I am Binder – the dragon hostess of the Trickmurk Tri-riddle stall - one of the many events of the 2020 Trickmurk Circus. This game will run from February 23rd through LEAP DAY, with the final posting on the 1st of March.

For your entertainment I (and my daily guests) will offer three three three riddles for you to solve. And this year, there will be a CAVE riddle!

DO NOT answer the riddles in this thread or in the forum!!! No – that would be giving the answers away. Answer these riddles in a private message to my lairspirit, Emberglo. (Note: there is no ‘w’ in Emberglo.) Just read the riddles, figure out the answers and send her the message with the answers. If you don’t know all three, answer one or two but please guess at them. There will be prizes!
Role play appreciated but not necessary.

Here is a clue for you: All the answers can be found in a HOARD, or somewhere on Sornieth or found in Flight Rising. (Not necessarily your hoard but in some hoard somewhere. Probably Emberglo's - just sayin'!) There is an exception for the CAVE Riddle - those are not limited to Sornieth!

The next day the three three three answers (and the CAVE riddle answer) will be posted along with three three three new riddles. A prize will be given away to three three three winners. Rumor has it these prizes are the answers to the riddles! How very TRICKY! (Is this a clue?) The winners will be chosen from those who answered the riddles by a random number generator applied to Emberglo's private 'Spreadsheet of Wonderful Participating Riddle Guessers'.

This game will continue until all 21 riddles (and 7 CAVE riddles) have been posted. Then the final answers will be listed on the 1st.

THEN – more prizes will be awarded!!! The prizes will go to the Riddle Guessers who answered the most riddles! And ties will be resolved by the Infamous RNG Oracle. (That means NINE more prizes will be given away.)

So Sunday, February 23rd, come right here to see the first three three three riddles, presented by my first guest, Wyldyrn. See you then!

7096069_350.png



"Number 5 turned out to be a TRICKY riddle, just like last year's number 5! Did you solve it?"

"Yes and no." You answer.

Binder chuckles.

"Well there will be three three three more today once our Guides arrive. By the way, Emberglo sends greetings and thanks you for participating in our game."

"Did you enjoy the WAITOMO GLOWWORM CAVES OF NEW ZEALAND yesterday? Oh - here are our Guides for this cave. "


57438805_350.png


"Hello! I am pleased to meet you. I am Strata, female Banescale and this is my friend, Basalt. We are quite fond of - and rather appropriate - for this cave."

"Yes." Basalt bends over toward you. "Hop on to my wing, climb up to my neck and hang on. This cave is on an uninhabited island so we will all fly there."

"I'll carry you, Binder." Binder carefully perches on the second Banescale as - oof - you grab on to Basalt as he takes off.

"While we fly, here are today's riddles. Pay attention to the 'what' and 'who' words - those are clues you see."


Riddle Number 7:
Minerals from deep within
Now freely found on Sornieth's skin.
What am I?

Volcanic Remnants won by dragonflare92

"Well, after riddle #5 - which many did answer correctly - this one seems easy!"

"Oh look - there's the cave. It looks so ... precise and sculpted."

'Very formal and basaltic - like you Basalt! Here is the next riddle."

Riddle Number 8:
This common name is quite a trick.
These hanging cones aren't meant to lick!
What am I?

Lava Stalactite won by Lundlaeva

"Is that music?" You ask. "I think I hear an Overture."

Strata cocks her head a bit. "There is often music here because the acoustics are
natural and quite extraordinary."

Binder calls out the third riddle.

Riddle Number 9:
Our hide is rough and where we hang
You might hear an occasional bang!
Who am I?

Spectral Duskflapper won by Gladicent

"Ok. Let's go explore the cave."

Basalt lands carefully just inside the cave, closely followed by the others.

"Take care now - the rocks are slippery," warns Strata.

"And watch out for Minah Birds!" jokes Basalt.

Binder shakes her head at him. "Don't mislead our Riddle Solvers, Basalt. Can you tell us where we are for the 'Caves Riddle' today?"

Riddle Number 20:
Miner dragons who mine these
Have hunger pangs they can't appease.
What is it?

Apatite won by CrystalinaStar

"Oh, should I tell our Riddle Guessers there is a cave clue in that riddle?"

"My dear Binder, I believe you just did."

#And here is the final riddle..."

Riddle Number 21:
If help is needed on a trail
These shiny canes will never fail.
What are we?

Polished Walking Sticks won by DelightedVilla

Binder turns toward you. You wonder - is it polite to hug a dragon? Never mind polite - you fold her in your arms and squeeze. You feel her talons, carefully not doing any harm, return the hug.

"Thank you so much, Binder. This was quite an adventure exploring all these caves!"

Binder laughs and turns to watch the two hatchlings leap and twist and spin. This is the perfect place for LEAP DAY! You decide to explore this cave - and maybe put on a helmet and try it out yourself!

Don't forget to answer the CAVE Question - where are we today?
