[Xellos floats lazily, resting on air, eyes closed, seemingly having a nap. He stretches a moment, and then sits cross-legged in the air]

A question for all of those involved with magic in their respective worlds, how exactly does it work where you are from? Things always seem to work slightly differently in each new place, and of course there is always plenty of room for creative individuals to revolutionize its practice. If you would be so kind, I'd greatly appreciate it.

[He holds his chin, with a curious expression on his face]

For those lacking in magical talents, two simple riddles.

One tooth to bite,
he's the forests foe.
One tooth to fight,
as all Norse know.

What is it?

A man is six feet tall, is a clerk at a butcher shop, and wears size 11 shoes.

What does he weigh?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I'm not sure about the first one - but the second one is meat, isn't it?

[He switches to private because well you can't spoil the surpise]

Yes, that is the second one, very good Miss Ella.

[ She's alll about the surprise spoiling! ... only not. She chuckles. ]

You must be feeling bored to put a riddle to the network, like that.

Perhaps. It could be I simply wished for everyone to be included.

[Could but wasn't, boredom is it]

[ Excuse her, she's just facepalming at her stepsister for a second. Meat is not a number indeed. ....Well she is right, meat ISN'T a number. ]

Well that's very good of you. You must be quite a fan of riddles - I'm... not so much of a one. [ Chuckling. ] I should say it is fortunate that I have no need to answer riddles all the time.

What was the answer to the first one?

[Its alright, not everyone can see beyond the surface, it certainly makes his job easier]

Oh yes, its interesting to speak of things in a way that is truthful yet misleading. To get at the truth, you must think about things in a different sort of way.

....that is a secret!

[He puts his finger to his mouth]

What?

[ Laughing, and half teasing. ]

Oh come on, I promise I won't tell.

If I told you, it wouldn't be much of a secret, now would it. I am sure you can figure it out.

Oh you're no fun. [ She grins. Fiiiiiiine keep your secrets. :D ]

I'll... have to think about it. I don't know any norse, I'm afraid.

There are a pair of them within the port, as well as Loki who is a norse god.

[Hattie breaks out into laughter.]

Wow, Ella, maybe you should go back to school. 'Meat' is not a number!

[Bangs her hand on the table laughing.]

What do you think the answer is, m'lady?

Oh that's easy, the answer is 'not enough information'. The shoe size is almost enough information, but you'd need to know his build to provide a remotely accurate guess.

Not very familiar with riddles are you?

What? I know a couple.

'You can tune a piano, but you can't tune a fish'!

Thats not a riddle, that would be a pun. Do you think you can answer the first one?

.. Oh. Well, they're all the same to me.

[She gives a thoughtful look.]

A giant beaver!

Uh... nope!

[Were you Gourry's offspring or something?]

.. What do you mean, 'no'? Hmnn.

[When it comes to riddles, perhaps.]

Oh -I- know now, an elderly lumberjack!

Interesting, but no.

[If it were Lina and Gourry's kid, the stupid would have been beaten out of them]

Do you give up?

[She frowns.]

.. I suppose.

Its an axe!

[He smiles]

Perhaps you'd do better with another one?

Like a magic axe? That's the most ridiculous answer I've ever heard.

[She then brightens, looking determined.]

Yes! I'll get it this time!

[And he switches back to public.]

I am always hungry,
I must always be fed,
The finger I touch,
Will soon turn red

[What. Wait a minute, she's seen that movie!]

An -alien-!
