And while these were my first thoughts, the last two lines discarded them, in my opinion, which is why it's such an incredible riddle.

0 Guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 It's not a DIAMOND, is it? Nothing nearly so illustrious. Great guess, though. I think the wording and flow make it sound more important than it really is. Think... more... mundane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. That's what's so great about your riddle, it seems like a seasoned riddler's riddle. But, the many hints to have it discovered, does give it away some. But, even I have a hard time resisting hints, many times. But, mostly it's when I have a riddle, that I know (or think) wasn't very well written.
