Quest II....Riddle's Three....by StormTracker5

"Three riddles I will choose
Of your treasure you will lose"
Profelius' words pierced the air
In amazement the creature did stare

"Three riddles, one at a time
Miss just one and your life is mine
Correct answers for all three
With my treasure, you will be free

The first riddle surely will be fun
Listen closely for the game has begun"
Profelius sat down upon a rock
Listening to the creature and the riddle it brought

"Sometimes lost, and sometimes found
Not in plain sight, but it is around"

"The first riddle is easy for me
You ask of love, that I see"

"The first one is always a simple task
Giving you courage, UNTIL the last"
Hearing those words made Profelius turn cold
Praying he could do this, praying to be bold

"Here is riddle two of the three
A little more difficult you'll soon see,
It comes from high, it comes from low
Many different shapes it can show"

Confusion covered Profelius' face like a mask
As he sat deep in thought of what the creature did ask
"Come dear sir, we haven't all day
Of you answer you must NOW say"

Profelius heard those words echo in the hall
As the answer had come to him afterall
"There are many shapes and many forms
Often this thing is dropped from storms

Water is the answer that you seek"
Furious, the creature stomped its feet
"You sir, are more clever than I thought
The difficulty of the third question, you yourself brought"

Those words Profelius heard him say
Yet he was eager, ready to continue play
"Here is riddle number three
Get this right and I set you free

It could take you here, it could take you there
The exact location could be anywhere"

Profelius slowly began to rise
Shock appeared in the creatures eyes
Profelius new the answer to be true
"Dear creature, my thanks for the riddles from you

I must confess that this game was grand
The final answer: a MAP, now place it in my hand"...
