thing is best to make.
And best to make it quickly before,
The fire's too much to take.
WEARY
Plow and hoe, reap and sow,
What soon does every farmer grow?
ADVICE
Everyone offers this thing.
But few will take it when it
is offered by someone else.
STRANGER
You will invite him into your house,
Yet you know him not.
Once you get to know him,
This thing he will no longer be.
LAKE
I saw him where he never was,
And where he could not be.
And yet within this place,
I saw a wavering face,
Staring back at me.
SPURS
We travel much, yet prisoners are,
And close confined, to boot.
Yet with any horse we will keep pace,
And always go on foot.
GALLOWS
When people come for me to meet,
They come to me with heavy feet.
The one I hold,
When I get my chance,
Will turn and spin,
And start to dance.
FOG
When it comes in,
>From sea to shore,
Twenty paces you'll see,
No less, no more.
BARK
Like dogs shouting at the moon,
Or armor worn by the trees.
Like a sharply spoken command,
Or a tiny vessel upon the seas.

To gain Strength, get a lot of Fadamor's Formula by the time you reach Chapter
6. In Chapter 6 on the way to Elvandar, there is a well which takes away your
Fadamor's Formula and increases your Strength by 3 Points permanently. To get
to it, follow the main road to Elvandar. Just before the road deadends, you
should find the well using the Spyglass of Ishap. The Cheat is that when you
use the well with Fadamor's Formula, it takes all of the Formula you have with
you so that you can only do it once. But if you place all of the doses, except
1, of Fadamor's Formula in a bag next to the well, you can use the well; then
go back and take another dose & use it all over again. Each time Owyn &<
Gorath's Strength increases by 3.
Many thanks to Ron Lang for supplying these cheats!
On the road just south of Lynton is the farmhouse of Flarr Wygn. He offers you
water from his magic well (which has wards that only Flarr can overcome)Pay
the 25s for a drink and all characters health and stamina levels are filled
(but it doesn't cure the plague).
Many thanks to Kristine for supplying these cheats!

He has not lungs, nor throat,
Still, a mighty roaring call.

You can speak dear to them,

Yet lead them green to the pit,
And as they die you will hear,
Them sputter, hiss and spit.

Twins on either side of
a ridge that smells.
They shall never see
each other directly.

With darkness staining land and sky,
The army comes, prepared to die.

As battles are joined without egress,
Save comfort in the earth's caress.

Despite the night.
They prefer our lead,
More than the light.

Holes in the middle.

To see which had the slowest horse.

Inside some tasty meat.

Its tail is round and hollow,
Seems to get chewed a bit,
But you'll rarely see this thing,
Unless the other end is lit.

Nor does it live without.

And untie them,
After you stop.

is strange indeed.
The greater it grows,
the less you see.

Staring back at me.

When I get my chance,
Will turn and spin,
And start to dance.

Twenty paces you'll see,
No less, no more.

Or armor worn by the trees.
Like a sharply spoken command,
Or a tiny vessel upon the seas.

To gain Strength, get a lot of Fadamor's Formula by the time you reach Chapter
6. In Chapter 6 on the way to Elvandar, there is a well which takes away your
Fadamor's Formula and increases your Strength by 3 Points permanently. To get
to it, follow the main road to Elvandar. Just before the road deadends, you
should find the well using the Spyglass of Ishap. The Cheat is that when you
use the well with Fadamor's Formula, it takes all of the Formula you have with
you so that you can only do it once. But if you place all of the doses, except
1, of Fadamor's Formula in a bag next to the well, you can use the well; then
go back and take another dose & use it all over again. Each time Owyn &<
Gorath's Strength increases by 3.
Many thanks to Ron Lang for supplying these cheats!
On the road just south of Lynton is the farmhouse of Flarr Wygn. He offers you
water from his magic well (which has wards that only Flarr can overcome)Pay
the 25s for a drink and all characters health and stamina levels are filled
(but it doesn't cure the plague).
Many thanks to Kristine for supplying these cheats!
