It's not Bridge, although you are close.
Stupid guess:Barious valley?
Maybe a slight hint is in order...
It's not a stupid guess, but it's not the answer either. :greenie:Quote:

BG, your image of a trigone looks remarkably like the greek letter "Delta", which is also the name of a floor in the DD.
Balanced across the trigone's point
Perhaps once where a river flowed
The gods themselves will beat you
If you do not bow before them
And also, a Delta in geographical terms refers to a river branching out as it flows into the ocean, hence line two.
The gods themselves will beat you probably refers to the Mace of Zeus, which I think you can find on that floor, somwhere. I'm not sure about that, but I think so.
And the last line leaves me somwhat puzzled. You used the word "bow" as in what you'd do in front of a god, but it is spelled the same as "bow" as in arrows and stuff. Is the Perseus or Yoichi bow on that floor? I know that both of those are in the DD, somehere, but it has been years since I looked for them, so I don't know for sure. Maybe I'm just crazy about that bow/bow thing.
You are correct feioncastor! The answer is Delta. :)
As you suggested, delta is a triangular Greek letter and also the mouth of a river. The Mace of Zeus is indeed a Move-Find treasure there, as is the Yoichi Bow.
I was making a really bad play on the word bow in line four. :radred:
Which was better, Yoichi or Perseus Bow? I remember those two both being awesome in the realm of bows, but I can't recall which was actually "better"?
Well, anyway:
Longevity questioned
The blade below
You're not asleep
Is that ice, do you know?
But still, you stand
"dirt" around your knees
as still as a statue
As silent as the trees.
Not every line is ridiculously pertinent, so go with your first guess, and you'll probably have it right. It would be cool if you could actually figure how each line pertains to the answer, though.
Perseus Bow is better, with a weapon power of 16, compared to Yoichi Bow's 12. It can be found in Voyage using Move-Find.
I'm going to guess the Geomancer's Blizzard, which works on snow and ice and adds silence to attacks.
Noppers.
Not Blizzard.
BTW, making a riddle that BG-57 or Despotus didn't figure out in one guess is quite an honor!
Heh. :greenie:
Sounds like status ailments, especially Death Sentence, Stop and Silence.
Nameless Dance?
I'm thinking it might have something to do with the swords...
Longevity questioned = Long Sword
The blade below = Ragnarok
You're not asleep = Sleep Sword
Is that ice, do you know? = Ice Brand
But still, you stand = Ancient Sword
"dirt" around your knees
as still as a statue
As silent as the trees.
However, those last 3 lines I'm not sure of. Also I could be way off, or I just solved 62% of it for someone....oh well.
Excellent guesses, but not what I had in mind.
Is it time for a hint?
I will repost the riddle, fixing a few confusing things like lines and punctuation.
Longevity questioned,
The blade below,
You're not asleep,
Is that ice, do you know?
But you'll continue to stand
"buried" to your knees
as still as a statue
As silent as the trees.
Statis sword?
Longevity questioned, = it only has 2 range
The blade below, = it can hit below, unlimited vertical range
You're not asleep, = but you'll be stopped
Is that ice, do you know? = it looks like ice
But you'll continue to stand = because you're stopped
"buried" to your knees = "life is short, bury....statis sword!"
as still as a statue = you'll stand still when you're stopped
As silent as the trees. = you can't cast spells when you're stopped.
Am I close? :)
Yes, it is Stasis Sword
The first line, "Longevity questioned" refers to the "Life is short" line.
And when you use it and they say something, for some reason, they call it "steady sword". Kinda weird.
"The Blade Below" references how the blade comes up from below as the ice is falling.
Good job conan! Your turn.
